The supply shock created by a surge in North American oil production will be as transformative to the world energy market over the next five years as was the rise of Chinese demand over the last 15, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in its annual Medium-Term Oil Market Report (MTOMR) released this week.
The IEA report states that the effects of continued growth in North American oil supply will cascade through the global oil market. "North America has set off a supply shock that is sending ripples throughout the world," said IEA Executive Director Maria van der Hoeven, who launched the report at the Platts Crude Oil Summit in London.
"The good news is that this is helping to ease a market that was relatively tight for several years," she added. "The technology that unlocked the bonanza in places like North Dakota can and will be applied elsewhere, potentially leading to a broad reassessment of reserves." Expanding North American oil supply is great news for U.S. heating oil customers, because a growing oil supply is the best protection against oil price increases.
Market fundamentals suggest a more comfortable global oil supply/demand balance in the near future, the report states. It forecasts North American supply to grow by 3.9 million barrels per day (mb/d) from 2012 to 2018. "World liquid production capacity is expected to grow by 8.4 mb/d — significantly faster than demand - which is projected to expand by 6.9 mb/d," the report states.

Schedule your 13-Point Spring Tune-Up Today!
With air conditioning season around the corner, you’ll need
your air conditioner working at its highest efficiency. Getting your air
conditioner serviced is the same principles as annual dental cleaning or
routine maintenance to a car.
Did you know that the build up of dirt on an air
conditioner’s indoor coil can dramatically reduce efficiency? Just .01 of an
inch of dirt is enough to decrease results by up to 5 percent. That’s why you
need annual maintenance on your air conditioning system! At Dominick Fuel we
can help examine your AC system and make sure it’s working at its best.
With A 13 Point
Tune-Up, Our Technicians Will:
1. Lubricate
& check all moving parts including bearings, blower motor, condenser fan
(and adjust belt, if applicable).
2. Evaluate
condition of air filters; replace with standard disposable fiberglass filters.
3. Check
evaporator coil.
4. Check
refrigerant charge; additional refrigerant requires an extra charge plus labor.
5. Test
"temperature drop" at return and supply air.
6. Install
gauges and check operating pressures.
7. Check
condensate to make sure draining at the time of visit to help protect against
overflow.
8. Tighten
and safety test all wires and connections.
9. Check
controls for proper operation.
10. Test
operation and condition of compressor contacts.
11. Inspect,
start and run capacitors and inspect relays for bulges, rust and leaks.
12. Check
outdoor condenser coil.
13. Inform
customer of equipment condition. Recommend A/C repairs when necessary.
During the warmer months, air conditioning can account for
up to 70 percent of your utility bill. By getting an air conditioning system
tune-up, you’re taking the steps necessary to avoid poor performance and costly
repairs. That’s a worthwhile investment!
To schedule your air
conditioning tune-up, please call us at 203-866-5836 or log
into your account. And don’t forget our 13-Point Spring Tune-Up is included in our
AC Maintenance Savings Plan and all our AC service plans.
