Russia becomes world's biggest oil producer - 09 Sept 09

[YUSKHAN]

Russia and Saudi Arabia should united against zionist america

[xDead27Eyex]

Its okay we got Nigeria, Venezuela, Iraq, Canada, and of course the Arabs.

[zakaslam1]

Anybody who thinks russia oil is in decline , then think agian January 2011 russian oil production 10.2 million barrels per day , all russia needs to do now is make IRAN there isreal , thus preventing the us from taking over irainian oil and gas to counter the russian

[istinatruth]

простым россиянам от этого ни холодно, ни жарко не становится!

[smithyboi1000]

russia basically her ecomony relies on resources for money so i think the countrie should sought her self out

[YoungHistorian101]

great... Russia is going to control the oil market...... the end of the world is coming even closer...

[Plutonwolf]

Oil and Nat Gas arent the only natural resources Russia has the edge on. They have, for instance, more proven platinum reserves than the rest of the world combined.

[wslx0195]

However, not saying platinum is not valuable, but large reserves are a loss if there is not enough demand. I'm speaking for any resource in general.

[jamesskull2000]

y do u all think the US government isnt worried about OPEC and russia oil bcos the department of energy is being working on a new type of energy source. when the project is done we wont give a fuck about oil anymore. the project is goin on in a national lab in California. And we got the largest coal reserves in the world

[strongbadassman]

you are a fucking moron, what does having the largest coal reserves got to do with building new types of energy source?

[krum369]

Good for Russia, this should give a huge advantage to them, even thou im American i feel safer knowing that a Non-western or Allie of the west is getting the oil, especially Russia.

[Nickk361]

While you are congratulating the Russians keep in mind what they did to Europe when they did not follow Russia's political demands.

[kukenduken]

What? Do you mean Ukraine?

[smithyboi1000]

russia sells oil and natural gas to europe

[Ma3Hu1]

@krum369

And I'm Russian and I feel exactly the opposite lol. See, Russia has one-sixth of the earth's land surface and the most oil, and any resources you wish etc., but it's still such a messed up country in every sense. Russia could do so much better, and it had so many chances to, and still nothing seems to work there but the perfectly staged political government dramas.

[xDead27Eyex]

@krum369 Its okay we got the Arabs.

[bigc028282]

Its funny how aljezeera channel spams someone saying septmber eleven was an insideways job. Very funny. Yes I know, spelling. That's see how long it stays up with this spelling. You would think that they would not want the blame on their race.?

[chitownsmokey]

russia always had oil.....even Alaska had tons of oil, and diamonds in it when russia sold it to US quite some time ago but you see they didnt know at the time and wanted to buy it back but US wouldnt sell it back, why wud they? .. so many resources...but this doesnt surprise me.... not for long though.. ill tell u that much

[jojo1ukuk]

ww3 here it comes usa and europe will start attacking russia and china, u know russia will not give u oil and gas resources to western idiots.

[apfelknecht]

i bet saudi arabia can easy increase their oil production. i think this is more a customer problem: russia can sell more because the other states are muslim states.

[bigc028282]

And so is this economic collapse of the dollar!

[SforzandoFilms]

I doubt that they'll give any of that oil to America. Nobody really likes America that much anymore.

[MusaJames]

When it comes to money no one cares.

[SforzandoFilms]

That is true.

[VannyARTS]

Maybe not to the USA ,,, But Russia already have business with El Salvador.

[SforzandoFilms]

That's interesting. One thing is for sure: being at the top in the oil industry, Russia is going to have the advantage in today's economy. Once the oil fields in Saudi Arabia dries up, however, Russia might lose its advantage. But there's no telling when that will happen.

[SforzandoFilms]

That was a typo. I meant to say that once Russia's oil fields dry up, they might lose the advantage.

[VannyARTS]

I'm not into politics and I'm not Russian,,,But I see Russia playing a Chest board game alone with the USA. The USA builds and takes over countries around Russia,and Russia is building forces in Central & South America.Countries like El Salvador,Venezuela & Colombia. These used to depend on the USA not no more. So. Russia might not be big in oil in the future, but it's building a solid chain and body. The BIG MACHINE of Russia might have loss its body, but not its head if you know what I mean.

[dan020350]

go buy the Russian currency, if Russia is going to be biggest oil producer :)

[MsDameJames]

Good to know.

[RoyalDemonforChrist]

will they give some oil to america? america is in need. a friend in need is a friend indeed. yes?

[rjanis123]

Does this mean I'll soon have to replace the Jack Daniel's in my cupboard with Stolllies?

[bigc028282]

Considering that the dollar went from gold/silver, to an oil standard, I wonder how this will impact the dollar. China has now changed their derivative policy as well. The dollar is at about a 60% buying power on the world market. Buy gold and silver with your paper money.

We need more brain dead tv shows, and media! :)

[rjanis123]

This my friend just might be the "new cold war"

and if that's the case, I think we Americans are losing badly .. and ya wanna know what's sad?

to find unbiased news of the world an American has to seek out sources from abroad..

I would be very surprised to see either fox or MSNBC cover this.

[Nickk361]

No buy American, if you can still find it.

[LordLebu]

Good news
