Russian Oil and Gas Industry: News #3

Mexico is in terminal decline. Its prime field, the one in the Chicxulub crater is over the hill for years already. It is not replacing
any of its reserves. Canada's shtick is the tar sands which are all hat and no cattle. The US "shale oil" is a flash in the pan
as well.

Gazprom neft delivers 10-fold growth of net profit for 9m 2021

It is like liquid coal but somewhat more useful since it can by "upgraded" to synthetic oil via hydrogenation.   This industrial process makes tar
sands oil much more expensive than conventional oil and leaves vast pools of acidic toxic waste that is spewing carcinogenic VOCs on the
surrounding countryside.  Conversion of bitumen sands to synthetic oil also leaves slag.  

Venezuela's tar sands deposits are somewhat more useful since it can produce Orimulsion from the lower viscosity grades found in the
Orinoco basin.  This can be burned by marine diesels directly.   The added water "upgrades" the bitumen in the cylinders during combustion.

At this point Russia should divert it to kaliningrad as Garry has suggested and tell the Germans if they want gas, they buy now at current market prices for LNG or Germany can freeze.

And Russia invested billions worth of USD to this pipeline.

From Germany mind you.  German money regardless.

But you are too dumb to k own this. As was pointed out by others in the Ukraine thread.

BTW, you and that other account show up exact same time to spew same stupidity. I wonder why....

No, Russia's share of Nord Stream II is more than half. Money came from Russia, not from Germany.

You should consider that as internally driven.
The new "coalition" pact has 170 pages and was signed after about a year of pole dancing.
Half of the German political scene has its arses torn apart at the moment, and the whole "stability" hangs on a hair.
As someone said in the Ukrainian thread, just sit, wait and watch how Die Gruene will start to jump to their own music when the winter will really strike.

She is directly reading from a US script and not even making the effort to hide it, the whole German industry needs NS2 and they are most probably not going to tolerate such direct sabotage. Of all possible positions, they gave her the Foreign Ministry, so she could properly interfere with Russia for them, regardless of her being an absolute zero in that field and the ministry having almost nothing to do with "ecology". Good luck forcing the Energy Package on the Russians via the suicide threat you clowns....

Germany doesn't need Nord Stream II. Russia will deliver all the gas needed via Ukraine and Poland anyway.

Russia already recouped its share of the investment from high energy prices

Had the pipeline already been in operation, the prices would have been lower and its costs would not have been recovered yet

So yeah. Of course the prices will not be high forever and should not be high forever. But the rest is up to Germany. I doubt Russia has any more patience for this whole affair, pipeline's finished, money has been made on the back of its non-operation, so let the EU decide what games it wants to play by itself next, Moscow will take no part in any case.

All of NATzO policy pivots on the delusion that Russia needs western gas money to function. This is the old "the USSR needs hard
currency to buy wheat and to subsist" BS repackaged. It stems from the deep anti-Russian, racist mentality of the west. The
never ending drang nach osten of the insane crusaders.

Germany is infested with the green brain rot disease.   It shut down its nuclear power plants because of a tsunami in Japan.   Marvel
at the inanity.   BTW, Fukushima would have never happened if the super duper high tech Japanese were not a bunch of copy-tard
monkeys by placing the backup generator room (for the operation of the reactor cooling system) in the basement as in the original
US reactor plant design.   You know, tsunami flooding risk zone sort of necessitates an adjustment to the plant layout.   They had
a nice hill right by the plant on which to build the generator room and run some cables.   The 2011 earthquake did no significant
damage, the whole disaster was due to the failure of the backup generators by flooding.

It looks increasingly like U-rope shares the same collective mental disorder as the Ukrs and the Polaks.  The compulsion to foam
at the mouth with hate at Russia at their own expense.   Listen to the clowns from Kiev, to Warsaw, to Berlin, to Paris, etc.  
They spout the same inane shit based on hate projection.   I see various "pundits" talk about Russia invading one country after
another.   The retardation is breathtaking.

Well, Germany is sort of a victim here.
Antinuclear agenda was sponsored there for decades, with the cash flowing from SU directly.
Germans were supposed to oppose keeping the nuclear weapon on it's soil.
As they could not do it openly, and address the matter openly - a whole stream of hysteria was created.
They could not oppose the weapon directly, so back in the 60s all the green and eco movements were used for that matter.
SU ceased to exist, but ... not the cash flow.
Why?
Well, Germany back in the 90s was standing at the edge of needed decisions, how to proceed with the matter.
And as those were the times of the Maastricht treaty, the logical next step would be creating of the pan-European nuclear agency.
Who owned the technology&know-how back then?
Well ... France
No, not the British troyan donkey.
Wanna guess, whose $ were pumped there, to keep the hysteria living, only redirected?

Nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants are not related. The anti-nuclear power hysteria has nothing to do with the USSR.
It is a purely American brainwashing campaign. Hollywood was producing fear shlock in the 1970s and the anti-nuclear "movement"
integrated with environmentalism. The boogieman was the mislabeled "nuclear waste". Our precious blue marble was going to
be contaminated by nuclear waste for billions of years. God, the retards.

The anti-nuclear weapons movement rested on the residual sanity in the west which has now completely disappeared. People
were rightfully worried about a nuclear war. Now we are closer to a nuclear war than ever before (including the insane 1950s)
and westerners are obsessed with genitalia.
