I have long thought that the entire environmental movement was/is facilitated and funded by oil-rich countries trying to weaken us both by cutting off our oil-producing capacity and sowing chaos in the country.
This is absolutely true. Fracking in the USA for oil/gas has a direct effect on what oil/supply/price has around the world. Petroleum from ND and West Texas competes directly with the same light sweet crude from Nigeria.
Just like Heavy Sulfur Crude from Alberta directly competes with the same heavy crude coming from Venezuela.
No different than the Methane coming out of Russia competes with Methane coming from Qatar, US or Australia. It just depends on how efficiently they can turn it to LPG then ship it around the world. In the case of Russia or the Stans whether there is a pipeline delivering it to western Europe.
IF that pipeline ceases to exist. Then their best alternative is buying LPG delivered to some port. I then becomes a function of the freight cost to get it there, the monetary exchange rate and tariffs/duties.
