MineralsSecond Exploration License Awarded in Saudi Arabia
On 5 December 2014, KEFI received confirmation that the 95km2 Hawiah Exploration Licence ("Hawiah EL") had been granted to KEFI's partner, Abdul Rahman Saad Al-Rashid & Sons Company Limited ("ARTAR"), on behalf of the KEFI-operated Gold and Minerals Joint Venture Company ("G&M").

Global Oil MarketsOil Producers: Saudi Arabia Knows Exactly What Must Be Done
By keeping its current levels of production, Saudi Arabia is also telling the world that the responsibility of putting brakes on sliding oil prices must be shared by both, the U.S. and Saudi Arabia. This is in contrast of the long-established, and perhaps obsolete, view that only Saudi Arabia, or the larger OPEC for that matter, is in a position to command meaningful influence on crude prices.

U.S. Congress and IranU.S. lawmakers pausing on Iran sanctions over nuclear talks
But many lawmakers seem to be having second thoughts about their vows to immediately hit Iran with new economic penalties if Tehran's negotiators didn't agree to curb the nation's controversial nuclear program in negotiations that reached a one-year deadline last week.

Global Oil MarketsThe new economics of oil: Sheikhs vs. Shale
So the economics of oil have changed. The market will still be subject to political shocks: war in the Middle East or the overdue implosion of Vladimir Putin’s kleptocracy would send the price soaring. But, absent such an event, the oil price should be less vulnerable to shocks or manipulation. Even if the 3m extra b/d that the United States now pumps out is a tiny fraction of the 90m the world consumes, America’s shale is a genuine rival to Saudi Arabia as the world’s marginal producer. That should reduce the volatility not just of the oil price but also of the world economy. Oil and finance have proved themselves the only two industries able to tip the world into recession.
