Oil shortage? Sources charge U.S. influence inflates world’s supply
Filed under: Energy, Economy, People
Will the world soon run out of oil or are we swimming in the stuff? That debate just got a little murkier following a report in the Guardian newspaper that figures detailing how much oil the world has on tap have been distorted in deference to the United States. The report quotes a current employee and a former staffer at the International Energy Agency, an intergovernmental group that coordinates measures during oil-supply emergencies, among other tasks.
Despite forecasts that call for production to steadily rise by 2030, the world will likely instead see output decline, the U.K.-based newspaper reports, quoting an anonymous whistleblower at the IEA.

Hurricane Ida’s trip through Gulf of Mexico could push oil prices higher
Nov 8, 2009 Object
Filed under: Energy
It has been months since a hurricane posed a real threat to oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. Now, Hurricane Ida is entering the region from the west after doing significant damage in Nicaragua.
Most hurricanes that move into the Gulf end up doing very little damage to either deep sea drilling platforms or the refineries around Houston, but traders still get nervous about the potential interruption in oil supply. According to the Financial Times, the Gulf of Mexico accounts for almost 25% of U.S. oil production.
