Just a query...its nothing to with this forum..but how come if Crude Oils getting cheaper for a barrel then how is it that Natural gas which is linked to the price of Crude is to go up by anything up to 60% over the next year or Two.....just dont add up does it.??????


Why do you say that natural gas is linked to crude oil? LPG may be linked to crude oil but I think natural gas comes from a different source.



Just as Gas can come from many sources EG , Coal or other Carbon based Minerals, it is of a Natural Origin and not Man made, that in mind LPG is the end result the final stage after the Naturally occurring gas is Extracted and becomes Gas as we think of it, that Gas in some cases can be Processed and Pressurized until it becomes a Liquid..hence the title LPG or LIQUIFIED PETROLEUM GAS...just as any gas derived from an oil field could become LPG if we required it to be, the same is to be said of the North sea oil fields, we get Natural gas from there but it is Piped ashore as gas in its gaseous form because its more easily done than Turning it into a Liquid, they only turn Gasses into LPG for ease of transportation. The LPG once released from its Tank and its Immense pressures simply resorts to its Gaseous state...all gasses can become liquid under pressure.

I think they're out regardless of any duty cuts come the next election.

I might even come home and vote SNP, they seem to be doing everything right at the moment.
