The Wildly Inconsistent and Confusing Energy Policy of the Biden Admin

Big Red Car — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 18:14:26 +0000

Comes now the Biden War on Energy wherein President Biden took a series of anti-energy actions during his first week in office to include the gleeful cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline from Canada to the US Gulf Coast. On the cutting room floor lies 900MM barrels per day lost to the Keystone XL Pipeline […]

Black Gold, Putler, And The Dark Prince

Big Red Car — Thu, 06 Oct 2022 14:16:40 +0000

This week OPEC+ at its 33rd OPEC and non-OPEC Ministerial Meeting held in Vienna agreed to decrease crude oil production by 2,000,000 barrels a day which will have obvious implications — bad implications — for the rising price of oil, increasing inflation, and the global economy. Taking 2,000,000 bbl/day out of the pipeline will: 1. […]

The German Blunder, Chancellor Merkel’s Disaster

Big Red Car — Wed, 07 Sep 2022 14:12:43 +0000

In late September 2018 — four years before the Russian invasion of Ukraine — the American President gave a speech, a prescient and foretelling speech, at the United Nations in which he cautioned the German nation not to become dependent upon Russia for its energy needs. In that speech the American President said: Reliance on […]

The United States Forms the Global Energy Alliance

Big Red Car — Sat, 09 Apr 2022 01:23:00 +0000

In much the same way the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries came to life to maximize their financial interests and to extort the world by manipulating the supply and thus the price of oil, the United States needs to form the: Global Energy Alliance WTF, Big Red Car? Allow me to lay out my rationale: […]

The Sticky Math Of Crude Oil Imports v Pipelines

Big Red Car — Mon, 14 Mar 2022 15:39:25 +0000

The United States was once upon a time energy independent and then Joe Biden was elected. Since then, it has become apparent that we need to find some new sources of crude oil particularly since we finally stopped funding the crude Putin War Machine by buying more than 600,000 barrels a day of his nasty […]

The US Energy Independence Myth?

Big Red Car — Fri, 05 Nov 2021 15:42:08 +0000

Guy I know says to me, “America was never energy independent, Big Red Car. It’s all just a myth. Fake news.” His chin is out, his face is slightly red, and his tone is provocative. In spite of all of that, I can detect he doesn’t quite believe his own malarkey. “Really?” says I. “American […]

CO2 And Fracking A Bit Of Truth

Big Red Car — Sun, 11 Oct 2020 19:55:19 +0000

Comes now the conundrum as to whether former Vice President Joe Biden, Democrat candidate for President, is supportive of or opposed to fracking. Allow me to kill that suspense for you — he opposes fracking, but is prepared to say whatever is necessary to obtain the most votes, which is a typical politician’s response and […]

We are living in interesting times. We are facing a pandemic, an economic crisis, a stock market brouhaha, and an oil bust. Today, we focus on the oil bust. In case you haven’t been following things, the Russians and the Saudis got into a pissing contest as to the level of oil output by the […]

Iran, Curious, Provocative Iran

Big Red Car — Tue, 17 Sep 2019 23:03:55 +0000

The Middle East is on the verge of an explosion precipitated by a spiral of Iranian provocative behavior. Your Big Red Car would like to calmly discuss what has transpired to bring the world to this point. We need to know the history of the region and Iran. In 1979, the Shah of Iran — […]
