S just reaped an extra $1 billion from oil refining in 3 months as gas prices at the pump skyrocketed (msn.com)
Joey B correctly naming the culprit.

French energy executives, including the chief executive of Total, one of the world’s largest oil companies, recently sent an open letter for the French people to “collectively take action on energy demand by reducing our consumption.”
Europe depends on natural gas especially for much of its heat and electricity that — although this is likely changing — greatly comes from Russia. The chief executive officer of S , which is based in London, said earlier this week that a “turbulent period in the world energy market is coming as Europe tries to replace natural gas that will likely be cut off from Russia.”
In other words, one way to lower energy prices and aid in the Ukraine war effort is to slow demand. Conservation can come in a variety of forms: driving less, lower temperatures in buildings in the winter, carpooling, using public transportation, replacing gas furnaces or working from home. In other words, asking consumers — who have been putting incredible strain on energy resources through surging demand — to use less.
This whole argument is bull . I get that many are wanting to crush BigOil because of current perceived profit margins. They aren't gouging anymore than BigTech or BigPharma. Or BigAg or BigAnything.
Good for S
If you don't like it buy an EV
thanks for admitting greedy companies are driving inflation too
S also lost 5 billion leaving Russia. Greedy bas s.
America will make up the difference... part of the calculation...
When you are that big of a corporation a billion one way or another is not that big of a deal. S has also invested a lot more than a billion in renewables.
Yep, plus they know where their bread gets buttered in the long run
"Or take the bus"
"Eat lentiles"
Already have.
Likewise if you don't like the price of gas STFU and quit fabrication it's Joes fault.
Suck S and swallow, keep us out of it.
Gotheeeeeeeem
I’ve never pretended otherwise.
Top 3 people in our government can't form cogent sentences. Two because they are senile; and the other is just a poorly programmed word salad chat bot.
At least no mean tweets.
I'll give you communication is not much of an upgrade from the previous administration...
Calculated because they knew Pootin would have stolen way more then that from S ?
