Have Your Say!
Robert, Patrick is right about the extraction economics. It is going to be hard to justify extraction at a cost of $75 a barrel when the Saudis and Russians can pull it out of the ground for $4. The high cost of oil now is the result of strong demand, weak reserves and high speculation. In about 5 years there will be little room for the huge profit margins seen today as supplies start drying up. That is why, Patrick we need to get those high extraction sources under development right now and not 5 or 10 years from now. We will need those supplies to come on line right about the time the big producers are starting to run out. No time left for any more obstructionism.
