The cut of $0.30 per barrel, to parity with Oman/Dubai from a $0.30 a barrel premium for February, was the fourth consecutive cut…

This is seen dropping to as little as 150,000 barrels by 2050. In fact, it may drop even more sharply…

The runaway energy demands of the artificial intelligence boom are pushing a new wave of innovative next-gen energy ambitions. Big Tech is pouring money into fast-tracking the development of futuristic energy alternatives like enhanced geothermal and nuclear fusion in an attempt to stay one step ahead of the energy monster the sector is creating.  Large language models are already consuming about 1.5 percent of the world’s energy, according to figures from the International Energy Agency.
