$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Moped', 'H')i everyone, I'm Iain from New Zealand
In my day job I'm a power plant operator, I routinely operate a plant that Burns 1000 liters of diesel per minute, 24/7, for years I wondered how much longer this can continue, recently the fuel cost is causing some consternation even in this energy intensive industry, anyway just wanted to say hello before hitting the threads.
well , what price is the real issue here ,
apart from fluctuations on the day to day market expect it to rise
1, cheap oil is already been found and has been mostly used
2, those that still have easy oil will use it for themselves (export land model)
3, They'll hold back production because they need the money
why sell it cheap when a good price can be had ( direct opposite
to UK "so-called" free market - burn burn burn !)
2, offshore oil and othe exotic ( read "tar" shales ) sources are expensive to extract
and welcome to peak reality (!)
( moped - a form of transport I guess we'll all be going back to sooner than we think!)
( my petrol head career started with a Honda PC50 - the FS1E I go later was better
