Trump is trying to bully the world and is getting found out , to our cost and the rest of the world.
Thanks to this war and the increasing length of it , people in this country will lose their jobs , struggle to make ends meet , mortgages will be harder to manage and un employment will rise.
IMO, there is no chance of normality for many months after the 1st day of any agreement. The damage is going to be immense and long lasting.
Damaged and shut in oil and gas facilities and fields will take weeks / months in some cases to even begin to start up production, the shipping rates are going to stay highly inflated for a long time. The middle east will not trust the Americans now, their countries are involved against their will and offense will be taken at the lack of warning to Gulf allies, lasting damage .
With all of the above , there is surely now a decent premium put on any bid for RKH going forward, including any farm in. The cost's have all been managed perfectly so far by the early confirmed purchase of the required hardware.
So any increase in costs and elevated oil prices is going to be needed to be factored in any bid in RKH's favour.
