<p class="Paragraph-sc-osiab4-0 ObituaryText___StyledParagraph-sc-12f7zd1-0 jodDEO jfjwAE">FINE <br/><br/>DR. DANIEL FINE <br/><br/>Dr. Daniel Fine unexpectantly passed away Monday, September 26, 2022, at Aventura Hospital, Aventura Florida. Dan Fine was a great American patriot. Our nation lost a real hero at 88. <br/><br/>Daniel Fine predicted the end of nations. He predicted the Fall of the Soviet Union in the cold war in his seminal work Resource War in 3-D. This was a major assessment in the raw materials sector of U.S. national security and foreign policy. He redefined the Cold War. In a meeting with William De Clerk, then President of South Africa, Dr. Fine predicted that apartheid would fall. Dr. Fine helped win as well from the Yeltsin Government the contract for the second largest copper mine in the world, Udokan. Three American Presidents got to know Dr. Fine, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, and Joe Biden. Through interviews, tours of MIT, and campaign stops. He knew President Reagan in briefings and many of his administrative offices." </p>

<p>"With the Department of Interior under the leadership of Interior secretary nominee Deb Haaland, the Biden Administration would open the way towards energy and climate. No longer would federal land and its uses be separate from social and cultural considerations of climate and its change.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">Change is not narrowly defined as “global warming.” It is set in such policy terms as “security.” </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">What have the California forest fires in common with the Texas polar freeze? </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">A pandemic-surviving population sees and fears “security” or systemic change in climate. It was also distressed that the price of San Juan natural gas increased from $2.00 to $100.00 overnight in reaction to the Texas grid power failure and ban on its natural gas production export to Mexico and other states.</p>

<br />
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">So far, President Biden is pursuing a strategy to remove carbon from oil and gas by limiting its production. This could remove 40% in transportation by cars and trucks</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">Not so easy as Bill Gates says. Yet the electric and hydrogen displacement of the combustion engine is folded into a minimum 1.6 trillion dollar infrastructure investment which changes all the spread sheets in business capital spending."</p>

<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">As this Administration puts values before transactions (Trump) to restore American leadership of globalization among European powers, it must recognize Europe on energy and climate: all renewable as opposed to petroleum in transportation technology in five or six years. By rules and laws from EU Government? Yes.</p>

<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The Biden Administration is here and the Republican Party is fractured — as I projected in my last column in these pages. Now the issue for the San Juan Basin and the Four Corners around it is the future of land which the national government owns and manages. </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">It collected revenues of nearly $10 billion per year before the Pandemic from oil leases which are worked privately in oil and liquids extraction. All this now is in a 60 day “freeze” as the Biden Administration installs new Interior Department Management.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The Interior Department should soon have a Secretary and a new and different bureaucratic team. The 60-day “freeze” allows for a transfer of power over 245 million surface acres of the United States. </p>

<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The holdovers from the Trump Administration in the Bureau of Land Management have been preempted from all authority.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">For 60 days, the Four Corners community and the Navajo Nation might begin to adjust to a new relationship to federal land. </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The Trump Administration, doubtless, is the final 19th century vision of the West and the use of this Land. It was part of the “Manifest Destiny” and settled through displacement by millions before and after the War Between the States.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">It is now to be managed consistent with its original people, as a characteristic of the Biden Administration</p>

<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The Navajo Nation's future has been changed by the pandemic. San Juan County can merge with security and equity in building a Four Corners defense, storage, manufacturing and transportation hub with a changed Window Rock government.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">And more. </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">Native American communities have survived across many centuries of discrimination, assaults on lives and culture and, lately, a pandemic. Now U.S. Rep. Deb Haaland, a member of the Pueblo of Laguna, is nominated by President Joe Biden for Secretary of the U.S. Department of the Interior to manage public lands and trust obligations to American Indian tribes and Alaska Natives."</p>

<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The San Juan Basin, the Four Corners and New Mexico at the end of the Year of Pandemic await the arrival of vaccines for the general public and voting in Georgia. The first is a matter of months and the second in a week. </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The Biden-Harris transition closes with the swearing-in ceremony and a new president over the Federal Republic of the United States. Georgia’s run-off Senate election decides the future of his Administration. It also determines the short and long-term future of the Republican Party.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">President Joe Biden will have no Republican buffer against his program of progressive political change if Georgia chooses the Democrats. </p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">The paper ballot enigma and Republican division over the electoral outcome for president as well as a 1,400 difference in the stimulus checks per the qualified between Republican Party (conservatives) and Democratic Party (progressives) are in play. Meanwhile President Donald Trump can offer himself now or in the future as having made and led a populist Republican Party. It would be surprising if Georgia does not elect two Democratic Party senators.</p>
<p class="gnt_ar_b_p">With that the Senate must vote on Interior Secretary-Designee Deb Haaland. If there is a status quo Senate or a Republican Party majority, she would still win and become Secretary of the Interior with control of the 94% of federal lands in and around the San Juan Basin, San Juan County and much of the Four Corners, as well as federal lands in the Permian Basin."</p>

<p>New Mexico’s oil and gas industry is teetering on a near-shutdown, slammed by plunging demand for oil and an unprecedented global market glut that’s slashed prices to 20-year lows.</p>
<p>New drilling in the Permian Basin in southeastern New Mexico is screeching to a halt, and many producers are starting to shut in existing wells to await better times. That, in turn, foreshadows a double whammy on the state budget, as government revenue tumbles from plummeting oil prices and forthcoming production declines.</p>
<p>“It’s not pretty down here,” said Raye Miller, president of oil company Regeneration Energy Corp. in Artesia. “Probably the most activity we’re seeing now is from folks moving rigs out of the oil fields and into storage yards.”</p>

<p>Although unemployment data is not yet available, State Rep. Larry Scott, R-Hobbs, said companies are slashing their payrolls.</p>
<p>“We’re seeing layoffs, salary reductions and equipment moving back to storage yards,” said Scott, a longtime oilman and owner of Lynx Petroleum in Hobbs. “I know of several companies that have announced substantial layoffs of 80 to 100 workers.”</p>
<p>One industry expert predicts a loss of more than 60% of New Mexico’s active oil rigs, which would translate to more than 2,000 layoffs.</p>
<p>Oil producers in New Mexico and elsewhere are hoping for some relief this week, because the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia and other oil-producing nations plan to meet Thursday to discuss potential, collective cutbacks in output to reduce world oversupply and lift prices.</p>

<p class="speakable-p-1 p-text">AZTEC — Two tweets sent by President Donald Trump on the morning of April 2 spurred optimism for an oil industry hit hard by a flood of oil from Saudi Arabia and Russia, driving down the price.</p>
<p class="speakable-p-2 p-text">But Dan Fine, an energy researcher and associate director of the New Mexico Center for Energy Policy at New Mexico Tech, said he is skeptical that the president has a deal.</p>
<p class="p-text">Four Corners Economic Development hosted a webinar April 2 during which Fine provided updates on current industry conditions and forecasts.</p>

<p class="p-text">Trump tweeted that he has spoken to the crown prince of Saudi Arabia as well as Russian President Vladimir Putin and expects those two countries will decrease oil output by 10 million barrels.

Major slowdown expected in U.S. shale oil production BY KEVIN ROBINSON-AVILA / JOURNAL STAFF WRITER Wednesday, December 11th, 2019

<p><i>Copyright © 2019 Albuquerque Journal</i></p>
<p>The shale-oil tsunami that has flooded New Mexico with a wave of petro dollars in recent years may be receding somewhat as U.S. production faces its first significant decline since the gushers began nearly eight years ago.Signs of trouble are showing up in major basins around the country, with a significant drop in drilling rig activity and sluggish growth this year compared with the spectacular bursts of production in recent years that has transformed the U.S. into the world’s No. 1 oil producer.</p>
<div class="p402_hide story-ad-wrap dfp-ad ad advertisement"><p>A new report released in November by global research and consulting firm IHS Markit says the U.S. is headed for a “major slowdown,” reflecting today’s moderate oil prices, investor reluctance to continue pumping huge sums into companies that have shown only modest returns on capital, and significant productivity declines in shale-oil fields.</p>
<p>That poses substantial challenges going forward.</p>
<p>But a prolonged bust is unlikely, and New Mexico may be less affected than other places. That’s because the Permian Basin in West Texas and southeastern New Mexico remains at the forefront of the shale revolution, thanks to its rich resources, low production costs and the huge gushers that flow from wells drilled there.</p>
<p>As a result, New Mexico is well-positioned to navigate through the current headwinds, said Raoul LeBlanc, IHS Markit’s vice president for North American unconventionals.</p>
<p>“The Permian has an inventory of highly productive wells yet to be drilled that will last many years,” LeBlanc told the Journal. “New Mexico is in a really good spot. It’s proven extremely productive compared with anywhere else.”</p>
<p>Many companies are cutting back on investments in less lucrative zones to refocus on their most productive assets. That bodes well for New Mexico’s side of the Permian, where operators can still tap into rich, productive pools of hydrocarbons at lower cost than in other places."</p>

<div><p><span> </span>SUMMARY</p>
<div>Increased energy trade has important economic and strategic significance for the United States and Mexico. Mexico’s energy-market reforms that opened access and improved natural gas trade between American producers and Mexican consumers have been beneficial for citizens in both countries. President López Obrador’s desire to return to energy nationalism threatens those gains. Both the U.S. and Mexico should commit to policies and regulations that continue to open access to markets, improve transparency, and expand opportunities for investment. Doing so will benefit both Americans and Mexicans.</div>

<p class="speakable-p-1 p-text">Some 30,000 children marched in Belgium weeks ago against Climate Change. It is only a matter of two years before a few members of Congress, alone with only cameras today, will march at the head of crowds of 500,000 down Pennsylvania Avenue.</p>
<p class="speakable-p-2 p-text">It will have its colors; green — and yellow for the French — as 2020 arrives. </p>
<p class="p-text">New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan-Grisham placed the state in the march which calls for America to join the Paris Agreement on climate change when she joined the U.S. Climate Alliance. But is it all for Green Energy without technology?</p>
<p class="p-text">So far there is nothing on the road that eliminates carbon. The Green Deal is loaded: it offers “Green Energy” with diversionary political baggage.</p>
<p class="p-text">Is it around the corner? It is. In six years, Audi-Porsche-VW will have an electric car on I-25 that will be zero-emissions, cost $27,000 (today's dollar) with a range that beats Tesla. </p>

The Governor would be in her second term along with the Secretary of Energy and Minerals when this bit of history is made.</div>

<p class="p-text">Too soon to shake heads negatively. The surprise is a mass electric car with a German engineering in a Ford. Indeed, Ford will no doubt bid for the license is this writer’s forecast.</p>
<p class="p-text">The revolutionary change is green energy and colorless technology. The kids in Belgium would be getting drivers licenses by then. What happens to I-25 or 550?</p>
<p class="p-text">Perhaps a new state budget along with Washington will build recharge sites or stations.</p>
<p class="p-text">What happens to oil and associated gas in New Mexico?</p>
<p class="p-text">Overall, the Permian Delaware retreats from historic production highs (2018) as demand for oil as the transportation fuel declines. Cars currently owned must be serviced with oil-based fuel until traded-in for electrics." </p>
