Rising oil prices likely to effect Pollution and Flow Control markets

According to Robert McIlvaine, President of the McIlvaine Company, the steeply rising cost of oil will reduce investment in energy intensive industries in the U.S. and Europe. This means that suppliers of pollution and flow control equipment to the pulp and paper, steel, mining, chemical, and cement industries will have to reduce their forecasts in these markets.

I would think that as the cost of fuel rises the value of equipment that is able to reduce those costs would rise. What might have saved you 5 cents now might save you 50 cents per gallon.
