How long would it take for Canada or ramp up and replace Russian oil? It seems the only way to reduce the price of oil is to increase supply.

You're high. By about 599,350,000 barrels per day.

Agreed. Too many zeroes. The point remains. Why not buy from Canada instead?

Biden "Shot himself in the foot" when he cancelled our half built KXL pipeline. It would have given dem Americans 700,000 barrels per day of lowest cost oil in the world. (WCS) Even now it was priced below $100/bbl yesterday.
Then a couple more pumping stations it could have produced a million barrels per day.

Hopefully this results in the end of Biden, and a change to a more oil friendly US government, in the next election. Then perhaps the pipeline will get finished .

TC has said the Keystone will not proceed.

https://boereport.com/2022/03/08/can...eline-project/

TC Energy Corp said on Tuesday its Keystone XL (KXL) pipeline project to carry Canadian oil to U.S. refineries will not be revived, even as politicians on both sides of the border call for its resurrection to help replace Russian oil imports to North America.

The United States on Tuesday banned Russian oil imports in retaliation to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine, a decision that is expected to worsen disruptions in the global energy market.

“The Keystone XL Pipeline Project was terminated and will not proceed,” a TC Energy spokesman said in an email.

Here's hoping.

Sounds like Shell is going to start punching holes like crazy up in BC, they have a big commitment to CGL and they havent done much the last few years.

US oil imports (above what the produce themselves) is roughly 60% Canadian, 10% Mexican, 10% Saudi, 10% South America, 10% Russia.

The Democrats refuse to open up US production or to increase supply from Canada but are asking Iran, Saudi, Iraq, Venezuela to supply the shortage. How that makes sense is beyond me.

Oil falling today. Probably on US plans to get Iranian oil and Venezuelan oil back on.

Saudi’s and UAE said they aren’t bumping production.

That is why they kept Groundbirch when they sold off pretty much everything else.

Not going to happen fast. The BRFN decision has everything up here under restrictions. Going to be a long time before anything gets punched in the ground unless it is already either approved prior to the court case or they are working on already established pads and have all the facilities in place and there is no disturbance.

The BRFN decision has made things different up here, especially our hunting.....

Cheers

That’s all being sorted. Lots of rigs in BRFN territory right now, and our clients got new permits to keep going all year.

Petronas is firing up a 3rd rig and should keep one of our crews up here all 2023

TO me this is more of a "F you" announcement than a business decision. Once everyone comes begging and pleading they will go ahead with it.

To the US Canada it’s a unlimited checking account when it come to oil. Us don’t need to open up their oil reserve , thats their rrsp/ saving account . As for the rest 10% are small misc expense account/giftcards .

Yup, get the federals on either side to pony up then you know it will go through. No way are they risking tons of investment for things to calm down in a year and then the plug gets pulled again

The U.S. will have the oil reserves when they take Canada for the freshwater in 50-100 years.
