North American Crude Markets & Storage Summit Brian Adams
The First Event To Reveal North American Strategies For Maximizing Netbacks In The Volatile Crude Pricing Environment Over 3 Days.
The industry is tirelessly working to manage the "new normal" crude pricing, with the current environment forcing re-evaluation of operations from all North Americas' producers, shippers and traders, as stakeholders adapt to volatility.
With domestic production outstripping demand, the hunt for the strongest markets and the most cost effective modes for supplying them has never been more critical. Further export volumes are being assessed as means to ensure U.S. competitiveness, and traders and shippers require commercial evaluation of said exports urgently. Storage capacity limitations are forcing stakeholders to explore innovative and unprecedented strategies to store their crude, both on and offshore, to capitalize on the contango.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

10. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Phuong Thuan Tran
1. CRUDE TRADE
• ~37 mb/d in 2017
• Middle East = main crude exporting region: ~54% of inter-regional
crude exports by 2021
•No significant volumes of US crudes to markets outside the OECD
Americas (medium- term)
•Continue shifting eastwards to non-OECD Asia.
11. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Phuong Thuan Tran
2. DEMAND
Major contributed factors:
•One-off supports, particularly in OECD Europe
•Much lower oil prices —> Economic recovery
•Rising road transport fuel demand

•Air transport sectors
12. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Phuong Thuan Tran
2. DEMAND
Constraints to demand growth:
•Improved vehicle fuel efficiency
•Structural changes in the Chinese economy: reliance on heavy industry/
export > more services & domestic consumption
> lower demand for many commodities > price falls
•Recession in Brazil
•Prospect of rising interest rates in the United States
13. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Phuong Thuan Tran
3. SUPPLY
•Global oil capacity growth: 3.3 mb/d over 2015-2021
•Non-OPEC production:
2.0 mb/d ~ 60% of the increase
Supply: Decline of 0.6 mb/d in 2016, steady in 2017, recover from 2018
2021: 59.7 mb/d (2.0 mb/d higher than in 2015)
Russia: steepest output declines (medium term): ~ 275 kb/d lower by 2021
14. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Phuong Thuan Tran
3. SUPPLY
• OPEC production: 800 kb/d by 2021
Modest growth in the low-cost Middle East
Iran, Iraq, United Arab Emirates dominating the expansion

Annual Report 2016)
22. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Thu Thao Tran
Why and How?
Q1 - 2016: VLCC rate avg: $55k pd (Aframax: $35k, Suezmax $42k)
•Low oil price in Jan 2016 ($35/bbl)
•Increase in oil production from OPEC + US oil shale
Q2 - 2016: VLCC rate avg: $55k pd (Aframax: $25-30k, Suezmax $35k)
•Heavier global refinery maintenance schedule in 2016
•Increase in crude import in China & VLCC rates supported by high
Middle East Export
•Vessel delay between 2 regions of Middle East and China > increase
tonne-mile demand, tighten up supply & keep stable rates for VLCC
23. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Thu Thao Tran
Why and How?
Q3 - 2016: VLCC rate in August: $19k pd!!
•Global oil supply no longer growing
•Russia & Saudi Arabia stopped strategy
of flooding global market with oil with
attempt to put US drillers out of business
•Number of oil rigs in service in US
plunged
Q4 - 2016: VLCC rate avg: $35k pd
•Decrease in China crude production > import more
•VLCC rates supported by high Middle East exporters
24. Subject: Shipping Investment Patterns and Strategy - Thu Thao Tran
Why and How?
***Bahri’s shareholder: ARAMCO; Shipping partner of: BP, ExxonMobil
(big players in the industry)!!
Bahri Oil agreed with Saudi ARAMCO to potentially increase the volume
of oil deliveries to its clients in the East. In return for a 2.5% discount on the
additional deliveries to the East, if the total volume exceeds the 2015
levels. While this supports route diversification drive, it is also in line with
Bahri’s strategic goal of being Saudi ARAMCO’s shipping partner.
