Why is crude oil so expensive?

As it is a Fossil fuel that is running out at quite a quick pace, and because it is harder to find the price goes up thus giving you why it is so expensive.Why_is_oil_so_expensiveIf you prefer something a little more elaborate than we're running out of oil, which is only a half truth. We are running out of easily accessible oil.

Why is gas prices going back up?

For the most part, our gas prices do not follow any sort of documented pattern. While it has been great watching prices plummet over these past couple of months, this has less to do with demand, or supply because OPEC is a protected cartel. They set the price and we pay it, or go without gas. The problem, however, is when they keep the price high people start talking about alternative sources of energy ect, like we saw during the election. This is bad for them because they rely on our dependency for oil. Consequently they begin to lower the price, but that's not to say they won't raise it again once they feel our memories have been erased, ect.


What is worth more diamonds or oil?

Gold is worth more than diamonds (diamonds do not have a universal absolute value, whereas gold does). Oil is worth more than both gold and diamonds combined.We rely on oil to power our economies, keep the ships floating, keep our cars moving, keep the planes flying and so on. Without the oil, there is no economy. Wars are fought over oil, but none are fought over diamonds (except some small civil wars as a result of disputes).Oil however is running out, which makes it even more expensive and valuable than it used to be. We are quickly trying to find new ways to replace the oil we rely on, such as electric cars. Oil will only get even more valuable as it becomes rarer.Another AnswerIn terms of weight, a cup of diamonds vs a cup of oil depends on the quality of both. A cup of gemstones, for example, would be worth far more than a cup of oil. However, a cup of industrial diamonds -- about 80% of all those mined, would be worth less than a cup of oil.
