et's pretend I'm Saudi Arabia.
If, in one action, I could defund the Asaad regime and cripple Iran's economy, I would call that a great long term benefit.
Oh, and as a perk I gain a lot more market share after it's all over because a lot of people couldn't afford to weather the storm? More market share than I had when it all started? Yes, thank you, I'll take that long term benefit as well.
Oh, and I have close to a Trillion USD socked away for a rainy day and my annual budget is less than $250 Billion. So I can weather this storm longer than just about anybody else and my citizens will never see one bit of economic or social impact and I won't have to cut one program at all.
Tell me why I should even bother listening to the other members of OPEC?
Lots of Ifs so put up some numbers?
Everything I read, they don't have money to support "losing" money for much more than a year.
Most experts site about a year of this price war then prices will stabilize.
So yea, links and things dude.

I don't think so. I think I'm getting a firm grasp on who I am "debating" here "dude".

The EIA's November outlook report stated Saudi has one of the lowest cost per barrel and cash reserves approaching $1 trillion.
SA's 2014 budget is the highest ever at $228 billion.
They can also make up losses by gaining more market share and even increasing production.

Exactly 1 trillion/228 billion = 4.3 years of budget WITH NO CUTS AND ZERO SALES. It is a hard concept for some to grasp.

Yes, they have a low cost per barrel, but you have to look at their social budget. Seeing they need around $80'ish for their budget; reports vary.
I guess the better question is, in what terms are we talking.
Saudi vs Iran/Russia? Yea, they will win easy.
Saudi vs US Shale? No, this is the 80's anymore.

What makes you think that? Shale oil is very expensive to produce and refine.

Anywhere between $3M on the low end fields to $9M on the high end Bakken to drill a horizontal well. If you don't understand that shale oil/gas is tremendously expensive in the industry and requires a higher price of oil/ng, then you shouldn't be debating this with people who are obviously in the industry (which I am not).

I know prices per barrels. wanted to know why you made that statement. There are a number of shale producers who are/will be just fine.
It's the small guys is mega debt that will more than likely get naught up by the big guys.
