Call it "climate change karma".
One industry which will be hurt by rising sea levels caused by climate change is the oil industry. 🙂
Rising sea levels driven by the climate crisis will overwhelm many of the world’s biggest oil ports, analysis indicates. Scientists said the threat was ironic as fossil fuel burning causes global heating. They said reducing emissions by moving to renewable energy would halt global heating and deliver more reliable energy. Thirteen of the ports with the highest supertanker traffic will be seriously damaged by just 1 metre of sea level rise, the analysis found. The researchers said two low-lying ports in Saudi Arabia – Ras Tanura and Yanbu – were particularly vulnerable. Both are operated by Aramco, the Saudi state oil firm, and 98% of the country’s oil exports leave via these ports. The oil ports of Houston and Galveston in the US, the world’s biggest oil producer, are also on the list, as are ports in the United Arab Emirates, China, Singapore and the Netherlands. The latest science published by the International Cryosphere Climate Initiative (ICCI) shows 1 metre of sea level rise is now inevitable within a century or so and could come as early as 2070 if ice sheets collapse and emissions are not curbed.
We would hope that the oil companies would be out of business by 2070. But greed is a powerful incentive to continue damaging behavior.
Murray Worthy, of Zero Carbon Analytics, who is part of the team, said: “This analysis shows that relying on fossil fuels in a warming world is a path to disaster, not energy security. Countries face a choice: stick with fossil fuels and risk supply disruptions as rising seas flood ports and terminals, or transition to secure, sustainable domestic renewables.”

La Russia inizia a esportare gasolio in Arabia Saudita
...e lo fa con i sottomarini, secondo la Reuters
🌍Secondo i dati di Refinitiv almeno tre carichi che trasportano 190.000 tonnellate di gasolio sono salpati dal porto baltico russo di Primorsk a febbraio e sono ora diretti in Arabia Saudita.
⚓La petroliera Srini, con 66.000 tonnellate di gasolio russo, sta scaricando nel porto saudita di Jeddah mentre l'Apanemo e la Zarya sono destinate a Ras Tanura.
❕Una volta scaricato e parzialmente raffinato, l'Arabia Saudita potrebbe riesportare il diesel russo verso altre destinazioni, alla faccia delle #sanzioni. L' embargo UE completo sui prodotti petroliferi russi è iniziato il 5 febbraio scorso e di tutta risposta gli esportatori russi hanno iniziato a deviare le spedizioni di navi cisterna verso l'Africa e l'Asia, oltre a effettuare carichi nave-nave (STS).

from wikipedia.
Amoco Cadiz contained 1,604,500 barrels (219,797 tons) of light crude oil from Ras Tanura, Saudi Arabia and Kharg Island, Iran.[9] Severe weather resulted in the complete breakup of the ship before any oil could be pumped out of the wreck, resulting in her entire cargo of crude oil (belonging to Shell) and 4,000 tons of fuel oil being spilled into the sea.[10] The US NOAA estimates that the total oil spill amounted to 220,880 metric tonnes of oil.[11]
In 1988 a U.S. federal judge ordered Amoco Oil Corporation to pay $85.2 million in fines; $45 million for the costs of the spill and $39 million in interest.[9] In 1992, Amoco agreed to pay $230 million (equivalent to $480m in 2022).
i learned about the tanker Amoco Cadiz ran aground, partially sinking, off the coast of Brittany in 1978.
Today it is a real tourist attraction because of its incredible resemblance to the snout of a megalodon, a legendary giant shark.

“During World War II, most American craftsmen served in the armed forces or worked in defense-related plants, creating a shortage in other sectors. Meanwhile, the Allied victory in North Africa left hundreds of skilled Italians in the former Italian colony of Eritrea standing idle, having been interned by the British in 1941 as prisoners of war. Some were released to work for American firms such as Douglas Aircraft, but guarding the remaining Italians in Eritrea continued to drain Allied resources. In 1943, Aramco received permission to build the Ras Tanura Refinery but found it lacked skilled workers. At the suggestion of Colonel L. T. “Stormy” Weathers, those in charge of the operation turned to the Italian internees for a new source of carpenters, plumbers, masons and other skilled labor. In 1944, after securing the King’s assent to the presence of Italian workers on a temporary basis, Aramco began the process of bringing in more than 1,000 men. Ilo Battigelli, an Italian photographer hired to document Aramco’s refinery construction project, recalled, “We left Eritrea for Saudi Arabia not for adventure, but out of hunger. I wanted to eat more than once a day.” Conditions were hard in Saudi Arabia, but the assignment gave the Italians an opportunity to earn wages from their skills. Half of the men were repatriated to Italy in late 1945 after the completion of the refinery, but the remainder stayed. The need for Italian craftsmen waned over the following decades, although the growth of Saudi Arabia’s industrial sector led to a hiring surge in 1951. With the arrival after 1948 of Palestinian refugees, who served as an alternative pool of skilled workers, the number of Italians dwindled to 33 by 1961.” - Theodore J. Brockish et al., Energy to the World: The Story of Saudi Aramco. Aramco Services Company, 2011. ”By 1944, as the allies regained control of the sea, the United States shipped more materials to Saudi Arabia and also sent some Italian prisoners of war there to work as laborers. Joined by local Arabs, they built a refinery at Ras Tanura, a pipeline to Bahrain, and a U.S. air force base to protect them at Dhahran.” - Mark Weston, Prophets and Princes: Saudi Arabia from Muhammad to the Present. Hoboken, New Jersey: John Wiley & Sons, 2008. p. 150. ”Workers’ struggles at the point of production also affected the formation of labor policy [in Saudi Arabia’s oil fields]. A strike in 1943 by Indian workers at the Ras Tanura refinery in Saudi Arabia compelled the Arabian American Oil Company (Aramco) into using Italian prisoners of war as slave labor.”
- Midnight Notes Collective, “To Saudi With Love: Working Class Composition in the Mideast” in Midnight Oil: Work, Energy, War, 1973-1992. Autonomedia, 1992. p. 25. Image (top): Italian prisoners of war, Oran, Algeria, 1943. Middle: Italian workers from the former Italian colony of Eritrea started to arrive in 1944 to help alleviate a labor shortage.
