Prices for most products will never be the same as in 2019,

That part is probably true.

Because for years and years we had very low inflation and a pretty stable economy and wages were inline with inflation unless you were producing more and proving to add value to your company's products. ALL that went out the window with CV which many are being shown as correctly claiming that CV was politically staged. Shut downs, masks and vaxes were mostly unnecessary, useless and more than likely harmful to most people, some actually died because of the forced vaxes. Then came the unbridled printing of money and throwing it at a targeted class of voters. This is becoming clearer every day and that is just the tip of the iceberg. A bad genie was unleashed and the effects are higher prices and money which is worth less and less.

No one should worry since this inflation is transitory. Oh, wait !!

And the bidenconomy has reduced the domestic produced supply significantly and the supply from outside the country which he insists we must buy is from countries who are seeking our destruction and are able to get a higher price for their oil because of our reduced domestic production.

I’m not defending the current or any past administration, but let’s not base our discussion on misinformation. Especially since oil production is largely dependent on industry business decisions and world markets, not presidential influence. There was no reduction in domestic petroleum supply in 2023. In fact the U.S. petroleum industry will set a new high for production in 2023.

Doubters Beware: U.S. Oil Production Is Setting New Records

U.S. oil production is running at an all-time high, and on pace to set a new annual production record this year.

US crude output to rise to record 12.76 million bpd in 2023 - EIA

U.S. crude oil production is expected to rise by 850,000 barrels per day to record 12.76 million bpd in 2023, according to a monthly report from the Energy Information Administration on Tuesday.

I have to agree, not about your medical statements, but the remainder of your comment.

I'm not going to engage in a battle of hyperlinks.

I can find 10 counters to everyone you post and vice-versa. State your opinions and succienct reasons for them.

Goodnight!

You are trying to hit a "re-set button" and say that since it's done, it's done and we all should just move along, this is the 'new normal' and we just need to like it and get used to it.

If the next administration does what DJT said recently, that he would shut down the border and restore all domestic oil production that was shut down in the bidenconomy (which was done in almost one day, btw) then we actually have the beginning of a chance to restore sanity to our economy.

Gracious to Goodness, after OCare and Bidenconomics and border policies we sure need some sanity in this country.

There is more domestic oil production in 2023 than ANY previous year. This talk of “restoring oil production” is simply nonsense. If DJT would “restore “ production to 2019 levels, the U.S. would be producing less oil than we are currently.

There are no counters to actual production reported by industry. This is simply a fact.

 

[jyoutz]

This is where I see you mirroring the tactics of OBiden.

He was not talking about limiting it to 2019 levels; that is how you want to frame it.

DJT was talking about opening the spigot to the full flow. Anwar and everything, WOT. Drill, Baby, Drill!

Goodnight!

Industry is going WOT and in fact has labor shortages limiting current production. The industry has largely soured on Alaska oil due to high production costs and has chosen to go WOT in the Permian Basin and gulf coast where oil production and transportation to refineries and markets is more economically favorable. Chevron turned back their Alaska permits because of the high costs of operating in Alaska. Good night. Sleep well.

BS
It would go higher.

We ALL know the US is capable of producing WAY more oil & gas.
WAY more.

Just like we can keep 10 million illegals from entering the southern border.

Few people do purchases with cash anymore. A credit card purchase doesn’t mean it is a debt situation. Some of us use them regularly for cash back and fraud protection, then pay the card off each month.

What percentage would you estimate are able to pay off their cards in full each month ? My guess it would be in the single digits.

For 2023, I agree. Oil production is up. However, US oil exports and refinery exports are up too. That has a large effect on our domestic prices. Meaning, just because our production is up, doesn’t mean it’s benefiting the US consumers.

I agree completely. But exporting petroleum products are a private industry decision. Congress authorized these exports in 2015 and the U.S. is now a primary player on the world market. And world market traders determine pricing levels.

There will be more domestic production in 2023 than 2019, and more than any other year since 1920. Oil production is a cyclical business as wells dry up, new wells are drilled, and the price of crude oil changes. There was a decline in production from the high of November 2019 but it started before any change in policy or election results were known. Since February 2021 domestic production has actually been on a steady rise. From just a year ago domestic production is up over a million barrels a day using the 4-week average, an 8.7% increase.

Wells are still being drilled in the Permian Basin just as fast as the production company can get a permit to drill from the state and a drill rig becomes available. The federal government does not have a say on what drilling happens on private land. And domestic production on federal property only accounts for about 25% of domestic production.

The greatest impact is that the midstream capacity to move product to the refineries and the downstream capacity to refine oil has not kept up with the increase in domestic upstream production of light sweet crude. US refineries were built to refine heavy sour crude, which yields more product per barrel refined, making it more profitable. That is why some West Texas Intermediate crude is shipped overseas to be refined and then the finished products are imported back. As more refineries come online that can refine light sweet crude, those numbers will change. And the midstream capacity is being increased to move product. We just received another ROW offer to put in a 48" line down one side of our property in West Texas, one of several this year.

Here are the historical average daily domestic production numbers in 1,000 bbl/day averages. As you can see so far, every month reported in 2023 is higher than the corresponding month in 2019.

Thanks for posting facts. I want to add that drilling and production haven’t been shut down on most federal lands. Companies hold leases on over 10 million acres of federal lands, and there’s a lot of current activity on BLM lands in the Permian Basin in New Mexico.

Almost there.

I’m not disputing more oil wasn’t produced from ‘19-‘23. I’m saying I want to see more produced, so prices come down and policy more friendly to fossil fuel production.

You simply refuse to get it. There may be more today than yesterday or last year or 2019. But without the Bidenomics being in the way there would be much, much more.
Stop being obtuse.
