On the eve of the media reported negative export values ​​of Russian oil Urals

264

The day before, there was information from Argus Media that the export price of a barrel of Russian Urals oil fell below zero. Such indicators indicate that the cost of transporting oil, paying export duties, and other costs directly exceeded the cost of oil as a produced product.

The Agency reports that last Monday and Tuesday, the prices for Russian brand oil in the export version looked as follows: minus 1007 and 1200 rubles per ton, respectively.



Many decided that the publication Argus media is an April Fool’s joke, but it was reprinted by leading Russian news agencies, including TASS.

Suppliers were worried that oil sales transactions would result in losses. This in itself is an incredible phenomenon for the market, indicating that the oil market is in a deep crisis.

To date, Brent crude oil is trading at around $ 26,2 per barrel.

With such oil prices, as well as against the background of the well-known additional cause of the economic crisis, our country will have to actively use accumulated reserves.

Earlier it was reported that with oil prices in the region of $ 30, the reserves of the Russian Federation will last for 6-10 years. However, the price of oil dipped significantly below these indicators.

    Why shouldn't the Russian Federation create an "LLC" and buy when it's cheap, in order to sell it when it's expensive? There is something similar in the USA.

          Oil is sold under long-term contracts. That is, company A undertakes to supply company B with a certain amount of oil during the year in equal shares, monthly, at the exchange price at the beginning of each month, for a deviation from the contract of more than 10% - a fine.

        According to IHS analysis, of the three largest world oil producers, Russia has the smallest number of available storage facilities - for about eight days. These figures are based on the volume of production that can be maintained if exports run out. Saudi Arabia has 18 days and 30 days in the United States.

        Thus, they punished for "spoiling money", or, more simply, for counterfeiting. It is believed that then counterfeit coins were melted and fed to those who fell for greed and greed.
        Instead of tin, lead was also used. Most likely because it also melts easily. It is believed that this was a purely Russian preventive measure, but many scholars believe that the princes borrowed punishment from the Romans, although the punishment was also found in the Jews.

        Well, firstly, conservation and temporary suspension of production are far from the same thing.
        Secondly, calculate what the storage of oil, for which there is no demand at the moment, flies into.
        And the third, in my opinion, is the most important. Oil is a non-renewable resource. Our reserves are still quite large, but not unlimited. And in any case, in the future, when the world's oil reserves subside, the price of it will skyrocket. So to pay for getting rid of these reserves is the height of adyism!

      We don’t have to pay anything to anyone - the price of $ 26 is the cost of producing a barrel from 9 to 15 bucks. Now they will simply cut production in conjunction with a decrease in demand and will wait for Rosneft, Lukoil and other oil and gas companies to return the world economy to their normal condition for self-support in cases of crises associated with reduced sales and falling oil prices.

    The situation repeats itself. In 2008, we had about $ 600 billion in reserves. There was a crisis and these reserves were used to support the banking system, that's a miracle, right? Instead of supporting the real sector, industries, enterprises, the state supported the parasites. And how beautifully it was presented: "banks are the blood of the economy, they need to be supported, otherwise the economy will stop." Then they lent our banks and our banks for 300-400 American rubles. Again, it looked pretty decent, it seemed like a loan and at interest. And did anyone wonder where these banks are now, where are the loans, where are the interest? In theory, they were supposed to return, but they just did not return. Those banks either went bankrupt or closed. In short, no money. Now is the year 2020, we have accumulated enough reserves, again we need an excuse to put our hand in the box. And then the oil fell and the coronavirus, ideal circumstances. So wait, now the reserves will drink, they will redistribute something, and we will again rebuild the country after the next crisis. And this will continue until the constitutional order changes.

        In Russia today, the oil industry is the main real sector.

        But what about the statements of our guarantor that Russia got off the "oil needle"? Oh, now and get rid of the cons of the "patriots".

        and who is the real sector?

        These are probably the speculators who bring clothes and consumer goods from China and Turkey, while calling themselves entrepreneurs. Here are the ears from the donkey.

      this is not a help.
      Help is free.
      Medical masks and equipment received by the United States as a gift from Russia, as the Russian press reported for several days, were not humanitarian aid, but commercial supply. This was reported on the website of the US Department of State.
      In a continuation of the telephone conversation on March 30 between President Trump and President Putin, the United States agreed to purchase the necessary medications, including ventilators and personal protective equipment, from Russia, which were transferred to FEMA on April 1, "it said. in the statement of the department.

      Earlier, many Russian media reported with fanfare that Russia made a generous gift by sending an An-124-100 Ruslan with medical equipment to the United States. It is worth noting that shortly before this, the Russian government issued a decree banning the export of medical goods abroad during the period of emergency measures to combat the spread of the coronavirus epidemic.

    Such indicators show that the cost of transporting oil, paying export duties, and other costs directly exceeded the cost of oil as a produced product.

    If you really want to, you can sort out this list of costs and "temporarily adjust" some points by an effort of political will. You look, and the minus has already turned into plus.

        MOSCOW, March 26. / TASS /. As of March 20, Russia's international reserves amounted to $ 551,2 billion, having decreased over the week by $ 29,8 billion (-5,1%), the Bank of Russia said.

        The regulator noted that such a drop in the indicator occurred "under the predominant impact of negative currency and market revaluation."

        So do not underestimate the possibilities ...
        The "regulator" of the FRS, to which the DEPENDENT countries of the Central Bank are tied, let them then calculate their losses.
        Although ... they do not stop the machine. Believe me ... today the global economy has been blown away like a soap bubble. And by the way ... the consumer both received and receives the FLOW ... (think ... the price has decreased). Without pants, we certainly will not stay.

    Earlier it was reported that with oil prices in the region of $ 30, Russia's reserves would last for 6-10 years.

    This is on condition that there will be no so-called "misuse" of these reserves. And we can't do without it. Half of them will be taken apart, one has only to uncork the "capsule". And bankers will need to support gas and oil producers as well.

    I am not an economist, but I think that our economy is too dependent on oil exports and cannot afford not to sell ...

    The contribution of the sale of oil is about 30% in budget revenues.
    We continue to sell, not because the economy is heavily dependent, but because there is a trade war for a global redistribution of the oil and oil products market.

    For the sake of the collapse and division of the Russian Federation, all of its natural resources from the United States, it is quite reasonable to preserve its shale oil production and support the Saudis in their struggle to capture all markets in the world. The United States, unlike the Russian Federation, can stop its oil industry for several years and buy oil for free from the Saudis. This will affect the US GDP in fractions of a percent. Ronald Reagan would do just that.

    Can not. Because the entire shale industry in the United States rests on bank loans that go bankrupt. Money is forced to flow including in the banking sector, a lot of money. It cannot last long.
