Russia has found vast oil and gas reserves in the Antarctic, much of it in areas claimed by the UK.

Reserves totalling 511bn barrels of oil – about 10 times the North Sea’s entire 50-year output – have been reported to Moscow by Russian research ships, according to evidence given to the Commons Environment Audit Committee (EAC) last week.

It follows a series of surveys by the Alexander Karpinsky vessel, operated by Rosgeo – the Russian agency charged with finding mineral reserves for commercial exploitation.

If the rest of the world is fighting over oil in Antarctica, they can't be united against you.

Has it occurred to you that the Russian government is dumb as fuck? (like the past few years have proven)

the peak oil prediction was for peak oil production. and I remember the paper leaning heavily on $ per barrel as the key metric. and he's been right so far.

Lmao all the expertise that created and maintained Russia's Arctic fossil fuel exploitation is all Western or at least non-Russian.

Its why sanctions have been enough to stop Russia's new LNG facility.
