Facing Economic Squeeze, Iran Plays Asian Energy Game

Posted by Matt in February 7th, 2007

Five years before the Islamic Revolution, Iran produced 6.1 million barrels of oil a day. By the end of 2006 the Iranian oil industry was only pumping 3.9 million barrels a day, 5 percent below its OPEC quota. Barely able to produce any oil for export or cope with escalating domestic demand, Iran’s energy industry has been sliding steadily toward crisis.

Yet Iran’s oil reserves are second only to Saudi Arabia’s, and its gas supply is eclipsed only by Russia’s. Having vast energy reserves and the technology to extract and refine them, however, are two different things. A mega-deal struck recently with China, and membership of a select Asian club, may yet help turn Iran’s ailing energy industry around — and without help from the West. The big question facing Iran now is which will kick in first: economic relief from a new era of energy mega-deals, or a waning of its regional influence born of increasing domestic economic failure? And then there is the wild card in the pack: the nuclear one.

Bush Lies About Iranian Nuclear Energy Program
Iran has persistently claimed it is not seeking nuclear weapons and that its nuclear energy program is for civilian use only. However, reminiscent to the false accusations running up the Iraq war, President Bush charges that Iran has "threatened other countries with nuclear weapons"—this is patently false.

Lindsey Williams - The Energy Non-Crisis - Part 1 of 8
Lindsey Williams, who has been an ordained Baptist minister for 28 years, went to Alaska in 1971 as a missionary. The Transalaska oil pipeline began its construction phase in 1974, and because of Mr. Williams' love for his country and concern for the spiritual welfare of the "pipeliners," he volunteered to serve as Chaplain on the pipeline, with the subsequent full support of the Alyeska Pipeline Company.

NWO PLAN /TAKE OUT OF IRAN
This just shows what a lunatic Bush is,and in Obama NO CHANGE!!!!! The United States, backed by the British are attempting to take direct control of as much of the worlds energy resources as possible, to guarantee their own future supplies and to be in a position to dominate the economies of the world. its possible an attack may take place before jan 2009 or just before obama takes over the reigns.

While Russia, with large petroleum reserves; is attempting to prevent the US from stealing it's European energy markets.

Iran says Gulf oil route at risk if attacked
Iran says Gulf oil route at risk if attacked.. possible this could be the precursor to world war iii and possible causing oil price to go ballistic. "Regarding the main route for exiting energy, Iran will definitely act to impose control on the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz," Jafari said of the Gulf waterway through which about two-fifths of all globally traded oil passes. Jafari said U.S. forces were "more vulnerable than Israelis" because of their troops in the area. Iran's top authority, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has in the past said Iran would target U.S. interests if attacked. "Iran can in different ways harm American interests even far away," the Guards commander said. http://www.reuters.com/article/wtMostRead/idUSBLA82623620080628?sp=true

Global Pulse - 10/10/08: The India Nuclear Deal: Bending the Rules
(October 10, 2008) While the worlds focus may be on the global financial meltdown, the U.S and India have signed a historic deal to trade nuclear energy.
