rced976.txt Some oil market experts told us that oil companies are trying to reduce their operating costs by adopting "just-in-time" inventory management techniques that keep inventories and related costs to a minimum but provide little buffer during oil shocks. Oil shocks harm the economy by reducing the economy's potential GDP, which is the amount that the United States can produce when all resources are fully employed. Oil supply disruptions anywhere in the world would cause the price of oil to rise in the United States, and the economy would bear the consequences even if oil imports were much lower. www.securitymanagement.com /library/rced976.txt

4X4REVIEW.COM: Be A Genius - Shock Absorbers In theory, if the oil and the air are not allowed to mix (that’s the way the engineers designed this), the shock will dampen at a far more consistent rate regardless of the frequency of the shock compression/rebound cycles, because the oil cannot aerate. Your rear shock absorbers should be mounted as far outboard as possible as well, and in as close to perpendicular to the travel of the suspension. This means that a shock with a measurement from the lower shock eye to the top of the shock body of 9" would not limit suspension compression or rebound for this application. www.4x4review.com /feature/shock-genius.asp

and life goes on...MSc Dissertation Oil shocks are explained to lead to lower aggregate demand since the oil price increase redistributed income between the countries that are net oil importers and exporters. Holding the changes in oil intensity at certain levels in the environment of an oil price shock represents a passive energy policy, where proactive policies such as diversification of energy sources, investment in energy efficiency improvements, or strategic oil stockpiles, are not introduced or implemented. An oil price fluctuation is likely to have a different impact on each of the ASEAN countries because of the diversity in their economic and energy structures including the relative strength of the economy, the position as an oil importer or exporter, and the level of economic dependency on oil. koolaismscdissertation.blogspot.com

Peak Oil News Oil will likely always have a value, but deprived of its role as one of the world’s primary energy sources and with so many other factors in play within the relevant timeframe, any useful estimate of this is difficult to concoct. Oil might not be used for power and transport in the future but was expected still to be used to make plastics and chemicals and medicines. Major oil companies are fast running out of places to invest for new supplies of oil since most of the world's reserves are in countries that are either wary of foreign investors or, because of war or sanctions, shut off to American oil concerns. peakoil.blogspot.com

Oil's link to economic decline less certain, study finds - Nov. 17, 2003 More recently, a surge in oil prices in late 2000 helped set the stage for the 2001 recession, though the direct effect of the oil shock was not as clear cut. What's more, many of the earlier oil-price shocks were driven by embargoes and wars, in which the global supply of oil was sharply curtailed, forcing oil-consuming industries to slow down dramatically. In contrast, in the late 1990s, oil prices rose mostly because growing industrial powerhouses such as China and Korea ramped up their oil consumption as their factory sectors expanded. money.cnn.com /2003/11/17/news/economy/oil

Japan, Inc.: The looming oil shocks: how Japan is going "green" With the onset of the oil shocks, foreign investors believed that Japan would not be able to recover from the shock of substantially higher oil prices because of its high dependency on imported oil. The Middle East's share of world oil supply was 38 percent in 1973, when the first oil shock hit, fell to 18 percent by 1985, and is now again on the rise, surpassing 30 percent. Oil prices would have moved higher and faster then were it not for the global economy falling into recession. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m0NTN/is_60/ai_n6246666

The Agonist Oil Shock? Obviously, that was not the case during the first oil shock of the early 1970s, but this has been a very popular view in every shock since. In my experience, every time oil shocks occur, there is an inclination to dismiss the impact on the basis of the reduced energy content of industrial world GDP. Unfortunately, the Oil Shock of 2004 fits that script to a tee. scoop.agonist.org /story/2004/8/19/11336/3235

Gold & Oil If this Oil indicator is going to perform as well in the future as it did before than investors should be on high alert for possible nasty future economic events and be prepared to take appropriate measures in order to protect themselves financially. US Oil production indeed peaked in 1970 as predicted by Hubbert but still it took many years before geologists were willing to admit that Hubbert was right and that US Oil production indeed had peeked in 1970. According to Alan Greenspan yes, he says that higher oil prices won’t be much of a problem for the economy these days and inflation won’t pop up as during the seventies. news.goldseek.com /EricHommelberg/1102278000.php

Understanding the Impact of Oil Shocks In particular, standard models cannot explain the depht of the recession in 1974-75 and the strong revival in 1976-78 based on the oil price movements in that period. This multipliplier-accelerator mechanism not only exacerbated the impact of the oil schocks in 1973-74 but also helped create the temporary recovery in 1976-1978. Although this link has been well documented in the empirical literature and is further confirmed in this paper, standard economic models are not able to replicate this link when actual oil prices are used to stimulate the models. ideas.repec.org /p/nip/nipewp/2-2005.html

CaseNet - Coping With Oil Shocks The oil shocks and policies adopted in 1973 and 1979 are reviewed, and the student is put in the position of advising President Bush on what economic policy to use to respond to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990. This case reviews the policy options for dealing with oil price shocks, with a particular emphasis on monetary policy.

Encyclopedia: Oil shock In addition, the economies of oil exporting nations are dependent on oil and efforts to restrict the supply of oil would have an adverse effect on the economies of oil producers. The price in a market economy of energy (oil, gas, electricity) is driven by the fundamental principles of supply and demand which can cause sudden changes in the price of energy if either supply or demand changes. Many scholars argue that the world is heading towards a global energy crisis mostly from running out of cheap oil and recommend decreasing dependency on fossil fuel. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Oil-Shock

Oil Price Shocks and Emerging Stock Markets: A Generalized VAR Approach Inconsistent with prior research on developed economies, the findings imply that oil shocks have no significant impact on stock index returns in emerging economies. This study examines the dynamic linkages between crude oil price shocks and stock market returns in 22 emerging economies. The results also suggest that stock market returns in these economies do not rationally signal shocks in the crude oil market. ideas.repec.org /a/eaa/ijaeqs/v1y2004i1_8.html

TIME.com: Oil Shocks And Oil Stocks He also believes that the current differential of 40% to 50% between mid-size and big oil is too large to justify. If you missed Big Oil's runup, consider Not So Big Oil: companies such as Conoco and USX Marathon have been relatively ignored by investors, but they're turning analysts' heads. And the prospect of stiff prices for heating oil this winter is already giving us a chill. www.time.com /time/nation/article/0,8599,54443,00.html

Saddam Hussein A year later, world oil prices rose dramatically as a result of the 1973 world oil shock, and Saddam was able to pursue an all-the-more ambitious agenda through skyrocketing oil revenues. The invasion immediately triggered fears that the world's price of oil, and therefore the control of the world economy, was at stake. Kuwait was pumping large amounts of oil, and thus keeping prices low, when Iraq needed to sell high-priced oil from its wells to pay off a huge debt. www.sciencedaily.com /encyclopedia/saddam_hussein

1973 energy crisis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Oil exporters such as Mexico, Nigeria, and Venezuela, whose economies had expanded frantically, were plunged into near-bankruptcy, and even Saudi Arabian economic power was significantly weakened. Oil consumption in the United States had more than doubled between 1950 and 1974. The crisis was further exacerbated by government price controls in the United States, which limited the price of "old oil" (that already discovered) while allowing newly discovered oil to be sold at a higher price, resulting in a withdrawal of old oil from the market and artificial scarcity. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/1973_energy_crisis

VHeadline.com - Adjusting to peak oil... Future shock! World oil demand ceased to fall from late 1983 and through 1984, with oil prices in 2003 dollars that were still far above $60 per barrel. Oil consumption growth rates have only turned into stagnation and then fall in the sharpest, deepest recessions, notably in 1980-83, and then surged again as the world economy again expands. Oil demand growth by the fastest growing Asian industrial countries outside China (the ‘traditional’ New Industrial Countries) was in fact at its most explosive during the period of highest oil prices, during the 10-year period of 1975-85 ! www.vheadline.com /readnews.asp?id=7957

Oil Shock - Obele Oil Corporation Oil shocks are defined as any unexpected and substantial change in crude oil supplies and prices, and stem from the interplay of three components found in the "energy supply profile" of a country… Although previous oil shocks were largely precipitated by events in the Middle East, rapidly unfolding trends in reserve and capacity shortfalls threaten a new type of oil shock: an oil shock caused by structural problems in the domestic industry itself. The common "prescription" for oil shocks, which calls for substituting imports with more domestic production, reduces the cost savings benefits from cheaper imports and does not substantially reduce damage to the economy and society. www.obeleoil.com /oilshock2.htm

Is Development the Best : Melbourne Indymedia Oil riches added to this confusion of previously workable local solutions to population overshoot. Tourists and goodies from all over the world were there, in four years you watched the town grow, hotels and guest houses mutated and joined forming terraced Club Meds, the familiar ancient wooden carved window treatments were being souvenired and the place was losing its old world charm before your eyes… but that’s progress. There will be no war and the principal occupation of humans will be finding ways to do good in a world so close to heaven that few will choose to die, if indeed, death has not been ruled out entirely as an option. www.melbourne.indymedia.org /news/2004/07/74771_comment.php

Oil Blog World War I also favored the reduction of the production indices of the oil industry. Oil has been exported from the Absheron Peninsula to Iran, Iraq and other places farther afield for at least 2,500 years. Oil extraction in Azerbaijan reached 671 million poods in 1901, as a result of the slow slump it fell to 467 million poods in 1903. oilblogger.blogspot.com

internet culture The worlds that result from such to-ing and fro-ing they call associations, Acknowledging that there is no single world that's everyone's perfect cup of tea, the libertarian is inspired by a utopia which is a set of possible worlds, with permeable borders, in which one world is the best imaginable for each of us. The Internet is changing our relationship to nature, not only in the way that postmodernist theorists emphasize, by ``thickening'' the layers of images that mediates our perception of the external world and our interactions with it, but also by starting to lessen the stress on nature caused by the technologies of the industrial revolution. Our personalities may be threatened with fragmentation by a postmodern world, but our selves are not mere cultural constructs, artifacts of a postmodern world. www.brandeis.edu /pubs/jove/HTML/V6/iculture.html

The Oil Shock Japan Travelingo World Travel Guide Three-quarters of Japan's energy needs were met by imported fuel, so the overnight quadrupling of oil prices was a severe shock to the country, which rapidly had to introduce measures to tackle inflation, reduce energy consumption and stem growth. Attention was swiftly diverted from other problems by the Middle East oil embargo of 1973. Yet, at the same time as the Japanese were being urged to take a global view, the world was increasingly complaining about Japan's insular ways. www.travelingo.org /asia/japan/guide/70875

Energy Plug: 25th Anniversary of the 1973 Oil Embargo: Energy Trends Since the First Major U.S. Energy Crisis Twenty-five years after the oil embargo by members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) shocked energy markets and created long lines for gasoline in the United States, U.S. dependence on imported oil is at an all-time high. This development, the result of declining U.S. crude oil production and rising demand, is among 30 major energy trends detailed in 25th Anniversary of the 1973 Oil Embargo: Energy Trends Since the First Major U.S. Energy Crisis, recently released by the Energy Information Administration. OPEC's share of world oil production, which stood at 55 percent in 1973, fell to as low as 30 percent in 1985. www.eia.doe.gov /emeu/plugs/pl25yrs.html

rced976.txt Concerned that growing dependence on low-priced imported oil, especially from the Persian Gulf, increases the economy's vulnerability to oil supply disruptions and price shocks (oil shocks), the current administration, through its 1995 National Energy Policy Plan, has adopted policies and programs intended to reduce that vulnerability and its associated economic costs. The report also provides measures of the economy's vulnerability to oil shocks and forecasts the likely impact of the administration's initiatives and other factors on these measures through the year 2015. Thus, the effects of any given oil shock on the economy is likely to be less now than in the 1970s. www.securitymanagement.com /library/rced976.txt

BCSIA - Publications - Publication -U.S. Vulnerability to Oil-Price Shocks and Supply Constraints... and How to Reduce it Just prior to the first oil-price shock in 1973, this spending had totaled about $1.3 billion per year (converted to constant 1997 dollars), more than 80 percent of it for nuclear fission and fusion and most of the rest in fossil-fuel technologies. If oil's share of U.S. energy supply had stayed constant at the 1972 figure of 45.3%, then oil's share of the 10 quadrillion Btu savings attributable in 1979 to post-1972 efficiency improvements would be 4.53 quadrillion Btu, equivalent to 2.1 million barrels per day of crude petroleum. From 1979 to 1985 (just before oil prices went into sharp decline), the energy intensity of the U.S. economy fell at an average rate of almost 3.2% per year (reaching 14.4 quadrillion Btu per trillion 1992 dollars in 1985), and oil's share of total U.S. energy supply also fell steadily (reaching 40.3% in 1985). bcsia.ksg.harvard.edu /publication.cfm?program=CORE&ctype=testimony&item_id=17&ln=all&gma=1

Issue 5, 1997 - Southwest Economy - FRB Dallas The industry shocks that occurred before the 1980s, such as the oil price changes and defense cuts of the 1970s, were not accompanied by widely varying regional responses, in spite of a greater degree of regional industry concentration. Aside from oil-price increases, the supply shocks that have received the most attention from macroeconomists are probably crop failures because of drought or flooding. Oil price changes, although national shocks, affect the cycles of energy-producing and energy-consuming regions differently. www.dallasfed.org /research/swe/1997/swe9705.html

nwsltr59 If fields do replete because the oil and gas extracted from them is abyssal and abiotic (based on chemical reactions under specific thermodynamic conditions deep in the earth's mantle), then extraction costs should not rise as production from such fields continues for an indefinite period. President Bush's actions, while providing more than enough protection against external supply shocks, severely strains domestic supplies for the market. Neither do estimates of reserves, reserves-to-production ratios and annual rates of discovery and additions to reserves have any of the importance correctly attributed to them in evaluating the future supply prospects under the organic theory of oil and gas' derivation. www.davesweb.cnchost.com /nwsltr59.html
