"The situation is catastrophic": oil companies comment on prices for "black gold"

58

Recently, Russian billionaire Leonid Fedun (a fortune of $ 8,7 billion), vice president of PJSC LUKOIL, a major shareholder and former chairman of the board of directors of this company, predictedthat Russia's losses due to the severance of the OPEC + transaction due to the 2019-nCov coronavirus infection (COVID-19) will amount to $ 100-150 million per day. And so, when the price of oil on the world market fell below $ 25 per barrel, Fedun called the situation catastrophic.

In an interview with the agency RBC Fedun recalled about meetingpreviously conducted by Russian President Vladimir Putin right at the terminal of the Vnukovo airport before flying to Pskov. It was dedicated to the coronavirus, but it was attended by the leaders of Russian oil companies.



Yes, now the coronavirus has hit the economy. But the oil shock that occurred (OPEC + deal break), it gives a price approximately, according to our estimates, from $ 20 to $ 25 from the existing price

- says Fedun.

In his opinion, if the OPEC + deal were preserved, then a barrel of oil would now be worth around $ 50. At the same time, Fedun emphasized that at the mentioned meeting at the airport, "no idea of ​​withdrawing from the transaction was discussed."

Although I know that certain state-owned companies actively lobbied for her (idea). Even those who lobbied, could not imagine in a nightmare that they would sell oil at $ 25

- said Fedun.

Fedun is convinced that Russia and Saudi Arabia will be in the worst position due to the severance of the OPEC + agreement. After all, these countries have announced their intention to increase oil production when its price in the market falls.

And then the question of their economic opportunities, reserves and so on, that is, it will be a war of attrition, from which the United States will benefit

- sure Fedun.

Fedun noted that the United States consumes a huge amount of oil and there is a direct dependence of fuel prices on the cost of raw materials. According to experts of PJSC LUKOIL, due to low oil prices, the incomes of the US population will grow by 6%. Moreover, in Russia, due to the peculiarities of the tax system, even with a drop in oil prices by half, the cost of fuel will not decrease.

The population of (Russia) does not suffer from price increases, but receives nothing from its fall. And the ruble exchange rate, unfortunately, will fall; there are no clear reasons for it not to fall further. Therefore, most likely, real incomes (of Russians) will fall

- warned Fedun.

In addition, Fedun affected shale mining in the United States. According to him, what is happening "will not kill, but severely injure" this industry in the USA, dropping it 6-7 years ago. As for Russia, if Moscow and the OPEC countries again do not agree and oil prices on the world market do not rise above $ 35 per barrel, then from 2022-2023, production in Russia will begin to decline.

It should be added that on March 18, 2020, Russian Urals oil for delivery to North-West Europe fell to $ 18,64 per barrel.

      Crowned. If in 2014 the share of oil and gas revenues in the GDP of the Russian Federation amounted to more than 50%, then the 2020 state budget was laid out at the rate of 40% of oil and gas revenues. In fact, there will be no more than 30-35% due to lower energy prices.

        You have strange ideas about success. The USSR had no more than 10% of budget revenues, while they said that he was sitting on an oil and gas needle and one of the reasons for the collapse was a fall in oil prices.

        This means that the budget will not receive 5-10%. In fact, even more, the multiplicative effect so that it affects the entire economy.
        Or was it sarcasm?

          The share of oil and gas in the budget of the USSR reached a peak of 20%, but the share of income from alcoholic beverages in the budget of the USSR reached 50% in other years, which is not good.
          For comparison: in the Russian Federation the share of revenues from oil and gas is twice as high as in the USSR, but the share of "drunken" money has dropped to less than 4%.
          Draw your own conclusions, which of the budgets is best for the country, Soviet or Russian.
          In my opinion, replenishing the budget by soldering the population is worse than by oil and gas.

          You are not up to date. The budget will receive everything in full from the NWF and the Stabilization Fund, where as much as 670 billion evergreens have accumulated. Given the cheaper ruble, we will have enough of these funds for ten years, but after a couple of years, IMHO, energy prices will return to normal values ​​and we will begin to replenish the capsules again.
          So there’s absolutely nothing to panic about.

            You are probably an adult, and believe in all sorts of tales. The budget of the USSR was approximately 400 billion rubles, which means 200 came from vodka. The price of the bottle is 4 rubles. We get 50 billion bottles. We divide by 270 million people the country's population. We get 185 bottles per year per person (including women, the elderly and children). This is 90 liters per person per year. Each resident of the USSR had to swell in umatine every other day.

            This song was sung both in 2008 and in 2014. Enough for 2 years. There is no stabilization fund, now the NWF is 123 billion dollars, where did you get 670?

              According to the USSR Ministry of Finance, the 1981 budget was 320,64 billion rubles. A bottle of vodka then cost an average of about six rubles. Then it turns out 13,5 liters of alcohol per person. In Lithuania or Moldova now more plump. It should be noted that there were more expensive drinks, cognac, brandy, calvados. Siberian vodka, for example, cost 7 rubles. What part of the alcohol products was used for technical and medical needs.

                  Everything is clear with you. You do not see the difference between export earnings and income from the oil and gas industry.

                  If we consider a bottle of forty degrees at 10 rubles, then it comes out 20 liters of vodka per year, or 40 bottles per year. 55 grams of vodka per person per day. Easily.

                  You are not in the subject. Short. The Central Bank does not need to sell gold reserves. It is enough to create additional payment instruments in conjunction with it, which in turn stimulates GDP growth. Gold reserves of the Russian Federation at the rate of 77 rubles / dollar. approximately 51 trillion rubles. An increase in the money supply (gradually, so as not to accelerate prices) by 50 trillion rubles will give a 10 percent increase in GDP. Thus, pouring this money into the economy through infrastructure projects, social programs, maintaining the solvency of the population, Russia also provides economic growth. Something like this.

                    That is, do you compare the income from the entire oil and gas industry (export and domestic consumption) of the USSR with the income of the Russian Federation from export of the oil and gas industry? Ah well done, it's five points.

                    How do you think? How much is the budget 320? 50% is 160. We divide 160 billion by 10 rubles, we get 16 billion bottles. Divide 270 million inhabitants of the USSR we get 50 bottles, this is 25 liters per person (including infants) per year. This is 70 ml per day per person (including infants) with a WHO norm of 30 for men. And this is without taking into account the cost and overhead costs, and that the population rarely bought alcohol at 10 rubles. To provide 160 billion a year, a family of four had to spend 2370 rubles on alcohol, almost 200 rubles a month. This is crazy.

                      The incomes of the USSR budget from the sale of alcohol in different years ranged from 30 to 50%. But even if you take the maximum as you started, then 25 liters of vodka in terms of pure alcohol is 10 liters per year. Take an interest in how much pure alcohol per year is drunk per person in Lithuania, in Moldova, in Germany, in France. In your opinion, so they already have super insanity.

      Come on?

      You recall how oil was worth 10 overseas thalers in the days of Reagan? It seems that they decided to replay the game, fantasy overseas is not held in high esteem, as long as they are sure that it works, they act according to one pattern.

        Come on? What share in the budget of revenues from oil and gas revenues was in the USSR and in the Russian Federation now?
        From memory, like, 10 and 50 percent, respectively.

          The share of oil and gas dollars in the budget is not the main thing, it could be formed from internal sources. More importantly, even wheat was bought for currency. The country could not feed itself stupidly. No oil - no bread. That is such independence. Even pipes for oil and gas pipelines were imported.

            I don’t own the numbers, but I suspect that even now a large proportion of the products are imported. And almost the entire food industry uses imported equipment and it needs imported spare parts.

            Pipes, it seems, have mastered (back in Soviet times), but various equipment for oil equipment is also imported and has no Russian counterparts. As in other industries, recall the Crimean turbines. Something I strongly doubt that the dependence of the Russian Federation is not that it is smaller than the USSR, but even at the same level.

              Russia is less dependent on exports for a century.

              I don’t own the numbers, but I suspect that even now a large proportion of the products are imported. And almost the entire food industry uses imported equipment and it needs imported spare parts.

              From memory, products are about 12%, with equipment much worse, machinery and equipment about 44% of imports. I don’t remember exactly how many of them are in the food industry, but the proportion is decent. That's just there is no urgent need for new purchases right now, there is enough available on the whole, the required one can be made from us. There is nothing fantastic in it; with the depreciation of the ruble, producing by oneself becomes more profitable than purchasing abroad.

              Pipes, it seems, have mastered (back in Soviet times), but various equipment for oil equipment is also imported and has no Russian counterparts. As in other industries, recall the Crimean turbines.

              By reference, you can read a little about the production of large diameter pipes:

              https://iv-g.livejournal.com/583375.html

              Technologies and equipment for the oil industry are doing more and more themselves, dependence is constantly decreasing. And this happens in all sectors, import substitution, although slower than wanted, but works. It's about the same as with carbon fiber for MS-21, they refused to sell, they started to produce it themselves. Turbines, by the way, can also be made by themselves, with Siemens recently terminated the contract, they will not do the plant in Russia.

              Something I strongly doubt that the dependence of the Russian Federation is not that it is smaller than the USSR, but even at the same level.

              Life goes forward, the country develops, and you stopped in the past, what is being done in the country passes by you unnoticed. The statement that I do not know, but I suspect that everything is bad and I doubt everything, sounds pretty funny. hi

                You didn’t notice how the world became global. The USA in the 80s was much more independent than now. Where did I say that everything is bad? Are you funny? Look around you. Do you see many things made in Russia? You write on an imported smartphone or computer, probably drive an imported car, watch an imported TV, cook food on an imported stove and keep it in an imported refrigerator, put on imported clothes and swallow imported tablets, and at the same time talk about the degree of independence of the Russian Federation. In my childhood, from the imported one there was only the Yugoslav wall, chewing gum and Cuban canned pineapples. Import substitution means that you will buy exactly the same thing of worse quality, but more expensive. Have you been to modern manufacturing? On those that I was, Russian equipment is missing from the word at all. It probably is somewhere, but its share is small. Wherever they tried to introduce autocracy, it ended badly. Why should modern Russia be the exception?

                  You will buy a washing machine or refrigerator, see where they are made, on many only import names. Which, however, applies to everything else, except that smartphones with computers are all from China.

                  In my childhood, from the imported one there was only the Yugoslav wall, chewing gum and Cuban canned pineapples.

                  We dragged gum from Bulgaria, but Cuban only had sugar.

                  Import substitution means that you will buy exactly the same thing of worse quality, but more expensive.

                  Not a fact.

                  Have you been to modern manufacturing? On those that I was, Russian equipment is missing from the word at all. It, for sure, is somewhere, but its share is small.

                  Not news, moreover, in agriculture there is a great dependence on the seed stock, breeding must be dealt with and pedigree farms developed.

                  Wherever they tried to introduce autocracy, it ended badly. Why should modern Russia be the exception?

                  And who is talking about authorship? Even North Korea has imports. I am talking about critical dependence on imports. This is when they blocked the sale of products and nibble the bark on the trees. Nothing of the kind threatens us. If you notice, all sanctions and restrictions on trade do not lead to anything. We do not have such a dependency.
                  Production must be developed at home, but certain conditions are necessary for this. China did not become a world factory because the party members at the next congress decided and did so. The transfer of production should be profitable. At a high exchange rate, transferring production to the country is unprofitable; at the request of the country's leadership, no one will do this. Stupidly, because in Vietnam or China, production is cheaper and it is established. And there are a lot of clever people who believe that if, for example, Italians produce equipment for the food industry, then we just want to want the head of enterprises to run around the barn like Lukashenko, and then we will do better, cheaper, the whole world will start it right away buy from us, and even the salary will automatically be, as in Europe.

                        Sovereignty is the ability of the national elite to make the decisions that it wants, without unacceptable damage to itself and its country.

                        For me, nothing is critical at all, even if there were 20 percent of imported grain in bread, I would not see a problem. I see a problem in the fact that due to the strong dependence of the Russian Federation on oil and gas exports, I have become poorer over the past couple of weeks.

If the US has a growing economy, this does not mean that the reason for the sanction. And in general, do you think that the goal of the sanctions was to lower the growth of the economy? As far as I remember, the requirements were put forward completely different.
                        As for Germany

                        Everything is relative. Why do you want Russia to keep up with the West? So you think that the modest growth of the Russian economy is not connected with sanctions, but the pure incompetence of the Russian leadership.

                        I understand correctly, only grain is a critical supply?

                        No, you misunderstand. Keyword here critical. Imagine that in 1985, the United States and Canada announced sanctions and cut off grain supplies. And that’s all. We begin to swallow the bark from the trees. There is no bread without wheat. Without corn, cattle dies.
                        To stop the delivery of the goods you listed is either impossible to stop at the same time, or the cessation of their supply will not lead to disastrous consequences. Do you consider milk dependence critical? How can this be organized? By decision of Brussels or Washington? Tell Lukashenko that he should pour milk into the river, the main market for him is Russia. I already spoke about uranium, now it’s practically an inexhaustible supply, fuel is reused. Etc.

                        RBC publishing house, of course, authoritative (by the way, thanks for confirming my words about the rise in price of goods due to import substitution), but it says 37.

                        "The share of imports of certain goods in their commodity resources"

                        I did not find the link where you saw the "share of imports of goods in their commodity resources", I had to search on my own, on the same site I went to the section "Indicators characterizing import substitution in Russia", there is a table "Balance of resources and use of milk and dairy products across the Russian Federation ". Data from there:

                        Production 79,5%, imports 16,2%, another 4,3% stock.

                        (as far as I understand, this is rolling over from last year).

                        Import 16,2% of the data are quite comparable with the data provided by RBC - 84% of its own production.

                        How 37% can be derived from these figures, I do not understand. request As for the "authoritative edition", I do not fully share your opinion. It was just the first link that came across with reliable statistics, nothing more.

                        Yes, the richest deposits remained in Kazakhstan. Like uranium.

                        For me, nothing is critical at all, even if there were 20 percent of imported grain in bread, I would not see a problem.

                        You do not quite understand the meaning of the concept critical. If sanctions were introduced in 1985, you would not have 20% of imported grain, but 50% of spruce sawdust in a loaf.

                        I see a problem in the fact that due to the strong dependence of the Russian Federation on oil and gas exports, I have become poorer over the past couple of weeks.

                        With all due respect, it is not so important for the rest of the world how much richer or poorer you personally have become. In other words. I personally, and, I believe, the vast majority of those around me, are deeply purple. what is your condition. If you are so critically dependent on fluctuations in the ruble exchange rate, can you change your country of residence? I see no other way to help your grief. request

                        I completely agree with you, moreover, you cannot call a very smart person who dreams of creating an independent economy from the world.

                        I did not find information on the link you provided that 90% of industrial equipment is imported. The import share is huge, but not 90%, in addition, the main reason is indicated there:

                        the domestic market of the Russian Federation does not provide sufficient demand. Dependence on imports remains, since it is easier to buy abroad in the right amount than to produce “at the warehouse”.

                        Dependence is not critical, if necessary, they can do it all themselves, but according to economic views it is cheaper to purchase abroad.

                        Everything is relative.

                        Gold words. good Let's compare. Yes

                        So you think that the modest growth of the Russian economy is not connected with sanctions, but the pure incompetence of the Russian leadership.

                        You could come to such a conclusion only because of your personal incompetence, I would even say more, but the site’s policy does not allow it.

                        And as for Germany

                        Germany's average annual growth over five years 1,9%
                        Five-year average annual growth of Russia 0,5%

                        So let's compare. Are we talking about the impact of sanctions on the Russian economy and critical dependence? Then it is wise to consider this data in more detail. Germany's total growth over 5 years is really higher. Let's look at the reasons. By years (2015-2019), this will look like this:
                        Germany + 1,7% + 1,9% + 2,2% + 1,4% + 0,7%
                        Russia -3,7% -0,6% + 1,6% + 2,3% + 1,2%
                        In 2014, after the imposition of sanctions, the economy sank, but withstood the blow, and although at a slow pace, it is growing. The impact of sanctions is not critical. Over the past two years, the growth rate is higher than that of Germany, and the sanctions do not have such a negative impact on it. The imposition of sanctions was conditioned by political demands, as a result they received "ears from a dead donkey."
                        For 5 years they have not achieved any political concessions or strangulation of the economy.
                        All your statements to the contrary have no real basis and are very similar to the desire to kiss the shoes of a foreign owner. Yes

    What is happening is the result of a prolonged negative selection of the ruling class and the degradation of the population of the Russian Federation. Ibn Khaldun wrote well about such degrading societies:

    The ruling class, which has reached a complete monopoly of power, grows over time and increases its needs, which reduces its ability to adequately respond to the depletion of public resources, the decline in economic activity, the impoverishment and degradation of the population, and the loss of power.

    It is not surprising that those who came off the coils of their own greatness, illiterate people from the gateway, having walked, put their country in a catastrophic situation. There are simply no others there. One can get out of the gateway physically, it is much more difficult to pull the gateway out of oneself.
