"""In our long-term outlook we currently see oil demand growing steadily in the 2020s and peaking in the late-2030s, as we incorporate moderate technological shifts and accelerated efficiency gains that will flatten on-road transportation demand and petrochemical feedstock demand growth towards 2040....""

One of these days the "macros" will have some positive effect on the SP.

S'pose it'd help if we get oil to the surface

The gas network was for coalgas , methane rather than hydrogen, I think

"""A new player to Alaska, Lagniappe Alaska LLC, dominated the sealed-bid sale by winning rights to 120 leases over a large area south of Deadhorse along the Dalton Highway. State officials present at the sale knew little about Lagniappe and audience members speculated amongst themselves how to spell it (pronounced lan-yap) as the bids were read aloud.

Lagniappe Alaska LLC was formed in the state on Nov. 7 and is based in Lafayette, Louisiana, according to filings with the state Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing.

No one came forward when Deputy Oil and Gas Director Jim Beckham asked if a Lagniappe representative was present at the bid opening.

“We appreciate our new player,” Walsh said. Overall, Lagniappe spent $14.1 million to secure rights to 195,200 acres of state land, according to a division report of the North Slope sale.

Not to be outdone, Spanish major Repsol, which along with Armstrong Energy discovered the large Pikka prospect, spent between $175 and $586 per acre on the few remaining available leases just to the south and east of the Pikka Unit. “Repsol is definitely here to play,” Walsh commented. Repsol committed just more than $13 million for 12 leases covering 26,560 acres, according to the lease sale summary. ""

""" ...... global oil production has surged by over 20 percent in the past 15 years. The great rise has put to bed the “peak oil production” theory but it has not stopped the apparent new concern of “peak oil demand,” now portrayed as perhaps the main threat to the future of the world’s oil industry. In fact, it’s hardly just anti-oil environmental groups; many of the major producers themselves (Royal Dutch Shell plc in particular) assert that global oil consumption will soon peak and thereafter begin its terminal decline.... ....oil is so important that demand is ever-growing: 61 million barrels per day (MMbpd) in 1980, 77 MMbpd in 2000, and 100 MMbpd this year. Over the past 33 years, annual global oil demand has only failed to increase three times, tellingly all during times of economic recession. ""

""A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on.

A misreporting of an actual quote praising the trustworthiness of a colleague: "His verbal contract is worth more than the paper it's written on". The identity of the colleague is variously reported as Joseph M. Schenk in Paul F. Boller, John George, They Never Said It (1990), p. 42, or as Joseph L. Mankiewicz in Carol Easton, The Search for Sam Goldwyn (1976). Goldwyn himself was reportedly aware of - and pleased by - the misattribution.

Our comedies are not to be laughed at.

I can answer you in two words: im-possible!

Anyone who would go to a psychiatrist ought to have his head examined!

Reported in Paul F. Boller, John George, They Never Said It (1990), p. 42. A similar quote appears in the landmark book by Hollingshead and Redlich, ``Social Class and Mental Illness (1958), p. 237: The old saw, "Anyone who goes to a psychiatrist should have his head examined," is applicable here.
