U.S. OIL SUPPLY.....INCREDIBLE..!!

 

About 6 months ago, there was 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."

 

 

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 (5 Billion barrels), 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 analyzer.  "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 of 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 many recent years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this mother lode 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?

 

 

Got your attention yet? Now, while you're thinking about it, do this:

 

 

Pass this along. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you complain about gas prices, by doing NOTHING, you forfeit your right to complain.

 

 

Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to everyone in your address book.

I saw a report last night that some of the green organizations are funded in part by Russia, makes sense right? This morning on Fox and Friends a reporter was on an oil field in Texas. She was interviewing an executive about drilling. Their permit on a lease on government land is being held up over pro nouns. 

[diyer2]

The way I see a lot of issues is the lawyers and politicians are like kids on an elementary school playground. 

[KARNUT]

Going to my favorite walking track to walk and to check out gas prices. There’s been no change in the last few days. Of course they may have not gotten any new delivery’s since stopping Russian imports. 3.89 to 3.99$ currently. 

[PhilB]

Another interesting article - this one on CNN - with some facts about the record high gas prices.  

 

https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/10/politics/record-gas-prices-wont-be-solved-by-drilling-more-oil-climate/index.html

 

Here is a snippet for why the US imports crude oil:

There's also the fact that the US consumes a different kind of oil than it produces. McNally likened the kind of light crude the US produces to champagne, and the heavy crude it imports to coffee.

Importantly, US oil refineries are built to refine this "heavy and gunky" imported crude -- akin to separating out coffee grounds, McNally said.

[KARNUT]

I watch a piece this morning on leases and drilling. Basically in the nutshell there are leases you just can’t get permits. The application process takes months. One company is being delayed over pronouns. So add another 6months. See the problem? Now on private land in Texas it takes days.

12$ / gallon for regular fuel today. On the highway, the price is at 13$ to 15$ / gallon. The prices went up alot here too, and last time I checked, Biden wasn't my president. Anyways, I'm glad that i can use e85, because it is more or less locally produced (wood waste) the price is relatively stable.

E85 all good great octane rating burns clean but almost 40% less MPG , yes its avalalible  but its costing you more to drive when you use it

Not really.  These are my stats over 5 years using both.

 

[swathdiver]

 

This chart shows what the cost per mile has been to use each fuel for my house.  Note, I do not burn 87 octane swill, always use 93 for best MPG and performance.

 

It's not always less expensive to run E85 compared to gasoline.  When it is I take full advantage of it like at my next fuel stop!  It's $1.50 less per gallon in my area right now.  The motors love the stuff, it's literally like running Sunoco race gas.

[KARNUT]

Fuel prices are dropping a little here. Just under 3.60 a gallon. Just in time for my first trip to Fayetteville from Montgomery TX this year.

if we only kept the mean tweets in office the gas would be 1.69 a gallon

Pepper is a Flex Fuel rig. About two years ago I did an experiment for part of the summer and found the price of E85 to rest on the actual alcohol content vs mileage decrease vs cost of E10 87 octane. In which case is was within 1 cent of break even every tank. I could almost predict the alcohol content by the price difference and be within a few percent. 

 

Example: When the test percentage of E85 was 70% the price would be 22% below E10 87 and she got 22% lower mileage.

 

Petro Truck Stop locally has a sticker on the pump stating some like "E-85 may contain between 51% and 83% ethanol". Then a second sticker stating "This pump 70% minimum year around". The attendant there is also quite good at knowing what the current tank 'test percentage' is. Pepper also has a ethanol percentage read out.

Do this for an at the pump test.  There are many brands but you get the idea.

U.S. OIL SUPPLY.....INCREDIBLE..!!

 

About 6 months ago, there was 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."

 

 

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 (5 Billion barrels), 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 analyzer.  "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 of 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 many recent years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this mother lode 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?

 

 

Got your attention yet? Now, while you're thinking about it, do this:

 

 

Pass this along. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you complain about gas prices, by doing NOTHING, you forfeit your right to complain.

 

 

Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to everyone in your address book.

Current oil prices issues have nothing to do with that mostly political POV email. 

 

Oil companies don't want to increase supply right now. OPEC is restricting supply. 

 

So having 9000 unused drilling rights or increasing any supply has more to do with major oil companies not wanting a boom and bust cycle. They are trying to stabilize supply and limited supply makes more profit. It's pretty simple. 

 

Any one here who lived through the boom and bust cycles in the past 50 years of oil extraction, production, or sales understands that.  

 

Increasing dependence of fossil fuels is a net loser.  Imagine if Europe was off dependence of Russian gas and oil. 

 

So emails like that miss the point.  No government controls free markets in democracies. The oil companies and associated contractors do. 

 

Oil companies don't want to flood THE WORLD market with oil based energy right now because they don't want it to fall on its face later. 

 

In the meantime supply of about everything is below demand....basic econ 101......Prices will rise until demand drops. 

 

Having worked and depended on big oil for 42+ years for my business no oil company right now is going to increase production unless we declare a national emergency and ONLY THEN will government force increased production. Even then the US is a net exporter of oil so who will have their prices drop, probably those we sell oil and gas to.  Not the US.  

 

A BALANCED ENERGY POLICY BASED ON REALITY OF WORLD AND WORLD MARKETS what will over time help USA.  txab was right.
