It's one story: a threat by the oil guys to divert attention to China for future oil exports. (Essentially the same threat as made by Gazprom a week ago).

It's a real story, but it's ONLY about oil.

The title is meant, as far as I can see, to link to earlier GAS stories, because these take special resonance in the UK these days.

A pipeline is a pipeline, after all. Oil, gas, what's the difference? Most people don't KNOW that there is a difference.

The FT should know better. This is either wilful manipulation or massive incompetence.

That's what I mean - it's like they took bits of stories from the last few weeks and sort of threw them in with today's news for the hell of it. It doesn't even make sense as a story.

Or maybe my six months working in the oil industry made me more aware of the differences between different things that go in pipelines.
