Oil and Gas News Briefs, July 26, 2021
Oil and Gas News Briefs Compiled by Larry Persily July 26, 2021 Saudis want to be ‘last man standing’ as oil demand declines (Bloomberg; July 21) – Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman’s decisions after flying home from a tumultuous OPEC meeting in Vienna in March 2020 exposed a new Saudi policy — bolder, defiant of a growing global consensus on climate change, and more controlled by the royal family. They also reflected what Abdulaziz sees as his destiny: To ensure that the last barrel of oil on Earth comes from a Saudi well. As he said at a private event in June, according to a source, “We are still going to be the last man standing, and every molecule of hydrocarbon will come out.” All of this has huge implications for world energy markets. Abdulaziz, the first member of the royal family to be the kingdom’s energy minister, is the most important person in the oil market today. But a rancorous OPEC+ meeting in July showed just how difficult it’s going to be for him to consistently get his way in an era when oil-producing nations — their self-interests often in conflict — are contemplating a future of declining oil demand. Saudi Arabia’s power is under threat as the world seeks to move away from oil and other fossil fuels. Beneath the kingdom’s desert there are about 265 billion barrels of oil, worth almost $20 trillion at current prices. It’s a massive prize, but one that may be worthless someday if the global economy figures out how to keep churning without oil. -

Joint Stewardship of the Barents Sea: Russian and Norwegian Policy Expectations for Preventing Offshore Oil Spills

Bouffard, B.A. A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Arctic and Northern Studies © Troy J. Bouffard APPROVED: Brandon M. Boylan, Committee Chair Mary F. Ehrlander, Committee Member Brian Kassof, Committee Member Mary F. Ehrlander, Director Arctic and Northern Studies Program Todd Sherman, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts Michael A. Castellini, Interim Dean Graduate School Abstract As Arctic environmental conditions fluctuate, ongoing economic-related agreements established for the Barents Region continue to support and attract Norwegian and Russian oil- producing expeditions within the shared maritime zone. Increased industrial activity throughout the Circumpolar North heightens the need to understand the factors that influence policies responsible for protecting the environment - in particular, preventive measures. Agency theory provides the framework for an analysis of various dynamics that influence the Norwegian and Russian governments (principals) as they develop and enforce rules that regulate petroleum industries (agents). The research question asks about differences between the prevention policies of the two nations even though both acknowledge a very similar need to protect the Barents. Since the regulatory and governance structures cannot fully explain the differences between the two countries’ prevention policies, the hypothesis presents an argument that the strategic goals of Norway and Russia in the global political economy provide sufficient conditions for policy divergence. -

Preliminary Calculation of the EROI for the Production of Crude Oil and Light Oil Products in Russia
Sustainability 2014, 6, 5801-5819; doi:10.3390/su6095801 OPEN ACCESS sustainability ISSN 2071-1050 www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability Article Preliminary Calculation of the EROI for the Production of Crude Oil and Light Oil Products in Russia Alexander Safronov and Anton Sokolov * Laboratory of Geology of Oil and Gas Fields, Institute of Oil and Gas Problems SB RAS, Oktyabrskaya 1, Yakutsk 677980, Russia; E-Mail: [email protected] * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-4112-390-620. Received: 14 May 2014; in revised form: 25 July 2014 / Accepted: 25 August 2014 / Published: 1 September 2014 Abstract: Russia is one of the world’s largest producers of energy resources. The production of energy resources in Russia is profitable both economically and in terms of energy production. Currently, Russian oil and gas companies have a policy of increasing energy efficiency, which will led to an increase in the energy return on investment (EROI) of both oil and gas production as a whole, and of separate companies in particular. By our calculations, the EROI for oil production in Russia differs for the different companies, and in 2012 was in the range of 22–35:1. The EROI for light oil products in 2012 was in the range of 5–13:1. Keywords: EROI; oil production; Russia 1. Introduction Over the last 110 years, the annual consumption of energy resources in the world has increased 20 times from 0.6 in 1900 to 12.4 billion tons of oil equivalent (toe) in 2012 [1,2]. -
