Oil Production Quotes

• We're supposed to believe that oil had nothing to do with it, that if Iraq were exporting pickles or jelly and the center of world oil production were in the South Pacific that the United States would've liberated them anyway. It has nothing to do with the oil, what a crass idea. Anyone with their head screwed on knows that that can't be true.

• I do not remember when I said this [oil production would collapse ], maybe in the heat of the moment, but I do not think I even said it, but I may just not remember it. I was saying that at a certain level of oil prices new deposits will not be explored. That is what is actually happening. However, surprisingly, our oil and gas workers [mainly oilmen] continue to invest.

• However, it was not us who refused to freeze oil production; our Saudi partners changed their point of view at the last moment and decided to slow down the adoption of this decision. I would like to reiterate our position, it remains the same.

• There's a huge misconception that it's all about the oil, and the truth is there's actually not much oil left in Abyei. The misperception arose because when the peace agreement was signed in 2005, Abyei accounted for a quarter of Sudan's oil production. Since then, the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague defined major oil fields to lie outside Abyei. They're in the north now, not even up for grabs, and they account for one percent of the oil in Sudan. The idea that it's "oil-rich Abyei" is out of date.

• Si detuviera la producción de petróleo, tendríamos que importarlo de Irak y de Caracas (Venezuela) o de Dakota del Norte, donde las normas medioambientales son mucho menos estrictas, en trenes que ya han demostrado ser inseguros, o en más barcos que están causando una contaminación significativa en el mundo. Es una tontería.

• Even if we were to sign peace today, the economic conditions in our country would not improve automatically because it will take some time to reach the level of oil production before the war and the oil prices are likely to remain low for some time as the supply of oil in the world is high and demand is low.

• So long as oil is used as a source of energy, when
  the energy cost of recovering a barrel of oil becomes
  greater than the energy content of the oil, production
  will cease no matter what the monetary price may
  be.

• Se puede perforar en el Refugio Nacional de Vida Silvestre del Ártico, en cada plataforma continental y en la cima de cada colina de Estados Unidos, y aun así no se invertirá el hecho de que nuestra producción de petróleo está en declive permanente. Sólo estamos absorbiendo lo que queda, cavando nosotros mismos un agujero más profundo.

• I do believe that oil production globally has peaked at 85 million barrels. And I've been very vocal about it. And what happens? The demand continues to rise. The only way you can possibly kill demand is with price. So the price of oil, gasoline, has to go up to kill the demand. Otherwise, keep the price down, the demand rises.

• Saudi Arabian oil production is at or very near its peak sustainable volume (if it did not, in fact peak almost 25 years ago), and is likely to go into decline in the very foreseeable future. There is only a small probability that Saudi Arabia will ever deliver the quantities of petroleum that are assigned to it in all the major forecasts of world oil production and consumption.

• El betún es energía basura. Un julio, o unidad de energía, invertido en extraer y procesar el betún sólo devuelve de cuatro a seis julios en forma de petróleo crudo. En cambio, la producción de petróleo convencional en Norteamérica produce unos 15 julios. Como casi toda la energía utilizada en la producción de arenas bituminosas procede de combustibles fósiles, el proceso genera mucho más dióxido de carbono que la producción de petróleo convencional.

• Desde 2006, hemos superado a Alaska, Oklahoma, Luisiana y California en producción de petróleo y nos hemos convertido en el segundo estado productor del país, solo por detrás de Texas. En 2012, Dakota del Norte produjo más de 245 millones de barriles de petróleo y aportó casi el 11% de toda la producción estadounidense.
