The EU and UK’s Gas Forecasts Are Not an Energy Strategy

September 29, 2026 Clark Savage140

A forecast is not a plan. A storage target is not a molecule. And a press release about “diversified supply” does not fill a cavern in Bavaria when the cargo is sitting in the Pacific because Seoul or Dhaka paid more. As of late September 2026, the European Union is heading into the heating season […]

The official line since the energy crisis has been simple. Families and businesses are exposed because fossil-fuel prices are set internationally. After the latest Middle East shock, ministers said Britain had to “get off the fossil fuel rollercoaster” and that “when global gas prices spike, people here shouldn’t be picking up the tab.” Ofgem and […]

September 24, 2026September 24, 2026 Clark Savage458

The remark, given to Nikkei Asia in Tokyo on September 24, is the clearest signal yet that Riyadh no longer treats three outlets as enough insurance against a two-front maritime crisis. Nasser said engineering and feasibility work is already underway. He did not name destinations, capacities, or dates. He did say Aramco can restore interrupted […]

What a standalone gas division actually changes – Saudi Aramco Looking Ahead

September 23, 2026 Clark Savage412

On paper, this looks like an org chart. In practice, it is a financing and accountability decision. Gulf national oil companies have spent the last several years listing or monetizing everything except the core oil barrel. ADNOC listed pieces of gas, drilling, and retail. Aramco already listed SABIC and has raised billions against pipelines and […]
