Think about this: Russia can skirt US oil sanctions by increasing production in its Controlling interest in a Iraq oilfield!

Huge Russian-Run Iraqi Oilfield May See Near-1 Million Bpd Output Boost
... That's why Sleepy Joe sanctioned them.
Where you been?

Biden's push against Putin is all theatre.
Biden (The Big Guy) is weak ... And everyone knows-of it.

So you're rootin' for Putin - the Butcher of Kyev, Kharkiv and Mariupol?

How do you square that with your War Resister self-image?

Lukoil can't even get the Iraqis to pay $6 billion in arrears owed for developing that oil field.

Good luck to your buddy Putin in getting his hands on that money by 1) persuading Iraq to remit it and 2) routing it through China.

Uh, how so?

The Russian government doesn't own a share of Lukoil. And the CEO and largest shareholder of Lukoil has condemned the Ukraine war.

I don't believe the Russian government will receive any tax revenues from the Iraqi production. If Lukoil had used the money it spent on the Iraqi field to invest more in the in Russian oil patch, then the production and income WOULD have been taxed by the Russian government, and at very high rates. Oil and gas produce something 35% to 40% of total Russian government revenues. So in other words, this Iraqi oilfield deal will take money OUT of Putin's hands.

Please note that this is an example why all Americans benefit from domestic oil and gas production, not just the investor class like you. The income taxes, severance taxes, ad valorem taxes, royalties and lease bonuses paid to the federal, state and local governments mean the taxes you and I pay can be lower. Or they can be put to use to lower government debt.

Putin may block Iran from sending oil. ...
Venezuela and the Saudis don't wanna send any.
Iran will no doubt wanna be taken off the
State Dept. Terror List...

None o' this bullshit would be happening
if Trump were on.

YOU liberal lads wanted Biden - so NOW you're stuck with him.

That why I said "think", you numbnutted hooker board economist. Now back to you grammar popo job.

I'm one of the few posters in this forum who had bet on AMERICAN OIL COMPANIES. So what you see as bragging is in fact me pointing out the difference between your words and my actions. You little parrots crying about energy independence haven't a clue wyf you're talking about. You have no skin in the game. And you shouldn't if what you post any indication of your knowledge.

Btw oil was going up BEFORE Putin invaded Ukraine.

There has been a Putin price hike. Jesus...I said oil had been on the rise, I didn't say it didn't spike after the invasion.

You're very fortunate this is the internet. You style of debating probably does not stand up well in close quarters.

Maybe I should have said Putin can skirt oil sanctions, afterall he is Russia.

(CNN)The sprawling billion-dollar palace that sits on a hilltop overlooking the Black Sea is seen by some Kremlin critics as the ultimate emblem of Russian President Vladimir Putin's legacy of corruption.

Dubbed "Putin's Palace," the 190,000 square-foot mega-mansion was purportedly built for his personal use with funds from billionaire oligarchs, whom he allegedly allowed to flourish in Russia's notoriously corrupt economy so long as they shared the wealth -- with him.
