Does The US Really Need Saudi Oil?

Does The US Really Need Saudi Oil? thumbnail

“Saudi Arabia — if we broke with them, I think your oil prices would go through the roof. I’ve kept them down,” President Trump told reporters on Tuesday. “They’ve helped me keep them down. Right now we have low oil prices, or relatively. I’d like to see it go down even lower — lower.”

Oil prices have indeed fallen significantly in recent weeks, and to be sure, Saudi Arabia has played a large role in that. Saudi production reportedly hit a record high 11 million barrels per day (mb/d) at times this month, and global inventories are rising once again.

But Riyadh is also clearly upset at being “duped” by Trump. Having been convinced by the Trump administration that Iran’s oil exports were heading to zero, or at least close to zero, Saudi Arabia ramped up supply to offset the losses.

The U.S. then surprised the market by issuing a bunch of waivers, allowing Iran to continue to export oil. Japan and South Korea may even resume buying oil from Iran in January, after cutting imports to zero in anticipation of sanctions.

Almost immediately after the waivers were issued, oil prices crashed. Saudi Arabia then promptly announced that it would cut production by 500,000 bpd in December, and the rumors of an OPEC+ cut really began to pick up.

Trump is happy about the slide in oil prices, but Saudi Arabia clearly isn’t. Saudi Arabia and its OPEC+ partners could soon take action to push prices back up. So, it isn’t clear that Washington and Riyadh have the same objectives, or that their tight relationship is resulting in lower oil prices.

More to the point, however, is the odd belief in Washington that the U.S. needs to keep Saudi Arabia close in order to keep the oil flowing. Trump said that oil prices “would go through the roof” if he broke with them. The U.S. has coddled the Saudi monarchy for decades, and only very recently, with the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi – likely at the order of crown prince Mohammed bin Salman – has the American foreign policy establishment finally begun to reevaluate the wisdom of the relationship.

The murder has put the focus on Saudi atrocities. Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal reported that Saudi security forces jailed and tortured women’s-rights activists, even as the world gushed over the decision from crown prince Mohammed bin Salman to allow women to drive.

Whereas past U.S. presidents, from both parties, maintained a close alliance with Riyadh in the face of horrific human rights abuses, using varying explanations of security and cooperation, the Trump administration is more brutally honest in its transactional approach. Trump talks about how the U.S. makes billions off of weapons sales, while also enjoying lower oil prices. Related: The Oil Industry Is Facing A “Capex Conundrum”

But that last point, which is arguably considered conventional wisdom in Washington, doesn’t really add up. While the U.S. imported 1 mb/d from Saudi Arabia in August (a figure that has fluctuated over time but is down from between 1.5 and 2 mb/d in the mid-2000s), it doesn’t really matter. The precise volumes of oil the U.S. imports from Saudi Arabia isn’t relevant.

What if the U.S. did break with Saudi Arabia? What if the U.S. condemned MbS, and took more punitive action towards Riyadh? Or, more significantly, downgraded the alliance with Saudi Araba?

The fear implied in Trump’s comments is that Saudi Arabia would somehow restrict exports to the U.S., a nonsensical scenario. Even if Saudi Arabia restricted shipments to the U.S., the oil would still flow elsewhere. Crude oil is a “fungible” commodity, in the jargon, which is to say that oil would still find its way to the U.S. If Saudi Arabia sent all of its oil to China instead of the U.S., that would simply displace oil heading from, say, Iraq to China. That Iraqi oil would then shift back to the U.S. and the end result would be minimal.

What if Saudi Arabia decided to significantly cut production in order to jack up prices in retaliation for punishment from Washington? That’s possible, in theory, but it would also be hugely painful to Saudi Arabia. Cutting production and exports would reduce sales for Saudi Arabia; higher prices would ignite an even stronger response from U.S. shale; higher prices would aid Iran (Saudi Arabia’s enemy); and higher prices would also put pressure on the U.S. to issue more waivers on importing oil from Iran in order to relieve market pressure. All of this would be hugely negative for Saudi Arabia, and that is even before we consider the fact that an oil price spike would accelerate the long-term switch off of oil and bring on peak oil demand faster. As Liam Denning put it for Bloomberg Opinion, using “the oil weapon would be a self-own of colossal proportions.” Thus, it simply wouldn’t happen.

Yet, U.S. politicians are dominated by this line of thinking. “I’m not going to tell a country that is spending hundreds of billions of dollars and has helped me do one thing very importantly — keep oil prices down so that they’re not going to $100 and $150 dollars a barrel,” Trump told reporters. “Right now we have oil prices in great shape. I’m not going to destroy the world economy, and I’m not going to destroy the economy for our country by being foolish with Saudi Arabia.”

He went on to add: “If you want to see oil prices go to $150 a barrel — like, by the way, Russia would love to see that — all you have to do is break up our relationship with Saudi Arabia.” Bloomberg Opinion called it “Trump’s Stage-Five MBS Clinging.”

For emphasis, Trump reiterated this position early Thursday morning on twitter.

“It’s a mean & nasty world out there, the Middle East in particular. This is a long and historic commitment, & one that is absolutely vital to America’s national security.” @SecPompeo I agree 100%. In addition, many Billions of Dollars of purchases made in U.S., big Jobs & Oil!

Saudi Arabia desperately needs the U.S. for security, weapons and as a massive consumer of crude oil (Saudi Aramco also owns the largest oil refinery in the U.S., the Motiva facility in Port Arthur, Texas). For some reason, American officials have long thought that it is Saudi Arabia that holds all the cards.

    The US would have dispensed with SA long ago if oil was the only thing to keep an allience. The elephant in the room is not oil, but Palestine. Israel has persued MBS more than any other arab leader. MBS needs to make Iran the bad guy to prop up his own murderous regime and has attacked Yemen and backed islamist groups especially ISIS to keep the Sunni people from realising the truth that they don’t need a monarchy and that true democracy (of the type espoused by the muslim Brotherhood) is indeed a viable alternative. Israels greatest enemy is Iran (not because Iran is strong but because their will is unbreakable as proven when they saw off Saddam Hussains US backed Iraq). Iran will never tolerate the apartheid Zionist system, nor should anyone who believes all men are created equal, even kings. The US is now in the position that the British Empire faced circa 1912-20, that they may be the world’s strongest country but the secret of their power is known. Throwing away MBS will cause Israel to act erratically and force the US into wars it does not want/need or could possibly win (since the definition of winning an imperialist war is impossible). The British could beat India a hundred times over but each time there would still be India. Beating Nazi Germany was easy compared to that because victory brought about a revolution of morality and thought (think about it clogger). A victory over Iran will result in victory over a population that hates you and is not your religion. Which is where Israel hopes to use Saudi Arabia who have no issue using starvation and genocide because it’s their own brand of religion, they believe in the right of Wahabbis to wipe non Wahabbis from the face of the earth (that includes you clogger). So while oil may be an economic reason to keep MBS as an ally in power, the alternative is to abandon him and Saudi Arabia will collapse in weeks, the factional fighting alone would secure Iran against SaudI, the Emirates and Kuwait would get involved and soon all the tribes of Arabia would be at war, this would ensure that Israel would attack Irans nuclear sites, which then would have a disastrous impact on oil prices, because the waivers prove WE NEED IRANIAN OIL.

    The world needs Saudi oil…the US is part of the world. The important question is what would Saudi do to global oil exports if the US (or other countries)impose a sever penalty. Which brings up an equally important question IMO: what will other countries do to punish the Saudis? Why is it up to only the US: the EU is also a major trading partner with the KSA. I don’t hear the EU condemning the Saudis…with actions and not just words. And same for England, Australia, all the south American countries, et al? Last I heard even Turkey hasn’t forced the KSA to close its embassy there…the scene of the crime.

  3. joe on Sun, 25th Nov 2018 3:28 pm 

    That’s exactly the point Rockman. Trump is putting America first by not cutting ties with Saudi, sadly it’s only a short term boost. When MBS feels like he’s off the hook and the heat has cooled, who knows what they will do next.

    Petrodollar. Does ANYONE here know what that one word means? Reading the above article and the comments, it appears that it is a foreign word in some unknown language. It is the primary reason the US kisses Saudi ass.

    “After the collapse of the Bretton Woods gold standard in the early 1970s, the United States struck a deal with Saudi Arabia to standardize oil prices in dollar terms. Through this deal, the petrodollar system was born, along with a paradigm shift away from pegged exchanged rates and gold-backed currencies to non-backed, floating rate regimes.

    The petrodollar system elevated the U.S. dollar to the world’s reserve currency and, through this status, the United States enjoys persistent trade deficits and is a global economic hegemony. The petrodollar system also provides the United States’ financial markets with a source of liquidity and foreign capital inflows through petrodollar “recycling.” However, an explanation of the effects of petrodollars on the U.S. dollar requires a brief synopsis of the history of the petrodollar.”

    https://www.investopedia.com/articles/forex/072915/how-petrodollars-affect-us-dollar.asp

    Get educated people. If the Petrodollar is replaced with the petroyuan or the petroeuro, etc, it is game over for the US. And the Saudis could, and are, buying weapons from Russia and China. They do not need the US.

    BREAKING – Poroshenko Supports Declaration of War against Russia!

    Chocolate oligarch Poroshenko is a jew operating for neocon interests. He would love to instigate WW3 and sick the West against Russia.

    Pity though that Trump won’t bite, nor will the EU, just because two small boats bump into each other near Crimea. Ukraine and Russia are already fighting a low-grade war in Donbass and this is just another minor incident.

    But it again demonstrates how neocon kikes like “I am the Mob” operate: inciting for war whereever they go and always being low-key on their identity, the lying slimeballs that they are.

    Again watch this CNN hitpiece against Putin. Almost all agitators against Putin in the doc are jews:

    https://youtu.be/ZZ-Kwr0VFUE

    All they want to do is push us in a devastating war against Russia, just like they managed to sick everybody against Germany after 1939.

    That’s the beauty of Britain leaving now. They have been able to block a European army so far, but they no longer can. We must ensure that Brexit isn’t stopped at the last moment by the like of US deep state stooges like the Blair. The actions of France and Spain over fishing and Gibraltar are coming at exactly the right moment, making it psychologically difficult to crawl back. Norway is good enough. Britain should be ignored, they are hopelessly anti-European. But Americans are different. There are a lot of people there of continental European descent in a state of despair about the way their country is developing. That’s the main prize for us continental Europeans.

    “China’s Orwellian Social Credit Score Will Monitor All Beijing Citizens In 2020”
    https://tinyurl.com/y8ocykwq

    “According to the Beijing plan, different agencies will link databases to get a more detailed picture of every resident’s interactions across many financial and social platforms. Bloomberg said the proposal calls for agencies including tourism bodies, business regulators and transit authorities to work together. Tracking of individual behavior in China has become more accessible to the government with apps such as Tencent’s WeChat and Ant Financial’s Alipay, a central point for making payments, obtaining loans and organizing transport. These accounts are linked to mobile phone numbers, which in turn require government IDs. Other technologies, including social media, facial recognition, smartphones, artificial intelligence, and smart cameras, will play a critical roll in this Orwellian social manipulation strategy. In the next few years, every action of a citizen will leave a permanent digital fingerprint that the government will either assign a good or bad score based on how they view the action. This type of social control has never been done before.”

    An electric pickup truck? You won’t be able to haul or tow very much because the batteries weigh over 1k pounds..And you wouldn’t be able to take it very far out of the city ever..And most people who drive trucks are anti environment and wouldn’t want to be caught dead driving an EV..

    Mob “Ukraine is an ally to the US so that means mother Russia is going down hard soon..Just like Saddam did..”

    When you react like this you betray your ignorance and naïveté. This is a non event, Mob, and nothing significant will come of it. Just one more thing getting a little bit worse again. Doesn’t that sound just like the present human condition?

    The USA has the most materialistic, capitalistic, oligarchic, violent, abusive, criminal, terroristic, and aggressive “culture” of any country in the world. That is why you have more people in prison than any other country in the world, more school shootings than all the rest of the world put together, more military installations in foreign countries than the rest of the world combined, and have been in more wars than any other country in modern history, etc., etc., etc.
