Hoarding is exactly what the government is doing right now by filling the SPR, and frankly it's the best thing that could happen. It drives prices up. High prices encourage demand destruction. They also finance new well development. The hoarded oil gives us a buffer to fall back on once shortages become more prevalent. High prices are what we need in order to adapt to what's coming, and the sooner they happen, the better.

The Idaho National Laboratory seeks the following:
1) Individual capable of building and managing an advanced fossil energy program, with a focus on fossil electric, synthethic fuels and/or refining plant design and analyses. Select indivdual must ber able to build a niche fossil energy/alternative energy program that leverages investments in simulation-driven analyses (gasifier design and simulation, advanced diagnostics, subsurface fate and transport, gas separations and cleanup, etc) and other "clean energy" program platforms (specifically, biofuels). Ideal candidates will have an advanced degree in engineering, chemistry, or physics, have established research credentials; have demonstrable accomplishments in the private fossil energy sector and have demonstrated strong program development skills and have significant professional contacts in the Western U.S. energy buisiness.
2) Individual who can augment an established team/program focused on biofuels feedstock systems, build additional program base in feedtock systems, thermochemical systems and fossil/bio hybrid systems.
Ideal candidate will have an advanced degree in engineering, physics, or chemistry; have establishd academic or commercial research credentials; have demonstrated accomplishments related to biofuels processes and/or systems; have demonstrated insights into cellulosic ethanol, biodiesel, algal oil and/or biomass gasification technology and markets.
Idaho Falls is a community with 60,000 residents and currently has the 6th best housing market in the country and for the last three months the nation's lowest unemployment rate. Interested candidates should submit a CV via email to: michael.williams@inl.gov.
