Courtesy of Powerswitch I note that Chris Skrebowski has updated his Megaprojects projections. Unfortunately I have to give my third lecture on Peak Oil in the last few weeks, tonight, and so won't be able to immediately digest it. But it is certainly worth a look. I wonder if he has included the new Kuwaiti plans to add 500,000 bd by the end of the decade?
He notes that his numbers and CERA's (or Yergin's for those not sure what I am talking about) roughly match, but he criticises them for not considering slippage or depletion fully. He has lowered the limit for inclusion, and seems to have got the ones that I had noted were missing in the earlier list. And yes Kuwait is included as possible, but with the recognition of the difficulties that will have to be negotiated - actually that potential project list seems to have grown a bit. Yes this is definitely a resource worth some considerable time for analysis - enjoy.
