Won't stay low for too long. Only Saudi Arabia and Kuwait can produce a barrel for less than $10. Another low cost producer is Iraq at $10.70. All other producers need higher prices to survive:

USA-36$
Canada-41$
Brazil-49$
UK-52$

And even the low cost producers need higher prices to fund their budgets. Saudi Arabia, Oman and Bahrain would run out of money in 5 years if prices remain under 50$. I would give it a year at most before prices are back up, at least above 55$.


The market respects no one.You can control the market for a long time like OPEC has been doing but eventually the market forces will carry the day.Its like somebody saying he bought britam shares at 35/= a year ago and if the share price doesn't go back to 35 he will be broke soon.This oil bear is a golden handcuffs situation on an international scale.

To answer the question. Even if oil traded at $0 per barrel, we would pay KES 50.00 per litre of petrol.
The KES 50.00 is made of of fixed costs which include government taxes, margins for oil marketing companies and distribution costs.

Im paraphrasing the ERC chair quoted in the standard yesterday.

Short answer. 50.00 For petrol
The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

Its not about being a colony, they don't have another pipeline option and I doubt Sudan will allow any body else to build a competitor pipeline. Its cheaper for Sudan to earn US $24 a barrel for 400,000 barrels a day and pay a local rebel than lose it entirely

I believe Southern Sudan needs The Lamu Port Southern Sudan-Ethiopia Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor project to avoid the Sudan route.. the project will open up and spur economic growth for the region...@ dreams are valid!!

If the SS guys got their shit together, they would stop fighting amongst themselves and fund the pipeline through Kenya from the sale of the oil but they have played into Sudan's hands.

Sudan makes about $1mn/day from SS oil while not having to worry about the politics except funding some faction or the other.

I think the key to watch is the US. Prices will stay low only if the US is satisfied with low prices. When US is dissatisfied with low prices you can bet they will cook up something even if it means declaring Saudi Arabia an axis of evil or suddenly there will be a coup in Angola or Iraq will invade Kuwait....... as in some big s*it will happen that will rock the market and prices will be up again.

Is it simple elementary mathematics challenges or @vvs you could not comprehend the figures in front of your eyes that you had to cook. Yes you are done with cooking, but the f@#kn shit thing is that the figure is approximately 10m$ daily or 3.600bs-$ annually or better said kshs360bn annually. That is equivalent to half of Kenya's commissioner of domestic taxes collections annually if my small brains have not forgotten the figures. Right before you and me, SS working for their better mortals. Unimaginable. Drool
This is crazy. Slavery at its best. Macharia should truly work with Silvia or they gonna sell those nationals to the devil for a song. Yawa @obiero help your brother here. This is shit, no need of owning a oil field or even producing oil, just have a pipeline then sit down and watch your wallet fatten. Sad{|= Sickquot; Sickquot;
