Crude Oil (Brent) is about 0 / barrel (spot) with natural gas at .3 MM BTU. How do you find %

Texas, drills for oil, natural gas, and is the #1 producer of wind power in the country. Texas also has different laws than the rest of the country, because we used to be our own country. I think the rest of the country should research Texas, then make a judgement about Drilling. Like Texas, [...]

The US has untapped oil and natural gas both underground and off shore, yet your party blocks any and all efforts for recovery of our own natural resources forcing imported oil and gasoline to be used. We all agree alternative energy needs to be used but thats years if not decades away, The public needs [...]

With their moratorium on oil drilling, still to this day
Their obstructionist attitude to new drilling for oil, natural gas and coal
Can we safely say that Obama is creating an energy crisis?
I agree that the Ethanol fiasco is unfortunate. To subsidize an energy source that is more expensive, more corrosive to engines and more polluting, is [...]

It is the fault of the Dems that we cannot drill in our backyard when we have so much oil , oil shale and natural gas . We could be off foreign oil in less than five years if allowed to drill off the coasts and Alaska, plus be allowed to remove the oil shale [...]

I believe we need to get off of oil not only because of the environment but also because of nation security. We are financing our enemies. I have no problem with increasing tax on gasoline but it must be done slowly in order to allow people time to adjust and it must apply [...]

If gas prices are so high & many prople would get out of their cars into public transit. Tell that to the comuters from Toronto who drive over 2 hours to get to work. Smog is everywhere in the greater Toronto. & everyone should carpool, walk, bike or take local transit. That’s maye the reason [...]

Why did they close 2 refineres in Jan. I know it was a mild month but still. Also, most homes now run on natural gas. I didnt think that needed crude oil. I think it just shows how much price gouging is really out there. Every quarter you hear about the billons of dollars in [...]

I know they are a lot more expensive.
Are there electrical parts that need replacing by high paid technicians.
I can replace the old tank type myself for about 0.00.
Can you install the high tech type by yourself or do you need a lot of
training..
I’m leaning toward the old fashion type.
What do you think? Wile it [...]

Comprehensive Energy Plan To Lower Gasoline Prices
This is how we will do it. And this why we will do it.
This country has so much under used industrial capacity in our Auto Plants, Airplane Plants, Steel Plants and Electronics Plants to make America Energy Independent in 2 to 5 years. We can build enough windmills and [...]

We are converting to natural gas and will want to unload the big eyesore. Should we just give it away to someone if they take care of moving it or should we ask payment for the tank itself? How much is it worth?

A year or so ago, we were approached by a company called "Just Energy" Corp. and invited to sign up for a natural gas fixed price program, promising to "lock your price in now for guaranteed protection against future increases."
I guess whenever a business offers me something, my first question is, "what’s in it for [...]

does anyone stop and think seriously that his PIPE DREAM of no world poverty is pathetic, the amount of resources that industrialized nations use is incredible, there isnt enough, natural gas, oil, wood, chemicals, and man made items to go around. think the price of gas is high, imagine human having a car, then [...]

Natural Gas is plentyfull and its power technology is not new. In Europe, where gasoline is always expensive, all auto manufacturers, including Ford and Opel(GM) have been manufacturing almost all of their trucks and SUVs with dual tanks for ever. One for Gasoline and one for GPL ( Liquid propane like for your grill) You [...]

It is a 1993 Chevrolet Caprice, V-8, 5 L engine.
I am tinkering with the idea to get the car converted from running on gas to run on propane/natural gas for the sake of money.
I am here just to get honest opinions of the people here how much it will cost me for the conversion.
Will it [...]

Gas to hit 4.00 a gallon in 2011!! What will American do as a nation to stop this giant LIE!! that our nation is running out of gas…How many more excuses do we have to listen to, to be forced to buy from the Foreign gas cartels.
We have loads of oil and other resources in [...]

"With commodities fromm oil to natural gas to grain to meat priced in dollars and becoming more expensive as the greenback falls, consumers have to take more out of their wallets to simply buy the same amount of goods."
Why are these commodities becoming more expensive as the dollar falls if they are priced in dollars? [...]

The cost of oil, natural gas, electricity are all at record highs. Refineries are at capacity, Electric plants cant supply enough, and america cant drill for its own resorces. Are they in the pocket of big energy?

Obama said yesterday that he would increase prices on oil, natural gas, and coal. Economists say that is the ‘Trifecta of disaster’- the ‘Perfect Storm’ if you will. It will inflte the price of everything that is transported (which means EVERYTHING). You have already seen the effect from that at the grocery store. That policy [...]

What about the atoms in natural gas makes it less dense than petroleum? I know that they are both a form of natural gas. This is only a theory of mine, but is petroleum more dense than natural gas because it is a hydrocarbon?

I know there are to many options and factors to consider when it comes to which boiler to choose for the house, but i just need an idea. for a new natural gas boiler to heat an 1800 sq ft house is this like a 5K range or like a 10K range?

my father was an electrical engineer for many years, and then eventually, now he runs a commercial real estate business that my grandfather started in new york city. now my dad has leased a particular section of our second home’s property (256 acres) to a drilling and timber company. they basically drill for natural gas/oil [...]

I have a friend who works as a broker of crude oil and natural gas. It has been interesting listen to him tell mw about the market, so I wanted to keep in touch with the prices etc. and I am unable to find it on Yahoo!finance.

Iran lies upon one of the largest oil deposits in the entire world, correct? They say that they do not have the oil refining capacity to power their nation with oil. So… They decide to take the path of nuclear power.
Is it cheaper for them to research and create nuclear [...]
