A spike in shale oil and gas production is radically changing the energy sector and risks weighing on prices of conventional crude, according to industry experts. A forecast last week by the International Energy Agency that the United States would become the world’s biggest oil producer by 2017 thanks to an explosion in hard-to-reach energy trapped in shale, or sedimentary rock, has triggered debate among companies and consumers.
Chrysler Group will add a third shift next spring at its Warren Truck plant in suburban Detroit and revamp part of its Mack Engine complex in Detroit to make more Pentastar V6 engines. The moves represent about $238 million in further investment in the Detroit area and will add 1,250 jobs, a Chrysler spokeswoman confirmed. The engine production increase will ease the company’s tight supply of 3.6-liter V6 engines, which power most of Chrysler’s lineup of larger sedans, minivans, pickups and SUVs.
Boeing Co. has made decisions on the design and hired additional suppliers for its new 737 Max jet that is scheduled to start showing up in airline fleets in 2017. The company said that it finished the broad outlook or "firm concept" for the new single-aisle airplane, which Boeing says will boost fuel efficiency 13 percent by using new engines, a redesigned tail, winglets and aerodynamic lines. The new outline means that the plane won’t need the small bump found on the nose-gear door of earlier designs.
China said it would change its restrictive policy on certain steel imports from the United States after the World Trade Organization statement that China was in breach of international trade rules. After a meeting of the world trade arbiter’s dispute settlement body in Geneva, China said that although it "may not agree" with all the WTO’s findings, it would respect them and "work hard to implement" them.
Even small manufacturers have remarkably complex supply chains, oftentimes global in nature, that need to be managed effectively and efficiently to mitigate the endless sources of risk. Hundreds or thousands of third party relationships — and even more for large manufacturers — are a necessary evil in today’s economy, thanks to the efficiency that the system brings to a manufacturer’s operations. At the same time, this growing compendium of third parties must be held responsible for those risks. A few companies are looking into ways to help solve that dilemma.
A new joint venture will for the first time see Jaguars and Land Rovers built in China. The British luxury car company said that a deal has been made with the Chery Automobile Company to build the cars at a new factory to be built near Shanghai.

The trend of future nickel production is changing because of the current lack of high quality nickel sulfide exploration targets — nickel laterites are most likely to be developed as the world’s future primary nickel sources.
The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) plans to 3D-print parts for its next-generation rockets, a technique it says can save millions of dollars in manufacturing costs. Dubbed selective laser melting, the technique is being used for the Space Launch System, a rocket to take humans, equipment and experiments beyond low Earth orbit to nearby asteroids and eventually to Mars.
