I think this may be a bit more strategic. The saudis are selling oil
at lower than their production cost and I doubt it is out of the
kindness in their heart.

Probably using the same tactic the cartels pulled in the 80s to bust
their world competitors, then raise it back


I doubt it is below their production cost. Their cost is very low. A lot
lower than our costs. They do not require pumps on the wells, and have 13"
casings. I think ours are 6". Lots of gas pressure forces out the oil.
