+1, Interesting story:
Ukraine-Russian war has lot's of subjects, here's one of them:

A friend had a ā‚¬multi-billion contract on his desk he was helping negotiate for the purchase of open sea methane refining platforms (made in Italy) to be shipped to the Golf of Mexico almost 4 years ago. According to their market research the Global Natural Gas market production was saturated with falling prices. New production was considered impossible to sell.
Contrary to all logic, US Based petroleum company says, "OK, ship us 60 platforms." and spends $BILLIONS on enough platforms to supply all of EUROPE that no one needed.

Couple years go by, Ukraine-Russian war.
The EU got 90-100% of it's natural gas from Russia runs through Germany, which was then shut off.

Now it's coming from the Golf of Mexico, just in time.
We could ask ourselves a couple of questions about who's running things.

About 15 years ago or so I sat in on a meeting with a client of mine that owned natural gas fields in Oklahoma, while I was meeting with him some hedge fund guys walked into his office like they owned it, introduced themselves, then brazenly laid out a whole plan on how they were going to gum up the works on every part of the natural gas food chain to drive natural gas prices up. Sure enough that winter natural gas prices went through the roof and Hugo Chavez was offering to donate Venezuelan natural gas to our people in the Northwest who were at risk of freezing to death because they couldnā€™t afford gas to heat their homes because of the high prices.
