Asia, the primary purchaser of oil and gas supplies out of the Gulf, has been hit hardest by the sudden blockage of approximately one-fifth of the world's crude trade. Energy prices are soaring throughout the region, and global oil reserves are running dangerously low. As a result, Asian leaders are racing to establish new sources of energy, from accelerating home-grown clean energy infrastructure…

Ukraine's state energy regulator has cut storage fees for natural gas by 11% in a bid to accelerate domestic gas injection, with an option to further lower the rate if capacities are booked long-term for at least one year.  The discount creates favorable tariff structures to leverage Ukraine's massive storage capabilities. Ukraine has set a target to store at least 14.6 billion cubic meters (bcm) of gas, good for 34% of total capacity, before the 2026–2027 heating season. Ukraine is home to Europe's largest underground gas storage capacity,…

Donald Trump and Bibi Netanyahu deserve thanks for boosting Eurasia connectivity after their attacks on Iran resulted in the collapse of ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. Unfortunately, the attacks may reduce real labor incomes by as much as US$3 trillion globally by 2027, according to the International Labour Organization.  The direct cost to the U.S. taxpayer for military operations is US$29 billion (so far) according to the Pentagon, and about US$35 billion in extra gas and diesel costs since the start of the war, according to…

Donald Trump returned from Beijing calling his two-day summit with Xi Jinping a "success,” but the rare earth market is less convinced.  Despite closely watched talks on May 14-15, no formal agreement emerged on China's export controls, and shipments of the critical heavy minerals that power everything from F-35 fighters to electric vehicles remain well below historical levels. That is the assessment from BMI, the Fitch Group research unit, which said China's stranglehold on global rare earth supply is expected to "stay firmly in place"…

Russia sharply escalated threats against Kyiv, warning of "systematic and consistent strikes" as Russia's top diplomat urged American citizens to evacuate the Ukrainian capital. A day after Moscow pummeled the Kyiv region with hundreds of drones -- and a powerful new hypersonic missile -- Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on May 25 to advise him to pull American diplomatic staff and US citizens out of Kyiv. Russia has justified its increasing threats citing an attack on a school dormitory in the Russian-occupied…

The chair of BP has been fired after less than a year, after “serious concerns” about his conduct were lodged with the energy major’s board. Albert Manifold was stripped of his roles as chair and director of the London-listed petrochemicals giant having only taken the reins last July, with director Amanda Blanc saying the board had unearthed several cases of serious misconduct during his tenure. The ousting was reportedly on account of his “volcanic” temper towards colleagues, which stretched to verbal abuse and bullying.…
