Quick Glance: Oil Analyst Criticizes Robert Kennedy Jr.'s Fracking Ban Idea, Warns of Oil Price Spike to Over $200
- Democratic presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. faced severe criticism from an oil analyst after announcing his plan to ban fracking as part of his 10-point strategy to address the plastic pollution crisis.
- Energy Price Spike: A fracking ban in the U.S. would lead to oil prices surging to $200 per barrel, gasoline prices to $9 per gallon, and natural gas prices to $9 to $14, according to Anas Alhajji, an oil analyst based in Dallas, on X on Sunday.
- Alhajji's price projection in the event of a potential fracking ban implies that crude oil and gas prices would more than double from their current levels.
- This would result in a heavy reliance on foreign countries, including Russia and OPEC members, as highlighted by Alhajji.
