Gas was in the mid $3 range pushing $4 last time oil was $100+/barrel. Now theyre talking that we might see prices as high as $6 as a national average. Biden picked a bad time to worry about climate change.

Inflation is also calculated into those prices. Also, I don't care what people say, shutting down Keystone XL definitely didn't help.

Are companies just not supposed to sell oil at market rate, set by the global commodity price?

the prices are still closely coupled. you have to discriminate between 'defined trend' and 'single data point'

curious on your take: given the heavy investments that had been made, do you believe in the absence of the Ukraine war, shale output would have been able to ramp fast enough to maintain steady prices in the $70-$90/bbl range? the rising prices pre-war were a consequence of post-COVID demand returning to historical levels, but newly drilled shale wells weren't automatically going into production after about 2017 (understandably, per our prior discussions; there were alternate sources that were more profitable)

Paid $6.09/gal for premium today.

Took a look at some the pumps while I was filling up and a lot of them with just small round purchases like 12.00, 15.00 etc.

Well no. They're supposed to sell gas at the price the United States president says too. Guess Biden just forgot that memo, you know, with the obvious signs of dementia and all.

Gas was cheap because nobody was driving, because Trump fucked up a pandemic response and nobody could go anywhere.

I'll take expensive gas and a functioning nation, thanks.

Without the Ukraine war, I think the prices would have briefly risen to above $100/bbl, US drilling was just too far behind to catch up to the production demand, and since 2018 investors had 0 interest in growing production, all Wall Street wants is some return for investors (after 0 return for the entire shale revolution since 2010). Even about a year ago I remember there was a lot of speculation among analysist that oil would go back to $100 as demand returned to normal, and shale production would be too slow to respond. OPEC has even been struggling for a while to meet their production commitments.

However I think the rise would have been a lot more gradual, and would have then started to trend down fairly quick to the $60 to $80 range as the industry would have had a lot more time to respond. This is just my speculation but I think Private Equity will start funding a lot of new drilling and production, and then sell those producing wells (plus undeveloped acreage) to big public companies. W/ Ukraine making the prices rise so fast, right now there is not enough incentive, investor appetite, permits, rigs, production equipment to respond and grow production.

Plus whoever was before me put in an even $5...hopefully it was for a weedeater or something.

this makes a lot of sense to me. I recall a similar effect in July 2008, where we saw the brief peak after months of rising prices, followed by a price crash. but nobody can plan their investing to predict a baseless war.
