What is OPEC? | CNBC Explains

The fluctuating price of oil is largely decided by supply and demand and the collective actions of OPEC, an organization that provides 40% of the world’s oil. CNBC's Tom Chitty explains.

    Certainly the other essential element required for this form of energy allthough slowed renewable will become exhausted to render it ineffective for energy. Renewable forms of energy also requiring this eliment will also become almost as equally ineffective or as ineffective as it could become more available as the other essential element .

    I wonder if the U.S. could produce the same 20% of oil it buys through OPEC but domestically? Would OPEC control be reduced in the U.S. The conversion to renewable in the U.S. is going to take a long time. I don't know how much longer we can take this pain.

    At one time oil was so cheap the oil companies were not making enough to make it worth while. Price did go up and leveled off still significantly lower than it is today. The way things where going under Trump we would be selling oil to the world. Now we beg on both knees for oil. Something is wrong here. If it were cheaper just to buy then why do we need President Biden's day 1 Excutive Orders on Oil and Gas drilling and exploration?

    OPEC is definitively relevant (any monopoly would be) but it's supply, not demand that controls prices (As with any monopoly). The demand side control only exists if you can live without the product.

    The US imports oil so that it doesn't have to deplete it's own reserves. I don't think it's much more complicated than that, the unfortunate effect is that the US population will not benefit from lower gas prices no matter how much oil it discovers. Fracking has produced localized reduction in natural gas pricing, but not in proportion to what it produces. It's all carefully controlled to keep prices where they are. They just throw the public a bone every now and then to prevent a "peasant uprising" for gouging.
