Economic researcher quotes
" A more relevant description would be a plateau in production capacity that might be reached in the fourth or fifth decade of this century. "

Daniel Yergin
" A premium in the oil price of somewhere between 10 to 15 dollars a barrel reflects this heightened anxiety. "

Daniel Yergin

Daniel Yergin
" I think the producers, for the most part, don't want to see prices skyrocket because that will only create problems for them down the road and would also be a, you know, would be a very serious shock for a world economy that can't afford serious shocks right now. "

Daniel Yergin
" If a war started, the oil price probably would go up, as you said, maybe $5, $6 a barrel until you saw other oil from the extra supplies that are available elsewhere coming into the world, into the market. "

Daniel Yergin
" In a couple of years, the Chinese will be seen as regular participants in international industry. Their companies have to report to shareholders as well as to the Chinese authorities. They need to make money, they have to be efficient. "

Daniel Yergin
" It's extraordinary how inventive one can be with ethanol right now. "

Daniel Yergin
" Nobody thinks that oil supply is infinite, but the point is: The sky is not falling. "
