Welcome to the Frey

Don't plants eat carbon monoxide? So in theory, the more plants we put out, the less carbon we will have! And with all this "food" floating in the air, its no wonder why pumpkins are the size of houses now O_O

Plants convert Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen.

I was close!

I'm not sure if nuclear is the answer, after all I'm old enough to remember three mile island, and it will be run buy the government. we no what a bang up job our government has done, I'm not sure what the answer is. but any part of our government helping normal people out is a joke. only time they listen to us is when they want are vote.

America is sitting on top of a super massive 200 billion barrel Oil Field that could potentially make America Energy Independent and until now has largely gone unnoticed. Thanks to new technology the Bakken Formation in North Dakota could boost America’s Oil reserves by an incredible 10 times, giving western economies the trump card against OPEC’s short squeeze on oil supply and making Iranian and Venezuelan threats of disrupted supply irrelevant.

In the next 30 days the USGS (U.S. Geological Survey) will release a new report giving an accurate resource assessment of the Bakken Oil Formation that covers North Dakota and portions of South Dakota and Montana. With new horizontal drilling technology it is believed that from 175 to 500 billion barrels of recoverable oil are held in this 200,000 square mile reserve that was initially discovered in 1951. The USGS did an initial study back in 1999 that estimated 400 billion recoverable barrels were present but with prices bottoming out at $10 a barrel back then the report was dismissed because of the higher cost of horizontal drilling techniques that would be needed, estimated at $20-$40 a barrel.

It was not until 2007, when EOG Resources of Texas started a frenzy when they drilled a single well in Parshal N.D. that is expected to yield 700,000 barrels of oil that real excitement and money started to flow in North Dakota. Marathon Oil is investing $1.5 billion and drilling 300 new wells in what is expected to be one of the greatest booms in Oil discovery since Oil was discovered in Saudi Arabia in 1938.

The US imported about 14 million barrels of Oil per day in 2007 , which means US consumers sent about $340 Billion Dollars over seas building palaces in Dubai and propping up unfriendly regimes around the World, if 200 billion barrels of oil at $90 a barrel are recovered in the high plains the added wealth to the US economy would be $18 Trillion Dollars which would go a long way in stabilizing the US trade deficit and could cut the cost of oil in half in the long run.

This is a perfectly legal spot to drill.
It requires no lifting of moratoriums, or new offshore oil drilling.
Or killing of Marine life!

Here's the problem,
$5 million dollars a pop to drill, but that's not the big problem. IMO, the problem is,

The Oil and Gas Division regulates the drilling and production of oil and gas in North Dakota. Our mission is to encourage and promote the development, production, and utilization of oil and gas in the state in such a manner as will prevent waste, maximize economic recovery, and fully protect the correlative rights of all owners to the end that the landowners, the royalty owners, the producers, and the general public realize the greatest possible good from these vital natural resources.

The North Dakota Oil & Gas Resources owns it. Not Exxon, Not Shell, Not BP!!
It doesnt really help them at all!!
Still, Its not expected to reduce the price at the pump by much per gallon!

My guess is Bush and company wanting to lift the moratorium is all about competition....

Look Jobs,,,,

Eagle Oil, N Western Industries, etc.
Apply on line..... Haven't seen a job with Exxon yet!
Let me know if you do,,,

According to a recent study, the petroleum industry in North Dakota needs to hire nearly 12,000 new employees by 2010 to keep pace with the industry’s rapid growth and to replace workers scheduled to retire over the next few years. The industry expects to need an additional 3,300 new workers in 2007 alone to keep up with growth, replacements, and retirements. Industry leaders say this is good news for people looking for a job or a higher paying job in North Dakota. According to Job Service, the average yearly wage in the oil and gas industry in 2005 was $60,330. Jobs in demand include everything from equipment operators and truck drivers, to engineers and geologists. For more information on the need for workers, see the “oil industry jobs” section on this web site.


The Bakken Formation in North Dakota is attracting attention as one of the most exciting oil plays across the United States. The Bakken Formation has the potential to vastly increase North Dakota’s oil production with its enormous reserves. To find out more about the North Dakota Bakken Formation, read the Oil and Gas Tidbits Issue II, and see a map of the Bakken Formation by looking under the “News” section on this web site.
