Pugwash Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Here's your first correction: It's spelled ECONOMISTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 As i nearly finished my Master in energy economics you could sent it me too... but i coud help you only with the content... Are you writing the essay incorporation with Shell or the Venezuelan Oil company resp. think about getting an job in one of these companies? If so try to write the essay mainly from their point of view... Don't forget the point that oil will/could be compansated by other energies as the heating system will be changend from oil to gas, coal, woodpellets and so on... in a long term (5 or 10 years) if the prices are rising or extremly high... so the OPEC must be interested in oil-prices which aren't too high...

Dutchy Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Here's your first correction: It's spelled ECONOMISTS. It's not easy to type after pulling an all nighter. You would know about allnighters after being in Thailand ey? As i nearly finished my Master in energy economics you could sent it me too... but i coud help you only with the content...

Dear Thor! The essay is meant for university. I follow a diploma programme called the IB (International Baccalaureate). In said diploma I need 50 hours of community service (ophanage work and helping out at fundraisers such as fahion shows and sports days in order to raise money for those infected with the HIV virus, etc), 50 hours of Creativity (Photography Club, Movie Club) and 50 hours of action (hikes, soccer, etc). Apart from that I need to write an essay (up to 4000 words). As I plan on studying International Business starting next year I wanted to take a look at the bsuiness world, and as economics is closest to business in terms of my course selections at school, I decided on Economics. And since I live in Venezuela, it only made sense to write it on oil. In regards to your mentioning about coals, etc. I have indeed included this with a diagram, stating what can be extracted, how, and what is most efficient. It's VERY difficult to stay away from politics as the feud with Venezuela and America certainly has not disappeared. Thanks so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddhead Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I have a BS in ECON from Berkeley (Class of 90), and would be happy to read it. OK, so i am not that smart, nor that young (Eco major 1980 Stony Brook) but I will gladly look it over if you are interested in the views of a dumb old guy.
