Saudi oil fields burn after an UAV attack

Experts predict a jump in oil prices in connection with the incident that occurred in Saudi Arabia. Middle Eastern media report an attack on one of the world's largest oil fields, as well as on Saudi Aramco’s other infrastructure. We are talking about the Abkayk and Khurais deposits.

The media, citing the Saudi Ministry of the Interior, reported that these facilities in Saudi Arabia were subjected to a massive attack using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

As a result, the attack led to the occurrence of large fires at the deposits and transportation facilities of "black gold".

Dozens of vehicles and hundreds of firefighters work at the fire sites. According to the Saudi emergency services, the fires were localized. There is no data on the dead and injured at this moment. At the same time, experts note that the damage from striking these objects globally can amount to several billion dollars - due to changes in the price of a barrel of oil. Saudi Arabia itself has to carry out large-scale restoration work.

At this time, no one has yet claimed responsibility for strikes at Saudi Aramco’s facilities. However, Middle Eastern media suggest that this could have been accomplished by a Hussite group. At the same time, accusations against Iran rained down.

Explosions are heard behind the frames of one of the published video. It is stated that we can talk about a terrorist attack "on the ground":

Hussites have had enough of smoke? Or someone's provocation? Let me know ...

[donavi49]

Yes, even the Khusits ​​use drums and kamikaze UAVs at a strategic distance (more than 1000km from the Khusit territory).

[Shurik70]

I do not understand. There is a clear skirmish - machine guns, machine guns, explosions are heard. And these that shoot - LAUGH ...
It seems that these people will understand what War and Death are only when they themselves touch.
And it is surprising that only now this attack has occurred. War with the Hussites long time coming. Iran oil prices need to be raised. So both those, and those, in theory, something like that should have done a long time ago. Themselves Saudi they also screwed up heavily with lower oil prices, so it’s possible that they themselves arranged this attack. Generally, this attack is ALL profitable, but happened just now.

[wellaut]

The time has come to raise oil prices. And who specifically sent the UAV is not the point and it is important.

Yes, we have the price of gas rising at any! What from an increase, what from a decrease in the price of oil.
Rather, it depends on the requests of the children, wives and mistresses of our bonzes.

[Amin_vivec]

How does it matter? Now, within one or two days, it will become "highly likely absolutely reliably established (because there is no one else but him)" that these are insidious Iranian drones. They will show a fragment on which it says "made in IRAN", and we will have a round of tension in the Middle East.

Those who need expensive oil.

[asv363]

It is interesting that the recently appointed new KSA energy minister spoke about the desire to raise oil prices to 80 $.

[ProkletyiPirat]

I think he will want to sell at a higher price even when oil costs $ 1000, which is normal for the seller to want to sell as expensive as possible ...

[Arthur 85]

In my opinion, everyone in the world needs expensive oil ... But I wonder what prevents it from convening a conference and forever tying oil to gold, and gold to a package of ten leading currencies? .. Oh yes, traders will have to go to janitors. Well then, of course, no need.

[ProkletyiPirat]

You are utter nonsense, that’s what matters to the STATE about some traders out there? Well, let it be in one country, or even in a dozen countries, there are traders who will force the authorities to give them preferences, but damn dozens and hundreds of countries in the world, they don’t introduce the gold standard, huh? Think about it and it will immediately become clear to you that the STATE does not benefit from this.

In general, read what the "fixed \ floating material standard of money and its problems and disadvantages" is, as well as what is the "inflation tax". In general, the phrase "money should work, and not lie like a dead weight" did not appear out of nowhere, and today's states do not want to receive the degradation of their economies because of "money-boxes".

[Arthur 85]

Aren't you a liberal? The state is very much concerned, for example, whether farmers / collective farmers will be able to buy diesel fuel tomorrow, to pour it into a combine harvester and to mow wheat, so that the day after tomorrow the hungry population, and so always forever displeased the capital, would not come to visit the cabinet of ministers. I’m not talking about more complex things. And when the price of the most important energy carrier is determined by a codla of several hundred people on the London Stock Exchange, it seems to me that this is wrong.

[ProkletyiPirat]

Quote: Arthur 85

And when the prices of the most important energy carrier are determined by a codle of several hundred people on the London Stock Exchange, I think this is wrong.

So what's the problem? come up with something better! Just to begin with, before dissolving again the verbiage about the next version of the "material standard of money", figure out why they were abandoned. What to look for, I described above, for a start, at least google why the copper / silver / gold standards were abandoned and why the energy standard was not adopted.

Go know

Out of my ear, I heard that in a country, large volumes of shale oil are produced without any profitability due to low oil prices. There is still a redhead president

[Alien From]

What a tricky move, mattresses overslept their happiness .....

[bayard]

What is a UAV attack ?! There a rifle battle with a sabotage group is heard, and then a powerful explosion with a fire.
The Hussites launched sabotage attacks on the oil infrastructure of the Saudis.
And it’s too early to talk about oil prices, while it’s just panic on the exchanges and if everything is not so serious, then it will settle down tomorrow.

[Pereira]

Do exchanges work on Saturdays? I do not know. If not, then the panic is delayed until Monday.

[bayard]

The article states a possible increase in oil prices, as the infrastructure of oil fields and oil transportation is damaged. The price of damage is estimated at a preliminary billions of dollars.
I rather meant the panic in the "exchange community".
But judging by the statements of the Saudis, the attacks were multiple, on various elements of the infrastructure and "it was stated that it could be a terrorist attack" on the ground. "
And if so, then there may soon be a sequel. And it is not a fact that Hussites, and even more so Iran, may be involved in this - the Gulf War is not at all in his interests.

[carstorm 11]

yes what a fight there. when it is not clear where it came from, they start firing into all theoretically possible places and directions. Or maybe they’re just trying to bring down. or maybe something explodes and the sound is similar. go know ...

[bayard]

"A possible terrorist attack" on the ground "has been announced.
The damage done is billions.
The attacks are multiple and RESULTING.
The place of events is very far from Yemen.
The beneficiary is definitely not Iran.

[Amin_vivec]

It is clear that it is not Iran, but there must be a culprit - and they will be appointed just Iran.

[bayard]

Everything happens at night.
What is "drone shooting"?
From the rifleman.
At night !
To the sound?
The smell?
The nature of the firing is just characteristic of the fire at the detected sabotage group at the object - sighting, in short bursts, possible return fire and explosion / explosions.
Someone seeks to rekindle the war in the Gulf and the oil Arab world. Anyone who needs a high oil price and expansion of sales markets. The one who has already "blown up" oil tankers in the Gulf shouting "Hold Iran !!!" ...

[Rzzz]

Something flew in, banged. Security in a panic burns around where movement in the dark appears.

[donavi49]

Rather, it’s a UAV shooter. The diversion group is 100km maximum. Objects under attack are generally on the other side of Saudi Arabia, even north of Riyadh. About 1100km from the nearest Hussites.

Will not settle quickly! This one on Trump's "tweet" races are per diem. And if the Houthis take seriously the infrastructure of the Saudis ... There won't be enough Iranian oil either. The oil market is very reactive. There is simply NOTHING to make up for the "loss" of serious volumes. And shale oil must be SAVED! And think about it. Who is the WORLD'S BIGGEST oil exporter? Not guessing ... USA! So who benefits?

[bayard]

Perhaps you are right - the beneficiary in the event of a war in the Gulf is the United States. But even the consequences of the attack and the extent of the damage are not yet known. We listen to the cries of political scientists ...

[Tests]

Soon, sources from the British intelligence community will report that fires are the work of the GRU, saying that the head of the GRU before Putin is trying to bleach after the failure with the Skripals. (I understand that humor is so-so, like my mood on a working Saturday. It's time to get ready for work and rain outside the window ... All visitors to VO have a good weekend!)

Easy to fix with an umbrella!

[Berkut24]

However, Middle Eastern media suggest that this could have been accomplished by a Hussite group. At the same time, accusations against Iran rained down.

And for me it’s necessary as always to find who is profitable. There is an oversupply of oil in the market, and lowering the price for some is becoming critical. And who has the smallest margin? Iran doesn’t. The Hussites do not have it at all. But there is one country across the ocean where a price below $ 50 per barrel can bury an entire industry.
And another argument. UAV control range. This deposit is far from the Houthis and Iran. But the American Air Force bases are just a stone's throw away. We superimpose here the very recent events of the attack by "unknown" several tankers in the bay with anti-ship missiles (yes, the type of missiles was not determined by the Americans, who fired - too!).
Something tells me that the villain will not be found again and will have to appoint someone. There would be a reason, but there would be bombs.

[KVU-NSVD]

Reasoned arguments. And tomorrow there will be accusations of an attack from Iran.

[Kosh]

The Iranian Khamits UAV kamikaze known as Samad-3 flew once even flew to Dubai Airport in the UAE. According to UN experts who studied the remains of one of these UAVs that crashed near Riyadh, their maximum range is around 1500 km. There, it’s true that UAVs fly at such distances without a satellite control channel only at a given course, but this is enough for attacks on such large objects.
I'm not talking about the fact that the Iranians could Husites fit their latest Howeizeh cruise missiles for combat testing, with these missiles the declared range is up to 1300 km. This is enough to get from Yemen to the Abkayk and Khurais fields.

[Kosh]

Now the official statement of the Yemenite Hussites with the details of this operation has gone to the media. Allegedly, a total of 10 drones were deployed for this attack against Saudi oil facilities in Abkaik and Hurais

[PavelT]

Congratulations to the Hussite patriots on a successful high-tech operation! It was possible to impudent Wahhabi Saudis to set beards on fire!

[PavelT]

I agree that this is beneficial to American firms that produce shale oil. They are better at higher oil prices. But our oil companies are also better off with higher prices - in the tundra with permafrost they can’t get cheap (like in the desert). So it is beneficial to both us and them. Well, it’s time for all American patriots to avenge the Saudis for the 11 of September 2001 of the year. As the saying goes: good luck!

In general, I believe that it is time for all people of goodwill on the planet to understand that this obscurantist Wahhabi state, spreading its sextant faith and terrorism throughout the world, should not exist at all. To defeat him to hell, confiscate their money abroad as terrorist and play unnoticed (as Libyan money began to play - you won’t find any ends). Everything is in profit, there is less than one evil kingdom of evil on Earth ... A purely humanitarian action!

As for the drone range argument, you are partially right. But it is possible, after all, in advance, along the assumed flight path, to arrange 5-6 agents with control panels tuned to the frequency of this UAV, to designate for them the timing of UAV entry into their zones and they will "lead" the UAV from themselves to the next zone, and the zones may not even touch. Cheap and cheerful, albeit risky.

[Rzzz]

Why lead him? He himself will fly perfectly to the desired point. The only thing next to the point is to check the integrity of the navigation support whether it is jammed and if there is distortion.

[Alex_You]

Someone needs to skyrocket oil prices.

[Vadim237]

Mn sure - on the stock exchange from a sharp increase you can make good money.

[Alex_You]

And not only, you can substitute the Saudis as an unreliable supplier.

[Vadim237]

One dollar in excess of 42 declared for the Russian budget a year gives 117 billion rubles - so good luck to the Hussites in attacks on the Saudi oil refineries and storage facilities - these have already stated that today's attack reduced oil production in the country by 50% for an indefinite time.

[Yujanin]

Experts predict a jump in oil prices in connection with the incident that occurred in Saudi Arabia.

If the largest refinery in the world does not work, then it turns out that the demand for raw materials (oil) will fall. In this case, how can oil prices soar? Am I thinking something wrong?

[Kosh]

This is not a refinery; in Abkayk there is a plant for stabilizing crude oil coming from nearby giant fields. In order to prepare for storage, transportation and processing, crude oil must be preliminarily prepared; for this purpose associated gas, mineral salts, water, etc. are removed from it. This was actually done at this enterprise, after which oil was sent from there to Saudi export terminals. If this enterprise ceases to work at all, then there Saudi oil exports may collapse.

[Yujanin]

In this case, of course, oil prices will jump, which is good for my country personally. ATP for a clear answer

[Amin_vivec]

The logic is this:
1) the refinery does not work -> there is a shortage of oil products -> they can be obtained by "additional loading" of already existing production facilities that are not 100% loaded -> which requires the purchase of additional raw materials.
2) turmoil in the Persian Gulf -> the risks of tanker transportation are increasing -> an increase in strategic oil reserves is required in case of their complete suspension -> explosive demand for oil.

Not, on the contrary, it is necessary to arrange a joint operation against Saudi Arabia, as the ISIS financier. And then they would confiscate their Saudi money and slowly steal it - as they did with the Libyan ones. All profit!

Vitalik! Iran supplies the Hussites with weapons, in particular ballistic and anti-ship cruise missiles, not to mention drones. And he launched the production of these same missiles in Yemen. The Hussites themselves would not be able to cope with this, they have no time for this in a country where a civil war is raging. So the neighbors will always have claims to Iran, especially the Saudis. Even without the hint of the USA and Israel. After all, when you are attacked by Iranian drones or missiles, no one will look for the guilty party. Iranian drone - it means Iran is to blame, even if it’s on its side to this attack

For the country, this may be good. Our budget is imposed on the basis of oil prices. But whether it will be good for the population. The prices for fuels and lubricants will skyrocket, then for products, since everything is interconnected here. And they will take off.

At the time when ours slowed down the supply of S-300s to Iran and the whistle in the media began in defense of Iran, there was a statement from one of the specialists in the Middle East. The point boiled down to the fact that the supply of two or four S-300 battalions cannot solve the air defense problem. They will be destroyed in the first place and all Western media (newspapers, Internet, TV) will be full of photographs of the wreckage of this system with replicas that it is useless for anything. Accordingly, those willing to buy will decrease significantly. So it is with "Pantsir". Nobody began to understand the reason for the defeat. The main thing was struck

Quote: Vitaliy Tsymbal

And where are the vaunted air defense systems from the United States, for which the Saudis have paid billions? Maybe they should take a closer look at Russian air defense?

Well, the US air defense systems are by no means bad. This is clearly visible, especially if you do not remember every time 1990 and the Patriot system, which was insufficiently developed at that time. But over the past 25-30 years, the system has changed, and much more. Emli used to be suitable only for intercepting aerodynamic targets, but now it can intercept cruise missiles, both ballistic missiles and aircraft ... The question is not whose system is better or worse. Americans should not be considered suckers who initially adopt a system that is useless for anything. The question is different. WHO IS OPERATING IT. Question is about KOSORUKOSTI those who manage such a system. And if the calculations KOSORUKI, and Arabs are often like that, then give them at least the best air defense system, at least C-400, though C-700at least some alien space defense system - they will still smear. This is the first factor.
Second. Poorly tuned control of the air situation, if in reality drones were used and at a distance of more than 1000 km. This means that for almost 2 hours, these drones quietly moved in the airspace of the KSA.

Well, the Iranian UAV Samad-3 has enough range. There is a range of about 1000 km. And the entire nomenclature of these UAVs in the Hussites is. And Samad-1, Samad-2 and Samad-3.

It’s necessary not only to have missiles, but also to direct them at the target. Judging by the result, they pointed with a 100% hit. You do not need to consider Saud as fools, these objects are very well guarded. You just need to find who the enemy is, and not who the Americans are blaming it on

Well, if this is the largest object of the oil and gas complex, then it would have to be able to miss. So 100% hit was provided before the launches.
The issue of security (in the sense of air defense) - here are the questions. If the events were at night, but optical detection can be excluded. But why was it not conducted (or was conducted very badly) monitoring of the air situation? Although not too many of the air defense missile systems could work on UAVs, Except for the "Avenger", "Mistral", possibly "Crotal" (although unlikely), "Patriots" and "Advanced Hawks" for UAVs - it's like a cannon against sparrows.
Speaking of guns. Here are small-caliber anti-aircraft artillery they have more than 1000 barrels

Flying trifles with enveloping the terrain at extremely low altitudes - in this case, these 1000 shafts will be of little use, and even less so from air defense systems.

The boa KAA (Alexander), dear, we have a storm. The umbrella turned upside down, broke three knitting needles, soaked it (thanks to the brothers from China), closed it, put it in a bag, pulled the hood deeper and jumped through the puddles to the bus stop. And it blows for 2 days from Nenoksy, and a surge of water from the sea. The President of the Russian Academy of Sciences made happy yesterday, oh, the day before yesterday: https://www.interfax.ru/russia/676384 Thank you so much for the song, I smiled from the bottom of my heart!

The Trump Brigade was clearly at work.
To raise oil prices.
He's a "businessman", however.

You can’t even guess where the ears stick out -
1. After attacks on oil facilities in Saudi Arabia U.S. offered the kingdom defense assistance.
2. USA also declared their readiness if necessary tap into your strategic oil reservesto stabilize the market.
3. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that Iran is behind the attacks on Saudi Arabia. According to Pompeo, Iran launched an unprecedented attack on a global energy supplier and is responsible for nearly 100 attacks on Saudi Arabia. He added that United States will hold Tehran accountable.
