A small note, gegyx: you got stuck in the 2nd link. It refers to a video unrelated to the subject ....

If not, I wonder if all these manufacturers took into account the price of oil in their profitability calculations ???

Setting up factories to produce cars by 2010 when oil has already reached $ 100 is really to have faith in the future ... well THEIR future, not ours, of course.

Except that they surely have the "real" figures or at least more realistic figures concerning oil ... if you know what I mean ...

I think this is our future for all right?

Well, I'm not so sure about that. In my opinion, there are 2 types of people who have a fairly realistic view of the reserves (and again, this view is often limited, geographically speaking):
  • Producing countries which must know more or less exactly THEIR reserves but which inflate them to have the right to produce more.
  • Oil tankers who have every interest in inflating stock estimates so as to delay research on energy alternatives ...

When I spoke of THEIR future, I had in mind the potential revenues of these factories and therefore their future within the companies they manage.
The shareholders are touchy: a somewhat random strategic choice and ZOU -> at the door .... with a nice golden parachute, of course, but at the door all the same.

Well, the opposite reasoning would be to continue to pretend that little is left to keep prices high (so much the better for econology but watch out for escrology) ...

Because anyway at the level of production we are almost at the "stop" ... so very little leeway on this side to "earn more" ...

I had tried to answer the question "How can the oil companies earn more?" briefly about this article:
https://www.econologie.com/taxation-fisc ... -3471.html

I always have in mind Janco's figures: the average extraction rate from wells before abandonment is currently 35%... all the unprofitable wells abandoned in the past and abandoned will become oil resources again ... I doubt that they enter the current figures ...

Well, we even had an example in France in the Loiret: https://www.econologie.com/forums/jtf3-1214- ... t4575.html
