Ma lihtsalt tahtsin öelda et nn."kolmandas maailmas" on alalõpmata midagi "lahti". Ma olen kindel et seal on neid "kriise" varemgi olnud .. nüüd tuuakse maailmalõpu ennustuste käigus see välja .. (enne kui nafta otsa saab tuleb autoga mõned kiiremad ringid teha)

Heading to the Midwest? Brace yourself for high gas costs
Sunday, July 15, 2007

If your travel plans include a trip through parts of the Midwest and Plains states, take note: The area has a backlog of crude oil and a shortage of gasoline at the pump.

Several states are reporting scant supplies of gas after a Coffeyville, Kan., refinery flooded, and a Whiting, Ind., refinery was closed because of a leak.

While gas prices creep up here, the Oil Price Information Service predicted last week that the next 10 days could see the highest Midwestern prices of the year, with gas expected to hit $3.50 a gallon.

Several Midwestern governors have allowed tanker-truck drivers to stay behind the wheel longer to bring gas to the area. The truck drivers are experiencing long waits at refineries to get the gasoline. Some truckers are hauling gas from Canada.

States affected are Kansas, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Iowa and the northern part of Texas.

And officials say they have no idea how long the problems will last - seda kõike olukorras, kus pole sõda, orkaani ega mõnda godzillat laamendamas.

An American corporation began operating the first huge pulp mill in 1954 near the fishing town of Ketchikan. A second was built soon after in Sitka by a Japanese consortium. Alaska's biggest industrial facilities in the era before North Slope oil, each hired some 500 people at relatively high wages. Many more were employed as sawyers, bulldozer operators, and drivers to keep an annual volume of 200 to 600 million board feet (470,000 to 1.4 million cubic meters) of timber (about 20,000 to 60,000 logging truckloads) flowing to the mills. There, the straight trunks of big hemlocks and the dense-grained, incredibly strong wood of Sitka spruce, many of the spruce trees born two or three centuries before Europeans knew the New World existed, were shredded and soaked in chemical brews—pulped. The pulp was shipped off to make rayon, cellophane, newspaper, and absorbent filling for disposable diapers. - PO võiks kiiremini tulla, selliseid artikleid lugedes.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Stocks of companies that own and operate crude oil tankers finished lower Monday after rates for the vessels plunged more than 20 percent on supply concerns.

In a client note, Jefferies & Co. analyst Douglas J. Mavrinac said rates for crude oil tankers took a hit last week when OPEC said crude exports would not increase in August as expected, and maintenance in some Asian refineries lowered demand and led to a tanker surplus.

Iraan loobus naftamüügis dollarit kasutamast

NIOCi rahvusvaheliste suhete direktor teatas sel esmaspäeval Teheranis, et Iraan loobub suures osas naftamüügiks dollarite kasutamisest. Põhjuseks toodi dollari rekordiliselt madal väärtus. Tegemist on potentsiaalse majandusliku rünnakuga Ühendriikide vastu.

Iraan, OPECi suuruselt teine tootja ekspordib 2,3 miljonit barrelit päevas - sellest 65% Aasiasse. Üle 70% neist tehingutest tehakse nüüd teistes ühikutes. Jaapanile müüakse naftat jeenides. NIOC (National Iranian Oil Company) esindaja rõhutas, et tegemist ei ole poliitilise lükkega.

Kolm suurt naftatootjat - Iraan, Venetsueela ja Venemaa on viimaste kuude jooksul oma välisvaluutareservid viinud üle eurodesse.

kõrged hinnad põhjustavad kokkuhoidu?

U.S. gasoline demand in the four weeks ended July 13 was 9.626 million barrels a day, the EIA data show, a gain of 1.3% from a year ago and the highest on record for any four-week period. Demand in the past week was 9.71 million barrels a day, the second-highest ever and just 11,000 barrels a day below the record weekly level set July 1, 2005.

Seda ma rääkisin juba ammu et siis kukub 25% maailma tarbimisest suur tükk ära. Ja puudujääk nihkub kaugemasse tulevikku. Ainus jama mis võib tulla on et see tõmbab ka muud valuutad kaasa (sest kõik on võidu raha juurde trükkinud) ja meil pole mõni aeg usaldusraha vaid tapetseerime koidulatega seinu. Ainuke raha kandidaat sel ajal on kuld ja hõbe. Kui nendestki asja on. Niiet ostke korralik ratas (hea kui koos käruga) ja õppige toidu kasvatamist, sest kõigest muust on võimalik loobuda.
