The Hidden Carbon Cost of Iran Deal Oil

from Energy Economics with Fexingo: Oil Prices, Renewables, and the Cost of Power · host Fexingo

Oil crashed 10 percent this week on the Iran deal announcement. But Lucas and Luna unpack the hidden carbon cost that the market is ignoring: how much new supply actually hits the market, what it means for OPEC+ unity, and why the quality of Iranian crude matters for global emissions. They walk through the numbers: 1.3 million barrels per day of potential Iranian exports, the sulfur content difference versus existing OPEC supply, and why the Biden-era emissions rules make this a compliance risk for U.S. refiners. The episode also explores the structural problem that no one in the headlines is talking about: the carbon cost of bringing a shuttered oil field back online. Plus, a brief look at how SpaceX's record IPO signals a shift in retail investor appetite for non-carbon assets. #IranDeal #OilPrices #CrudeOil #CarbonCost #OPEC #Emissions #Refining #ESG #EnergyTransition #WTI #Brent #SpaceX #IPO #RetailInvestors #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EnergyEconomics Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
