About Oil, but don't make it political

Received this and makes sense if it's all true



OIL
Here's an interesting read, important and verifiable information :
About 6 months ago, the writer was watching a news program on oil and one of the Forbes Bros. was the guest.

The host said to Forbes, "I am going to ask you a direct question and I would like a direct answer; how much oil does the U.S.
have in the ground?"

Forbes did not miss a beat, he said, "more than all the Middle East
put together." Please read below.

The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April
2008 that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was
it big. It was a revised report (hadn't been updated
since 1995) on how much oil was in this area of the western 2/3 of
North Dakota, western South Dakota, and extreme eastern
Montana ...... check THIS out:


The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska's
Prudhoe Bay, and has the potential to eliminate all American
dependence on foreign oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels. Even if just 10%
of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel, we're looking at a
resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.



"When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically
see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea." says
Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's financial analyst.

"This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field
found in the past 56 years," reports The Pittsburgh Post
Gazette. It's a formation known as the Williston Basin, but is more commonly referred to as the 'Bakken.' It stretches from Northern
Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada.

For years, U. S. oil exploration has been considered a dead end. Even the 'Big Oil' companies gave up searching for major oil
wells decades ago. However, a recent technological
breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves.... and
we now have access to up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans
just $16 PER BARREL!



That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 2041 years straight. And if THAT didn't throw you on
the floor, then this next one should - because it's from 2006!
U. S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World
Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006

Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky
Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in
the world. It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August
8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction.

In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this mother load of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?

They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our
borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:

- 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia

- 18-times as much oil as Iraq

- 21-times as much oil as Kuwait

- 22-times as much oil as Iran

- 500-times as much oil as Yemen

- and it's all right here in the Western United States.

HOW can this BE? HOW can we NOT BE extracting

this? Because the environmentalists and others have

blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil!

Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy.....WHY?

James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION barrels untapped. That's more than all the
proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post.

Don't think 'OPEC' will drop its price - even with this
find? Think again! It's all about the competitive marketplace, - it has to.


Think OPEC just might be funding the environmentalists?
By the way...this is all true. Check it out at the link

Alan;I have read that before,interesting.I talked to a good friend that has been in the oil industry for over 35 years and he said he believes the story because they are currently pulling a lot of natural gas out of that range. Diesel is $4.00+a gallon out here in So.CA.!!!!! ROY.

Not so sure I would believe this coming from a pro solar website. How do we know who to believe anymore, everyone is out to line their pockets and the heck with the rest of us. Just look how Al Gore has scamed us in the name of MONEY.
