TEHRAN (AFP) -- Iran's oil minister confirmed on Saturday that the French energy giant Total SA (12027.FR) was out of a multi-billion dollar gas investment in the Islamic republic, the state broadcaster reported."Total's recent move in withdrawal from phase 11 of the South Pars is a completely political move and not a commercial one," Nozari said.
The French firm's chief Christophe de Margerie said in an interview published Thursday that it was too politically risky to invest in Iran at present.
Western governments have pressured firms to cut their ties with Iran over the country's controversial nuclear program that world powers fear could be aimed at seeking atomic weapons.
If a giant like Total fina is pulling out of Iran, they must be under great political pressure to do so - gas will keep going up! Reply

Marc:Although I agree with the tone of your article, do not know if I agree that any big oil plays w. international exposure are LT buys. Believe BP struggle with 50-50 TNK-BP venture in Russia highlights dangers of nationalization policies throughout the world, which exposes Exxon & its int'l sisters to reserve replacement risks, too.

A far better play today is to just buy SOL (Renesola) With an 8 forward PE, SOL is a bargain, and far better investment than ESLR... today is the last day you will see SOL at today's prices... Here is what Zacks just announced today about amazing SOL:As of this report, SOL trades at only 14.2x our current-year2008 EPS estimate and only 8.8x our forward 2009 EPS estimate, or at the lower-end of the range of the
alternative energy industry. Likewise, SOL trades in the lower-end of a wide price-to-cashflow range for
its industry, although it also trades in the upper-end of a similarly wide price-to-sales range. Accordingly,
with a bullish outlook, predominantly discount valuation metrics, and above industry average long-term
EPS growth expectations, we initiate coverage of on SOL with a BUY recommendation and a six-month
target price of $24.25, representing 27.2% upside potential. Reply

The Senate hearings with Big Oil are almost as relevant as the steroids hearings.The government's energy plan only includes getting re-elected in November. I hope their plan fails. Reply
America's Energy Policy: Coming to Terms with Reality [view article]
The politicians complaining the loudest about high prices are the same ones obstructing new exploration for energy. I am sick and tired of hearing these morons wax eloquent about wind, solar, conservation etc. while ignoring the fact that these are only going to be marginal factors for the next several decades. T. Boone Pickens wind farm project on the TX panhandle will take up 400,000 acres to generate power for 1 million homes. How much space can we devote to that?Nuclear? Nooo! Coal liquification? Nooo, too much CO2. LNG Terminals? Nooo, too ugly. Drill in ANWAR and continental shelves? No, but the Chinese are drilling in Cuban waters. They will be great stewards of the ocean environment.

We must assume that once a person reaches the US Senate they have above average intelligence, so why the idiotic posturing from both parties at the recent hearings?I'm guessing they speak to their constituencies who they apparently think are simple minded or are paying them to avoid cutting to the chase. No politician wants to deliver bad news to the electorate. That is everyone's fault as we tend to elect candidates that tell us what we want to hear or in the alternative candidates we know the least about.

As long as the politico's avoid reality, the play is simple--stay long oil. The day I hear Diane Feinstein admit that there is a supply/demand imbalance is the day I go short oil. Reply
