As state, local and federal officials brace for a major offshore drilling operation to begin between Cuba in Key West in December, another exploratory well may be drilled a year later in the Bahamas.
The Bahamian and Cuban governments on Oct. 3 signed an agreement delimiting the two nations’ maritime borders after nearly 40 years of negotiations. The move cleared a major obstacle in the way of the Bahamas’ oil exploration goals since leases identified for their potential oil finds are near Cuban waters.

Who let the drills out? (Who? Who? Who? Who?)
It’s ironic, it’s easier to get an avowedly Commie country like Cuba to accommodate the free world’s oil drilling than to get Obama to do it.
LOL!
...meanwhile..in DC....the _resident has one thumb in his mouth...the other where the moon don't shine....when someone yells SWITCH!
nothing to see here...move along.

Cuba is run by an EXPERIENCED communist.....
The Bahamian and Cuban oil will impact the price of oil just like domestic oil.
There’s a big seamount around the Cay Sal Banks. I’m guessing that’s where they’ll drill.
But...but...what will happen to the pristine beaches, the crystal clear blue waters, the abundant sealife???? - oh, the humanity.....
Too bad. Looks like the Bahamians are sitting atop hundreds of millions of barrels.
A little slant drill and all of a sudden Cuba/China are drilling oil in US waters.
Chalk up another big FU America from Obama.
Good point. I wonder what the distance limitation is on slant/horizontal drilling?
How can they argue that the supply-side doesn’t work? It’s absurd.
You could drill all over the coast of Florida and still have tourism.
There are production platforms all along the Texas coast...and there has been no adverse impact on tourism.
Indeed, it's probably enhanced the fishing -- as the platforms are virtual fish factories.
