    Generally, rich countries have higher gas prices but US is a notable exception.  According to Globalpetrolprices, US has relatively low gas prices.   US is in the middle range between highest priced Hong Kong (over 200% US) and lowest priced Venezuela (2% US).

    Compared to other countries, US gasoline is cheap because of low taxes.  According to Global petro prices earlier, US $4.61 per gallon, China $5.27, Canada $5.80 and UK $8.50.  Relatively, US has the cheapest gas in the world when adjusted for percentage of GDP per capita for 100 gallons.  US 0.67%, China 4.2%, Canada 1.13% and UK 1.8%.

    The climate bill has spooked big oil .

    The infrastructure package will reduce the need for petroleum by 25% over the next decade. The product is being replaced until oil refined fossil fuels will be needed as whale oil for lighting needs. 

    The worlds demand is also reducing. 

    Replaced by renewables bio fuels and increase of recycling the oil industry will respond they must bring the price to 3.00 a gallon at the pump or face the reality that solar wind and biofuels become less costly to utilize than oil.

    Over time fuel stations will include charging stations for electric cars. 

    Oil fired burners will retrofit to produce electricity with methane and bio fiber.

    The entire industry is slowly circling the drain....

    Saudi Arabia started pushing for green energy projects to allow more oil for export.

    Saudi Arabia is on track to add 6.2 GW of installed wind energy capacity over the next 10 years, according to a report issued in April by research and financial consultancy Wood Mackenzie.

    As part of the rollout, which would account for 46% of all wind projects in the Middle East through to 2028, the report said it expects the Renewable Energy Project Development Office (REPDO) to tender 850 MW of wind energy projects this year, with the facilities scheduled to come on-line by 2022.

    It is also expected that the authorities will increase local content requirements in the tender process, which could present investment and growth opportunities to domestic equipment and service providers.

    Much of the capital for future wind energy projects is tipped to come from the Public Investment Fund (PIF), the country’s sovereign wealth fund, though the report noted that to date the agency has little expertise in renewable energy development.

    In addition to bolstering wind energy, the government is investing in solar to broaden its generation base, and aims to have 58.7 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, 40 GW of which will be in solar.

    In January REPDO announced it would issue tenders for 11 projects with a combined solar capacity of 2.2 GW this year, including a 600-MW solar park in the province of Makkah. The park will form part of a larger 2.6-GW solar complex and will be tendered via REPDO. The remaining 2 GW produced in the complex will be developed directly by the PIF and its partners.

    The announcement comes after ground broke on the 300-MW Sakaka power station in November last year, the first solar project under the King Salman Renewable Energy Initiative, launched in 2016. Domestic company ACWA Power is overseeing construction of the SR1.2bn ($320m) independent power producer, which is expected to power 45,000 homes in Al Jouf when it comes on-line later this year.

    accelerated drive into renewable energy is part of the government’s broader plan to boost the economy by freeing up more hydrocarbons for export.

    The Geopolitics of Energy Project explores the intersection of energy, security, and international politics. The project, launched in 2011, aims to improve our understanding of how energy demand and supply shape international politics – and vice versa. It also endeavors to inform policymakers and students about major challenges to global energy security and, where possible, to propose new ways of thinking about and addressing these issues. The project focuses both on conventional and alternative energies, as both will influence and be influenced by geopolitical realities.

    The project begins from the premise that energy has long shaped the international system, determining great powers, alliances, and outcomes of wars. Coal-rich countries were the first to industrialize in the 1800s; the shift to oil from coal over the next century brought with it a rise in the strategic importance of the Middle East. Similarly, decisions made about energy today will influence what the world looks like tomorrow, just as the political and security events of today – be it the Arab Spring or the devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan – will shape energy realities.

    Harvard's Geopolitics of Energy Project posits that the coming decades will be characterized by dual impulses in the energy realm. Despite the desire to move away from fossil fuels, oil and gas will remain dominant in the global energy mix – and the energy world will continue to be consumed by the need to find oil and gas to meet growing global demand. Politics and security will be intimately interwoven in this quest. At the same, climate and security pressures are real and, over time, technology and policy will enable the world to move away from fossil fuels to more sustainable and clean energy sources. As has been the case throughout the course of history, this shift in the global energy mix will bring with it major political and security changes. Together, these two factors – the drive to find oil and gas and the shift toward alternative energies – will be important determinants of the world in which we live.

    History shows us how the geopolitics of energy have evolved as new discoveries were made and institutional, economic and technological changes occurred. Today, policymakers, business people, and scholars face a number of new realities in assessing the energy system:

    Yes 32 states avg price is below 4.00 a gallon. 

    Gas must lower as demand lowers after the labor day/ hurricane .

    The bottom sits at about 2.50 a gallon nation wide.

    There is a glut of product in holding tanks this

    summer grade must be utilized before the large tanks can be filled with winter grade.

    Gas should continue to be reduced until winter heating season needs demand the oil for fuel oil refinements.

    Big oil priced themselves out of the market.

    The switch to renewables is accelerating.

    We have finally gotten some relief at the pump.

    - Patrick De Haan

    Gas prices in most parts of the US started the year around $3 a gallon, but began to climb a couple of months later due to rebounding seasonal demand and Russia's war on Ukraine. Soon, prices reached $4, with some states even seeing prices cross $5 per gallon, as Americans eagerly hit the road for summer trips.

    But prices cooled back down earlier this month.
    Looking ahead, the boom-and-bust cycle of oil will continue, with motorists getting dizzy from the price movements. When it comes to gasoline prices, expect the national average to remain in the upper $3 per gallon range
