Why did the oil price start cheap and after establishing OPEC it became higher

Geography
1 answer:
Lady_Fox [76]2 years ago
7 0
Oil still plays an important role in the global economy despite the continued efforts to reduce its use and to find alternative green energy sources. In the early days, finding oil during a drill was considered somewhat of a nuisance as the intended treasures were normally water or salt. It wasn't until 1847 that the first commercial oil well was drilled in the Absheron Peninsula, Azerbaijan.1 The U.S. petroleum industry was born 12 years later, in 1859, with intentional drilling near Titusville, Pennsylvania. (Drilling in the United States began in the early 1800s, but they were drilling for brine so any oil discovery was accidental.)2

Where is industry now shifting from in the world?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The industry nowadays is shifting from the more developed countries to less developed countries.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the less developed countries didn't really have any industry to start with, let alone for it to shift to another place from them.

B is not correct because the industry has been moving with the process of globalization, thus it has been shifting for some time now to the global markets.

C is correct because the industry from the more developed countries has seen a great opportunity and potential for making more profit in the less developed countries, and the reason for that is cheaper labor force, cheaper materials, and lower taxes.

D is not correct because these two regions are pretty much on the same level when it comes to industry, so there wouldn't really make any sense that it shifts from one to another.

"Why Do We Study the Sun?" How does the Sun help to protect life on Earth?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

We study about the sun because  

The sun is a normal star. It is much closer to us than any other star, and by studying the sun, we can therefore learn more about other stars. The better we understand other stars, the more we know about the Milky Way. From there we know more about other galaxies and in the end we learn more about the universe.

Explanation:

How does the Sun help to protect life on Earth?

It radiates light and heat, or solar energy, which makes it possible for life to exist on Earth. Plants need sunlight to grow. Animals, including humans, need plants for food and the oxygen they produce. Without heat from the sun, Earth would freeze.

What is an important difference between Western Europe economies and eastern urope exonomies?
mrs_skeptik [129]
The big difference between Eastern Europe and Western Europe is that Eastern Europe consists of countries that once belonged to the Soviet block, unlike the Western half. Economically, the Western Europe nations are much more advanced than the Eastern Europe nations. Western Europe outputs a lot more cash due to a larger free trade and more open economy as a whole.
