I'm a bit lost on the figure, could you give a better explanation. I think I understand capital intensive expenses, but the key is what's the ROI. If you spend 2.7 billion and get 100 billion back over a given period of time you get a better picture of the investment.

At an average capital intensity of about $22,500 per flowing barrel per day. Does that help?

If a company makes 10% profit on $100 oil, it would 2,250 days or 6 years and 2 months to break even.
