  Oil price eases; Greenspan says high energy prices draining purchasing
power from oil consumers
By Finfacts Team
Oct 18, 2005, 06:35

Oil prices moved down on Tuesday after rising nearly 3 percent the previous
day, as the path of a new tropical storm may miss hurricane-damaged Gulf of
Mexico oil facilities.

The price of US light crude fell 44 cents to $63.92 per barrel in
after-hours electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In
London, Brent crude was down 13 cents at $58.86.

Tropical Storm Wilma gained strength in the Caribbean Sea but shifted its
expected path to the east toward Florida, the latest forecast from the US
National Hurricane Center (NHC) showed on Tuesday.

The storm could pose less of a threat to oil and gas operations in the Gulf
of Mexico and refining operations on the Gulf Coast than had been expected
although the NHC said Wilma could become a hurricane by Tuesday.

US crude oil and natural gas production in the Gulf of Mexico is slowly
recovering after the extensive damage that was caused by Hurricanes Katrina
and Rita in the region in August and September.

On Monday, oil output that was shut down totaled 66.4 percent of the Gulf of
Mexico's normal 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd) production, improved from
67.3 percent shut on Friday, the U.S. Minerals Management Service said in
its latest report.

The peak winter heating fuel demand in the northern hemisphereis ahead and
on Wednesday, US government data on fuel stocks will be published.

*Greenspan on energy prices*

Surging energy prices will weigh on global growth but will likely exact a
much smaller toll than surging oil prices did in the 1970s, US Federal
Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said in Tokyo on Tuesday.

Despite an inevitable near-term impact on growth, oil prices remain below
their inflation-adjusted peak of 1981 and the world's economy has grown more
energy-efficient in recent decades, Greenspan said in a speech to Japanese
business leaders.

"Although the global economic expansion appears to have been on a reasonably
firm path through the summer months, the recent surge in energy prices will
undoubtedly be a drag from now on," he said.

"The effect of the current surge in oil prices, though noticeable, is likely
to prove significantly less consequential to economic growth and inflation
than the surge in the 1970s."

China's economic power house to utilize wind power technology

Wind turbines could generate enough electricity by 2020 to power the
southern city of Guangzhou, capital of
Guangdong<http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/data/province/guangdong.html>Province,
known as China's economic power house, according to a Greenpeace
report.

Tuesday's China Daily said that the Greenpeace-commissioned report was
carried out by Britain-based wind power consultancy company Garrad Hassan
and Partners Ltd. in cooperation with Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou.

The report said that by 2020, winds breezing through the province could be
utilized in generating 35,000 gigawatt hours of electricity, or 17 percent
of the province's total 2003 power consumption.

With a long coastline and numerous islands, Guangdong could match
Germany<http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/data/germany.html>in the
natural condition for wind power generation, said Gao Hui, China
project manager for Garrad Hassan.

The province, which contributes one-ten of China's economic volume, is
expected to see its power consumption grow by 15 percent this year. The
power supply is foreseeable to fall short of demand by 2007.

Wind power generation would not only help fill the supply-demand gap, but
also reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the province, which achieved a
12.6percent growth in gross domestic product (GDP) in the first half
year.

Guangdong ranks fourth among Chinese provinces in installed wind power
capacity. It had a total capacity of 86 megawatts, generated by three wind
farms comprising a total 179 turbines at the end of last year. The province
has drafted its own target of 3,000 megawatts by 2020.
