Gulp, the cost of fill a tank with jet fuel.

katbuad · 05-16-2008, 10:37 AM

Just playing around with some numbers. . .

Avaition Industry wide. . .
Working my calculator 1,549,000 barrels of oil per day times 30 days in April times average cost of oil for April 2008 $110 that's $5,111,700,000!! Doing the same math but using April 2007 average cost of barrel of oil $72, you get $3,345,840,000.00. That is a difference of $1,765,860,000 just for one month! or $58,862,000 per day!!

My numbers are from. . .
US April Jet Fuel Demand Lowest In 5 Years
EIA - Short-Term Energy Outlook

Man, BIG numbers. I have a hard time wrapping my head around anything beyond the 10s of millions. Billions!? I'm getting dizzy.
