Video: USA Oil Policies explained



Do you know who has the biggest oil and energy reserves? It may not be who you think..

IER Board Member, Steven Hayward, exposes how US energy policies have restricted access to America's vast energy resources.

Are Barrels Of Red Diesel Cheaper?

Are Barrels Of Red Diesel Cheaper?
Red diesel is much similar to white diesel however, it is very cheap in terms of cost. Besides, you may be amazed when you compare the performance of the two. In terms of performance efficiency, white diesel steals the show. On contrary, if you compare the efficiency in terms of economy, barrels of red diesel takes the spotlight. They are also refer as tractor diesel owing to its use in transportation. Similarly, barrels of kerosene are also use in rural areas as a means to fuel their transporting vehicles. Besides, cheap kerosene finds another use in heating systems that run on it. However, red diesel is the most efficient performer, when compared with it buying cost than most other fuels. Hence, red diesel is cheaper.  

Difference Between Red Diesel And Regular Diesel

Difference Between Red Diesel And Regular Diesel

Red diesel is nothing but another form of diesel. The only difference is, the Red diesel is broken into fragments and sulphur that is regularly added in diesel is not added in this. The Red diesel to look separate from regular diesel is mixed with a red colour dye to become red and hence obtains its name. This diesel is very cheap compared to conventional diesel as there is no fuel taxes on this diesel and it is major use of this diesel is to heat up homes. The regular diesel is very costly because it has high taxes levied upon it and it can be used in automobiles.    

How Do We Obtain Gas Oil?

How Do We Obtain Gas Oil?

Gas oil is nothing but the oil fuel that is used in our day-to-day life. Diesel is a type of gas oil. This oil is obtained from crude oil that is extracted from oil wells, which are located on seabed and land. This type of fuel is being obtained from furnace or oil refinery, as the crude oil is heated under tremendous pressure and temperature it breaks and forms vapors, which are collected in different sections of the furnace. These fractions are later cooled under various processes and we obtain different type of fuels, in which gas oil is one.

How Kerosene Finds Use As Heating Oil?

How Kerosene Finds Use As Heating Oil?

In case you are wondering about relation between kerosene and oils used for heating heaters, then stop seeing the two as two different sides. Very few people who have seen kerosene being use in jet airplanes believe that it is also use as oil for heaters. In fact, crude oils that are cheap in cost are use as heating oil to heat the system. However, in case your process requires high calorific value of oil, then use of crude kerosene oil is almost indispensable. Besides, it is cheap. In fact, the real value of fuel oil lies with the number of times it underwent distillation. Hence, it because of its low cost and high calorific value, it is use as fuel oil for heating purpose.  

How Spill Kits Help?

Moreover, different fuels have their unique set of advantages and disadvantages. In general, gasoline, natural gas, diesel and even propane are use as fuel to generators. Besides, you may change your choice of fuel based on the efficiency that you desire from the generator. In terms of fuel, gasoline is most common fuel that is use in generators. Besides, diesel is consider as the safest fuel for generators, as it exhibits least inflammability. Hence, different factors contribute to choice of one fuel over other.

Various Uses of Kerosene

Various Uses of Kerosene

Kerosene is used in many processes. The major utilization of kerosene is, it is used for heating purpose and due to its cheap abstraction value from crude oil, it is a very good source of heat and cheaper too as compared to other fuels. Kerosene is some times also used in various other exercises also. It is also used in ATF or Aviation Turbine Fuel, it is also a part of this expensive fuel and in some places, and it is used in single entity for aviation purpose. This use makes it not only important and due to its price factor is very significant too.  

What Makes Fame Free Red Diesel An Infamous Fuel Alternative?

What Makes Fame Free Red Diesel An Infamous Fuel Alternative?

Indeed demand for fame free red diesel oil is on splurge and prices are on a constant rise. Hence, it is ideal to have a dealer who can provide you with subsidized rates. Moreover, quality is the central issue that needs a closer look. Ideally, red diesel having sulphur content less than 1000 ppm (Parts Per Million) is consider fairly good in quality. Besides, the quality restrictions differ from one application to another. In fact, red diesel is also refer to as tractor diesel as it finds its application in tractor engines. Apart from price, another reason why it is use to run tractors is that red diesel is apt for vehicles that does not demand high-speed motor engines. Thus, ease in availability and low cost makes it an infamous fuel alternative.

Besides, there are bright chances that you may still remove the oil that you have mistakenly place in the engine. You may simply use siphon to remove oil from the tank and wait until the wet part simply evaporates. To aid this, simply open your fuel tank and allow it to dry faster.

Why Peat briquettes Are Important?

Why Peat briquettes Are Important?

Peat Briquettes mainly consist of natural Irish peat. They are very good solid fuel, give less smoke, and burn quite well. They are also easy to store and the amount of space needed to store them is very less compared to any other solid fuel. They also provide good fuel to heat up water, as they are very dry from any other solid fuel. They not only have a unique quality that they are heat resistance, meaning that a single spark does not burn them. Peat Briquettes provide a controlled combustion making then ideal for home use, such as chimney etc.

News: Chevron Creates Solar Oil Power

Chevron technology Ventures (a division of Chevron USA), have launched a brand new project to test solar power energy production of oil. The project demonstrates the production of oil using over 7,600 mirrors to focus the solar energy into a specially designed solar boiler. The steam produced from this project is then injected large oil reservoirs in order to increase oil production. The project is being heralded as thelargest of it's kind in the world.
"Through this demonstration, we want to determine the feasibility of using solar power for enhanced oil recovery," said Desmond King, president of Chevron Technology Ventures. "This technology has the potential to augment gas-powered steam generation and may provide an additional resource in areas of the world where natural gas is expensive or not readily available."

This project should allow more effective oil extraction that yields strong results in areas where oil production is currently weak. This means oil supplies should start increasing when the project is in full swing to keep up with consumer demand.

Article: Haut Spearheads Green Drilling Movement

Article: The 10 Oil Commandments

We've been scouring the internet this morning and tsumbled across a very interesting read over on Oil Price that we thoguht we should share with our readers.

The 10 Commandments

As thier own introduction blurb states:
If they are not actually "commandments" they might as well be. The original set of 10 provided a simple set of rules for members of a small community to live in reasonable harmony with one another, and that is essentially the requirement for an oil-dependent society that has necessarily fragmented into smaller communities, once its supply of oil has been severely curtailed.

But never fear it's not all about doom and gloom! Just have a read of these helpful suggestions and decide what you think about Oil Price's 10 Commandments about Oil use today. Do you think they have it right?

This meansinvestors are very nervoud about weaker demand coupled with lower energy prices but will the consumer notice this?

"We're also at a lull in the market" after the summer driving season, independent analyst Stephen Schork said. "This is when you tend to see weakness" in oil prices.

Crude Oil fell by $1.59 (roughly 2%) and finished the day at a rate of $77.61 per Barrel. Prices got as low as $76.85 earlier on but the prices stabalised somewhat. Reports suggest this is the lowest barrels of oil have been since September 2010.In london however, Brent Crude dropped by only $1.05 coming out at $101.71 per barrel.

Kerosene
Again kerosene is just another name for Domestic Oil. Kerosene is the technical name for the fuel and can also be sometimes called Kerosine. Some dialects call this fuel Paraffin or Paraffin Oil instead of Kerosene such as South Africa. This is not to be confused with Paraffin Wax or the more viscous (thick) variety of Paraffin laxative.

Red Diesel
Red Diesel is another name for Domestic Oil and should not be confused with regular diesel for automobiles. Diesel and Red Diesel have slightly different compositions to each other as Diesel is designed for use in cars and other vehicles whereas Red Diesel should only be used as Domestic Oil such as Home Heating Oil. Red Diesel will always have a red colour to varying strengths as opposed to regular Diesel.
