Saudi-Arabia field-by-field analysis

My little publication “Saudi Arabian Oilproduction field by field Analysis” has several aims: to show you the contribution of Saudi-Arabian Oilproduction over time / past and future / to the world and give you some more statistical information then was ever published over this wonderful great treasure of nature in the desert.

This documentation is written with my best knowledge and intended to give you the most accurate picture possible of Saudi Arabia over time since the beginnings of the oilproduction. No official statistic available worldwide gives single field by field data. It is kept like state’s secret, so I had to put together every single part of a great puzzle of data from different provenance and precision over many years. I collected them, but only the latest presentation of Saudi Officials made it possible to draw that picture clearly and conclusively. The appearance of Mr. Saleri and Mr. Baqi at the CSIS in Washington in 2004 and of Mr. Nawad Obaid in November 2006 was not “par hasard”; it was well planned, giving the public in the world and especially in the oilguzzling and very oildependent industrialised west a insight over the future prospects of Saudi oilproduction, without “loosing their face” as reliable supplier of oil to the world.

Without loosing their face… the italian says: “far’ bella figura”; this argument is strong and well present in the whole world: everyone likes to be integer, serious in the face of others. Does war contribute to that fundamental human wish? Or does “knowledge over facts” more to that and help mankind to be in peace among the nations. This is my little 2006-Christmas-gift to you: some fact over a really delicate issue, hoping to be a small contribution to preserve our friendship, among us as human beings, and among nations, based on better understanding of rather unpleasant facts, underlined by high energy prices. In the same intention, a better understanding, this documentation is written in english and has a complete german translation at the end for those among you, who give preference to their own mother tongue.

Please apologize my imperfectness in english.
Thank you.

This documentation is also my Christmas-gift 2006 to our Federal Council (Bundesrat) together with the poster “the oil age” (world oil production 1859 – 2050) I got from my ASPO-friends. I am sure, that “energy” will be one of the most important issues being discussed in the next few years in the parliaments worldwide… so, what could be more helpful than facts?
