September 14, 20196 yr Quote Saudi Arabia is shutting down half of its oil production after drones attacked the world’s largest oil processing facility in the kingdom, The Wall Street Journal reported. The closure will impact almost five million barrels of crude production a day, about 5% of the world’s daily oil production, the WSJ reported, citing sources familiar with the matter. Early Saturday, an oilfield operated by Saudi Aramco, the state-owned oil giant, was attacked by a number of drones, which sparked a huge fire at a processor crucial to global energy supplies. Yemen’s Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was one of their largest attacks ever inside the kingdom, the WSJ reported. “We promise the Saudi regime that our future operations will expand and be more painful as long as its aggression and siege continue,” a Houthi spokesman said. The attack involved 10 drones, the Houthis said. The Saudi interior ministry said the fires were under control. Saudi officials are considering drawing down their oil stocks to sell to foreign buyers to make sure world oil supplies won’t be disrupted by the attack and shutdown, the WSJ reported. The Iran-backed Houthis had been behind a series of attacks on Saudi pipelines, tankers and other infrastructure in the past few years as tensions rise among Iran and the U.S. and partners like Saudi Arabia. The Islamic Republic, a target of U.S. sanctions for decades, has recently attacked oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, shot down a U.S. military drone and announced plans to execute 17 suspected U.S. spies. Saudi Arabia is moving forward to take Saudi Aramco public in a major shakeup of the kingdom’s energy sector. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/14/saudi-arabia-is-shutting-down-half-of-its-oil-production-after-drone-attack-wsj-says.html Welp, this might be the tipping point to the "stability" we have seen in the ME in recent years.

September 14, 20196 yr Harold Hamm probably bankrolling the Houthi drone stockpile. Girlfriends can be expensive.
September 14, 20196 yr So the largest production facility in the world can be taken completely offline by 10 drones from a rebel force? Seems like quite an oversight in security. I’d imagine these weren’t drones you buy off Amazon, but I doubt they’re anything close to military grade.
September 14, 20196 yr This was most likely an Iranian organized and executed attack with the Houthis acting as the useful idiot to take the blame. Recent similar attacks on Saudi oil infrastructure claimed by the Houthis were found to have originated from Iranian backed militias in Iraq.

No way they were simple drones - twitter says they found cruise missile parts. Here's some context.
September 15, 20196 yr That is crazy to see the facility burning like that. Won't this make oil prices shoot up for the foreseeable future?
September 15, 20196 yr In the short term, definitely. It will be interesting to see if ME instability will start taking up a huge chunk of the price, again. I really don't feel like it was priced in for the last 5 years once shale was proven to be able to respond quickly to any shortfalls. However, now most feel that shale is a short term solution, so any indication of long term ME disruptions may have a greater impact moving forward.

September 15, 20196 yr And on cue, Trumpy authorizes release from APR if necessary. Real chance of running the reserves worldwide to nil in short order. American producers have already scaled back capex because they’re trying to not Sanchez themselves. For a decade, people have wanted the producers to reign in capex. They reign it in, and then they birch about production. The days of cheap oil oil and gas are about over my friends.

September 16, 20196 yr And that's probably assuming all their P&ID's are accurate. Knowing how things like that go, they will probably have to make some adjustments on the fly.
September 16, 20196 yr Blank checks get shit done but they’ll have to buy some other companies slot in the production que something fishy about this whole story. The kingdom has been shooting incoming missiles for some time. Now multiple drones / rockets just get by undetected ?

September 16, 20196 yr But, more serious... Quote Iran launched nearly a dozen cruise missiles and over 20 drones from its territory in the attack on a key Saudi oil facility Saturday, a senior Trump administration official told ABC News Sunday. https://abcnews.go.com/International/iran-fired-cruise-missiles-attack-saudi-oil-facility/story?id=65632653

September 16, 20196 yr i just sold some Oil stocks i had for a couple of months, made a few thousand $. Thanks Houthis!!! Luv Ya !
September 16, 20196 yr Iran firing cruise missiles will certainly escalate things. imo, some long game by Iran here. They have technology / defense system to take out an air craft carrier and are setting the trap.

They have technology / defense system to take out an air craft carrier and are setting the trap. They risk quite a bit though, namely heavy American retaliation (with a decent chunk of the world backing such retaliation), and Iran has plenty of targets, unlike some Al Qaeda fucker living in the hills. And that's not getting into even more economic isolation - price of oil may shoot up, but if you can't easily sell it, it does you no good. Seems like it makes more sense economically (and militarily) to keep the pressure on through Yemen, and just wear the Saudis down, occasionally fucking with their oil infrastructure (shipping, pipelines, etc.). If they wanted to fuck with the oil markets, they certainly did that. Edited September 16, 20196 yr by atomheartbevo

October 14, 20196 yr Whelp, it happened. EP Energy filed Chapter 11 on October 4. From what I've been able to find online, there are usually few issues with the royalties (fingers crossed).
October 16, 20196 yr I can’t see a universal fracking ban ever coming to fruition...but it doesn’t take 100 pages of research to know that would be an economic recession in the making.
October 17, 20196 yr A President can’t unilaterally ban fracking on public lands but yes, if Warren or Sanders is elected, the industry would be in for very rough times.

October 18, 20196 yr Pretty much every analyst report" over the last ten years has been flat out wrong. You would be better off slinging shit at a wall to figure out what oil and gas prices are going to do.
