Forces at work.
Exxon has been trying to stop natural gas for as long as possible. It has been buying up natural gas companies for several years. It may be building a dam, and keeping smaller companies from profiting while it continues to make money on gasoline and diesel, including exporting it. At some point it will be forced to join the natural gas fuel bandwagon and the flood of their cheap gas might enable them to buy up more companies on the cheap. They may be wanting to control natural gas prices, as the Rockefellers did with oil. I doubt it is possible. What do you think?
