#oil people: 'how do you mean "turn it back on?" let me make my sophistry ass calculation of a two phase flow through a porous medium, then i can eventually tell you when it will be "back on" (if geology doesn't hate me).'

tldr; : basically the flow to an oil well is to a little extend engineered, a dynamic flow regime underground. when you stop that it all comes to a halt. now. as far as i understand it, after settling, water and oil behave very different on restart than they have in that somewhat engineered flow regime and in some formations water flows faster to the well than the oil, "short circuiting" it, and they might have to flow back all that water before getting any oil out of the ground.

also this has been rumored as a problem by the usual suspect. idk. i mean i trust the GCC to know how to restart an oil field? but it could take time.

this is a good example of how a large stock in a #system always represents a delay. the tanks are filled with 120$ oil for now. it takes time for that stock to empty. and they are unlikely to joyfully refine that oil into a falling market. meaning prices at the pump don't react to falling oil prices immediately. this state, where a system is still reacting on old information is called hysteresis.

Fuel Shortages Expose Economic Triage Priorities

When fuel supplies dwindle, governments face a tough decision: do they prioritize comfort or economic stability? Rationing fuel based on economic capability can help prevent wider system failures, but prioritizing comfort can undermine resilience.
