Glencore will launch a secondary listing in Australia in the latest blow to London’s ailing stock market as miners continue to eye opportunities away from the UK. The mining and trading juggernaut, which is among the largest companies on the FTSE 100 boasting a market cap of £64.4bn, is pursuing the listing following its group’s long-standing complaint that its shares are undervalued and there is too little liquidity in London. Chief executive Gary Nagle said the listing would “broaden our investor base and enhance trading…

Russia increased oil production in July as stronger exports and recovering refinery runs gave producers somewhere to put more barrels. Crude oil and condensate output rose by roughly 100,000 barrels per day from June to more than 9 million bpd, two industry sources told Reuters on Thursday. Oil and fuel sales remain critical to Russia’s budget, giving Moscow every reason to keep production flowing despite sanctions and repeated attacks on its energy infrastructure. OPEC estimates for Russian production came in at 8.928 million bpd in June,…

Mexico has ruled out fracking in a key shale basin, drawing a line through a resource-rich area even as the country looks for ways to cut its dependence on U.S. natural gas. President Claudia Sheinbaum said hydraulic fracturing will not be allowed in the Tampico-Misantla basin beneath Veracruz and Tamaulipas. The government cited the basin’s dense population, indigenous communities and freshwater reserves. Sheinbaum ordered a panel to examine whether unconventional gas could help reduce imports from the United States. Mexico buys more than…

BP’s Bumerangue discovery is more than another giant Brazilian oil find: it could become the project that keeps both BP’s upstream portfolio and Brazil’s production boom alive well into the 2030s. With an estimated 2.5 billion barrels potentially recoverable and peak output that could reach 600,000 b/d, the ultra-deepwater development is large enough to offset declining production from BP’s existing assets and arrive just as Brazil’s current pre-salt giants begin moving off plateau. Yet its promise comes with a formidable…

The cut lands as Iran says an agreement with Oman on a shipping route through Hormuz is in its final stages. Brent crude has dropped to around $80 per barrel, down roughly 20% in two weeks, as traders bet that more Persian Gulf…

With the recent closure of the Strait of Hormuz, many expected oil prices to spike and stay high. Instead, they have barely budged. The latest spike in prices is a mini spike. If these oil prices were adjusted for inflation, the spikes in the past would appear even higher. Figure 1. Weekly average oil prices for West Texas Intermediate oil in a chart provided by EIA, with Iran conflict price spike circled. This is not a new problem. Looking at energy data going back to 1820, low demand (affordability) has repeatedly produced financial crashes,…
