Gas Prices Predicted To Top $6.00 Per Gallon In 2009

Gas Prices Predicted To Top $6.00 Per Gallon In 2009Gas Prices Predicted To Top $6.00 Per Gallon In 2009Author: Jennifer StromsteenAs of the day of this writing, the national average price for gasoline is $3.55 per gallon in the US. When gas was under $1.00 the prediction was made by this author it would go to $3.00 per gallon. Here we are with gasoline priced well over $3.00 per gallon, and I am now convinced that the cost of gasoline will reach $6.00 per gallon in the United States at some point during 2009. There is not much that can be done to prevent that from happening. To understand why, we need to look at the factors that are the causes of the price rise. Basically there are three: supply, demand, and the value of the currency. Supply is near or at 100% of capacity. There is only so much oil that can be pumped out of the ground. The amount of crude oil that can be pumped daily out of the giant Cantarell oil field in Mexico is declining rapidly. After peaking at 3.82 million barrels per day in 2004, Mexico's total daily production is falling by as much as 8% per year. North Sea oil output peaked in 1999 at 2.91 million barrels per day. Daily production has since fallen to 1.81 million barrels per day. Similar reductions in daily output have occurred in the United States, Russia, Iran, Argentina, Peru, Columbia, Australia, Turkey, Libya, Egypt, South Africa, Spain, France, Algeria, Pakistan, Yemen, and a host of other countries. However, not all countries have reached peak.
