[@adridell]

The US was running out of oil before shale oil. It takes 30 seconds to look at a graph and see that the US had an oil production peak during the 70's just like M. King Hubbert predicted in the 50's, that is conventional oil. That's what made the US a big importer of oil since then and created tensions between the US and other regions of the world and contributed to wars like Irak to ensure sufficient supply of oil for the US which was increasingly becoming a massive importer. The US stopped declining ever since it became capable of exploiting shale oil, which is environmentally a disaster even compared to traditional drilling, and it's EROI (Energy Return on Investment) is really bad too compared to conventional oil, so it's terrible from a transition and environmental perspective, but has allowed the US to restart it's economic machine and to some degree restart the world economy too by becoming once again the biggest oil producer in the world.

@@Desperate-Drive3423 When world oil production starts to decline it will not translate into continually increasing oil prices. Oil is an essential ressource for the economy to function and thus, what matters with oil is the amount that is produced not it's price. When oil starts to decline prices will indeed rise, but since that means less oil it will fundamentally also change the purchasing power of demand, since less oil means less economy, and thus demand will drop too, when oil starts to become scarcer it will translate into continually unstable prices, not by continually increasing prices, because both, the offer and demand of the market will change according to how much oil is available and thus how much economy is possible, prices of essential ressources like oil do not determine how much economy we may have, it is the amount we extract that matters, because oil structures our economy and without oil there is no economy.

Just imagine, there are countries out there who harnessed their natural resources to build a sovereign wealth fund for the benefit of their citizens which will be around long after the oil drys up. In contrast, we decided funneling the profits to massive, multinational corporations was the way to go. It's so moronic.

[@pranshukrishna5105]

The majority of Countries with Sovereign Wealth Funds have large surpluses in their budgets. The reason is they have major extractive industries within their countries that produce more income than they choose to spend on themselves. So they keep the extra money and use it to invest in commercial opportunities. In general this is a good idea. The commodity they are extracting will some day dry up. If the spent it all now they would have an economy they could not support in the future when the income stream no longer existed. Other countries use their sovereign wealth funds to invest in businesses they government thinks are important. The government is picking and choosing what it thinks is best circumventing the normal capitalist process. Several states within the United States have sovereign wealth funds. My question to those that think the money held in the federal governments trust funds should be invested is do you really want the federal government being a major owner of private businesses? Do you really want that level of influence which would be inherently political? The United States has a different approach. It funds many major research institutes that produce basic science which is then available to be developed and commercially used.

For the same fact that business is booming so an increase in supply will guarantee a decrease in prices. Expectations of Future Supply and Demand: If traders expect that future supply will exceed demand, they might sell futures contracts at a lower price to hedge against potential losses. This expectation can be influenced by factors such as increased production, technological advancements, or geopolitical stability.

A different online data set based on fiscal year 2020 accounting data calculates the average net profit margin for the oil and gas production and exploration sector at about 2.8% This is just on the upstream side and includes cost for buying seismic data, geotech analysis, appraisal, further exploration, development, drilling, and producing. This doesn't then include the midstream and downstream costs or profits. Transport from asset to refinery, cost of refining, cost to transport and sell. Not all oil produced can be made into every needed product and can't be refined at every refinery. It's crazy complicated and they just scratch the surface in this video.

And that almost every laptop and PC in the world uses less electricity because most of the world's apps have had their processing moved to a data center.

It's funny how many people think this is already how it works, that we need to "drill more here" to lower prices, when that's never been how it works.

The solution to the "wind energy is nice when they when the wind is blowing" and "solar energy is nice when the sun is shining" is super simple. Pumped storage hydroelectricity. Whenever renewable energy has a surplus of power, pump water to an upper reservoir, then during off hours for renewables or peak hours simply release the water through penstocks and turbines to generate power. No need for batteries or additional transmission infrastructure.

[@krysatheo]

Those are good, but they make the most sense in cooler climates where there's natural topography to build those reservoirs. I think we also need to look at nuclear, especially small modular reactors to help meet base load demands.

[@NederlandsTransatlanticus]

@krysatheo Well, people are working on alternatives. Here in the Netherlands for years we're looking for a way to implement hydropower in a flat country. There was a plan for an underground hydroelectric powerplant at an abandoned mine in Limburg province. However, that project never seriously left the design phase. However, now we've a new way store hydroelectric power at the bottom of the sea or at the bottom of lake. The company "Ocean Gazer" has come up with the "Ocean Battery". It's an enclosed system consisting of a pressurized water bag at the sea floor and a water tank under the soil. When the system is charged, the water from the tank is being pumped upwards into the water bag. The water bag is getting pressurized, but the pressure of the surrounding water outside of this enclosed system prevents the bag from exploding. It's ideal to have it installed among the windmills of an off-shore wind park and the first results are showing those water bags act like artificial reefs, improving local biodiversity of sea life. Looks quite promising to me and it solves a few issues like hydropower being damaging to the local environment setting everything underwater and blocking fish migration routes. It also solves the problem of hydropower needing mountains and it's storing the energy where it's generated without having to take into account things like evaporation, dry weather or downstream flooding. The water in that system is also clean. So no problems with mud. I'm not sureif they plan to use tap water/river quality water or cleaned sea water.
