RE:RE:RE:Some First hand ExperienceAll that supposed rapid pace EV sales last couple of years, oil demand is still chugging along. With the pending recession, i see more people holding on to their current ICE automobiles although they might drive less due to unemployment. Hence the 2024 oil demand forecast is a smaller increase than from 2022 to 2023 but it isn't bad considering recession AND continuous EV sales.

Prices will march higher, energy neophytes won't understand why.
I don't always buy fossil fuels, but when I do, I buy Suncor by the fistful.
Stay thirsty my friends.

If we are going to talk horses, lets also talk hay production!
Hay is fuel horses as oil is fuel to I.C.E. automobiles.
So lets take a historical look at the production of hay after the advent of the automobile in the United States:
O.K. Class who can tell Nukester what happened to hay production after I.C.E. vehicles displaced horses :-)
Class dismissed...
