Production

[edit]

Why does this article (which is about the reserves) have so much info about oil production? I think that belongs to some other article. Offliner (talk) 09:36, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MOL - Ray Leonard?

[edit]

I don't think that the linked Ray Leonard (MOL) is the right one... it is a boxer and occasional actor. I guess you mean the European oil company MOL? I the long article about Leonard there is not one word about MOL or oil? -- Kilon22 (talk) 04:14, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A strange statement

[edit]

Soviet Union reached a peak of 12.77 million barrels per day (2.030×106 m3/d) in total liquids in 1987, and production had fallen to around 5.82 million barrels per day (925×103 m3/d) by the mid-1990s. A turnaround in Russian oil output began in 1999, which many analysts attribute to the privatization of the industry. Couldn't expand? Normal logic suggests that, since the process of privatization happened in the first half of 1990s, and production fell greatly by the mid-1990s, then privatization is a likely cause of the fall, not of the turnaround, in oil production, while the turnaround happened just when the shock to the economy had passed, for natural causes: people found their ways again in the changed conditions. - 92.100.164.199 (talk) 17:46, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
