Oil Prices are Skyrocketing in the Current Face of Inflation!

By: Anne Catherine

The progress in modern technology as well as the breathtaking development that the human race has achieved in all fronts would have been impossible without the utilization of the natural resource called oil. Oil is a natural resource that has been instrumental in catapulting man into the peak of development he is enjoying today. Taking into account the "never-say-die" attitude of the human breed, we can state that the human beings would have managed to achieve development as well as improvement even without the utilization of oil. However, in the current scheme of things, life is almost impossible and unthinkable without oil.

Modern technology would have been close to non-existing without oil, the invaluable gift of nature. Today, we have become so much dependent on oil in our day-to-day life that we cannot even think of moving a step ahead if all the resources of oil are dried up and the supply of oil is stopped. However, the matter of fact is that this natural resource has become ingrained in our lives. It exists and contributes in so many different ways to fulfill our day-to-day necessities that it has become impossible for us to figure out the extent to which we owe our modern existence to oil.

Unfortunately, this natural resource has become a bone of contention among many countries. The actual cause of American attacks on countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan as well as the principal factor responsible for the complex American policies in the Middle East are no longer under wraps. Oil has led to a very sad state of affairs in the world today. People have started to indulge in large-scale warfare and terrorism just to get hold of oil resources. Similar to the other natural resources, oil is not available everywhere and only a few places have been blessed with oil. These countries that exert supreme influence over the sale and purchase of oil are increasingly tried to be won over by other nations that are bereft of oil resources. For oil being the most costly and highly utilized natural resource, almost all the countries worldwide are pursuing this item and are quite ready to get hold of it at any cost.

But as the demand for oil is far more than supply, the price of oil has increased tremendously in the recent years. Whenever oil prices experience a hike, a chain reaction ensues and the prices of almost all the day-to-day commodities also increase, thereby affecting every strata of the society. In the current scenario, when inflation is the talk of the town and is a growing concern for everybody, oil prices have skyrocketed to an unbelievable 129 USD per barrel. This is the highest level attained by oil prices and the price of oil is not likely to fall below this range in the near future.

Though the prices of all commodities, including oil are experiencing a steep hike, the scene in the technological field in India is quite different. IT related services like and can be availed of at a significantly cheaper rate, when hired from a reputed in India. Software development companies in India are equipped with experienced outsource software developers to successfully and effectively execute the projects assigned by clients across the world.
