Will student protests turn the convention summer of 2024 into #Biden 's 1968? #Election2024 #Chicago

Heard on BBC News NI this morning: whereas a few years ago one third of respondents to a survey in Northern Ireland said they were willing to pay 'a little extra' for #energy to help 'save the #environment ', today only 9% say they would be willing to do so.

#BP sticks with the Mexican Gulf and suggest that they 'stand the chance to open up the next great basin in the world'. (Great photos too!) #oilandgas #offshore #Paleogene

BP’s new CEO is focusing on the heartland waters off the coast of Louisiana and Texas as it again bets big…

A fascinating article, unpacking the complex notion and consequences of ' #climatejustice '. Moreover, the reference to a mere 'unsettling of the carbon capital hegemony' is indicative of just how embryonic and arguably weak the so-called #energytransition (which, in reality is…

30 years today💔 #Senna

I'm just beginning to reflect on (and write up) what has been a couple of exciting weeks spent in Washington, DC and Houston, Texas conducting interviews for my book project on 'The Resilience of Big Oil'. I very much appreciate the helpfulness of all the oil and gas…

Scene from America's first decade of oil (1860s) “The enthusiasm for oil seemed to know no limits... Americans danced to the “American Petroleum Polka” and the “Oil Fever Gallop,” and they sang such songs as “Famous Oil Firms” and “Oil on the Brain.” And I still have #oil on the…

Greenpeace and its allies just won a court case in the Philippines blocking Golden Rice from reaching millions of vitamin A-deficient young children. If this isn't a crime against humanity, I don't know what is. Avoidable deaths could total 100,000s. More: spectator.co.uk/article/childr…

Not just #Shell ... #TotalEnergies ' Pouyanne: 'We are facing a situation where European shareholders, either they sell or maintain, and US shareholders are buying.' European majors consider a different economic & political environment in the US. #oilandgas theenergynewsbeat.substack.com/p/totalenergie…

The #shale revolution has catapulted the US into energy superpower status (the world's largest producer of both #oilandgas ), but the country has also seen an overall reduction in it's CO2 emissions. This is mostly due to the displacement of #coal by #natgas . #energytransition

Unless there's a quick resolution and the electorate's attention shifted elsewhere, these 'student protesters' ('useful idiots' is the Cold War term) will constitute one of Trump's greatest electoral assets this election season.

Anyone interested in putting together a dynamics of #energytransition / future of #fossilfuels type panel proposal for #ISA2025 please get in touch!

Three years of exceptional geopolitical turmoil has been kind to the #BAESystems share price. #investing #stockmarkets

Producing 3+ million barrels per day, the Delaware Basin alone (a section of the larger #Permian Basin's #shale production) produces more oil today than does #Kuwait , a core #OPEC member state. One more indication of America's new status as _the_ #energy superpower. #oilandgas

Brought this one home from #Houston for our youngest. I figured it was on message. Houston Roughnecks #oilandgas

I think that what I like most about being in #Houston is that I can enjoy #Texas and not have to see one single reminder of the #Dallas C*****s.

Enjoyed my visit to the famed Baker Institute today. A most excellent place to talk and learn about #oilandgas , in the leafy oasis that is the Rice University’s campus just a stone’s throw from the bustling downtown.
