Loving it, West Texas! But just think, all of that oil is valued at LESS than the money El Bozo spent on “shovel ready projects” in his ‘09 stimulus bill that simply disappeared to his cronies. Amazing. All we saw were a few dozen Obama Project signs that were put up as some potholes were repaired in a few Democrat cities. Shame on the Republicans that didn’t raise hell about such a theft from the taxpayers of this country.

There are probably all kinds of such formations all over the globe. Not all geologic formations can be conducive to oil, but many, man can and Earth is still a big planet.

The idea of peak oil now being reached is a lie.

It’s about time we told those oil countries to go pound sand - literally.

We have been drilling the Permian Basin and its formations for about 100 years, and it is still pumping more than we thought it could.

With modern technology, it is also pumping at a cost that allows profits even at $40 per barrel. Plus a bunch of natural gas and volatiles.

Add in ~4000 windmills scattered around West Texas, and one day Texas might get a reputation for energy know how.

Hopefully TxDoT can repair all the overpasses around Odessa/Midland before the next boom hits.

Kudos to the oil industry for changing our geopolitical position for the better.

These things happen when initiative is unleashed.

Take that Saudi Arabia!

We won’t have to lift a finger to get that oil if we play it right. Simply threaten Saudi Arabia that we’re going after our own oil if they don’t sell oil to us as prices we “suggest”.
