It's time to take back our Country from the enviromentalists and the socialists.

skippy delepepperskippy delepepperOld Faithful
As oil spirals towards $200 a barrel and as Obama calls for more corn for fuel. We have got to bring this country back to reality and get these Bozos out of office. 2010 was a start but if do not open up our own resorces in this country and off our shores, The Great Depression is going to look like a cake walk.
We have abundant natural resources, including oil, that we can't touch because the librals have bullied thier agenda across this Country.
They are experts in seeking out libral judges that make-up thier own laws as they go. It is redicules that our country is brought to it's knees by a bunch of small middle eastern countries. We need to start sinking drills in all these locked up lands. My son works in the oil fields in North Dakota. He tells me that most of the oil rich lands are off limits. If we had more fuels produced in this Country we would have more revenue thru taxes. whether it be Coal, Uranium, Oil, Oil Shale, Natual Gas whatever. Let's start seeking these resourses now so we don't have to worry about these small countries unstablilities. We have got to be Independant! Please vote for energy wise canidates in all the up-coming elections. Let's vote for America.

Let's start now to save our future.

Oh Betrnun,

you may want to pay higher prices for everything, food, fuel, everything incuding
gov't. But I need my money. And as far as those leases, there useless. No oil not squat. So when we get to $5 a Gallon I'll try not to say I told ya so. But I told ya so.

If, you are speaking of the leased acreage in the gulf, the reason for not drilling was explained when the oil companies testified before Congress.

There are only so many drill rigs available. The companies must decide how to deploy their assets. The most promising sites come first. There were only about 50 rigs in the gulf. As Ken Salazar has stopped most permits, the rigs are going to west Africa and Brazil. I wonder where the five new sites drilled off Cuba came from.

That is fine insofar as deepwater rigs go, but there are many, many leased tracts that are on dry public land or in very shallow water and that can be exploited with conventional rigs, of which there are plenty.

Sorry, as to the shallow water, NO! There are more than 50, but even there, the most important must be given first priority. Please relate how many shallow depth rigs are sitting around unused for acreage for which permits are active.

I can tell you really understand leasing, exploration, and development.

I sure you know that if one were to lease a federal tract, the process of exploration, or testing for production potential, could take several years. And I'm sure your aware that the exploration usually eliminates a very large proportion of the lease as viable for development. And in your experience I'm sure you found that production drilling proved that another large chunk of the lease first thought to be productive is not. Then, after you recovered the resource from the productive wells for a period, some become depleted, and no longer produce. And now a very large percentage of your original lease is sitting idle.
B beternUOld Faithful
Yes, "after you recovered the resource." And in recovering that resource, you made MONEY by selling that resource. My question is WHY, after paying for mineral leases on scads of land, the oil and gas companies have so frequently failed to go through the process you just described in order to "recover the resource" there. These captains of industry did not buy those leases without some expectation of finding something of value there Is it just possible that their intent was to control those lands and prevent competitors from drilling there? Things are not as simple as you would make them.
Winston Niles RumfoordWinston Niles RumfoordPost Master
I'm sure that, being as familiar as you are with the industry, that when a "lease rush" occurs in an area, companies throw millions into leasing everything in the vicinity, most of which turns out to be non-productive. And you know that even if it were released to the lease owner, no one else is likely to try and produce it.

Quit hiding all these industry secrets from us!

Why? You planning to drill? If so, here is a web link to lots of companies that are ready to lease rigs to you:

And here is THE industry source concerning rigs and availablilty. You should be clever enough to figure it out for yourself.

It's time to steer this back to my original discussion, not that the shallow drilling isn't a factor of this discussion. It's only one part of the main discussion. Is there enough shallow
drill rigs or not is not the main point. The leases(offshore) are not going to solve our problems whether they would produce oil or not.
We need to get serious about energy for America,
produced by America. We have an abundence of natural resourses coal, oil shale, oil, natural gas, uranium, you name it. We can't continue to pull our covers over our heads every time there
is a problem somewhere else in the world. If we
could start now we could be totaly energy independant in 10 years. I'm not saying drill in the Grand Canyon but we have so many off-limit lands for no other reason than continued law suites. Not only could we become energy independant, we could whittle down our debt in no time with the extra in taxes collected from states and the federal gov't. on oil exc...
If we could only open a small amount of land at Anwar in Alaska it would greatly help our economy and national debt. Please think about these things.

Keep Marching to Energy Independance,
Skippy Cool

But,, not for the USA. Read your hyperlinks before posting.


"Petroleos Mexicanos, Latin America’s largest oil producer, plans to operate “around 40” shallow- water drilling rigs in the Gulf of Mexico as it aims to boost annual output for the first time in seven years.

The Mexico City-based company will lease 15 more jack-up rigs and renew contracts to operate offshore drilling equipment in the Gulf of Mexico, said Carlos Morales, head of production and exploration at Pemex. Jack-ups are units with retractable legs that extend as much as 400 feet to the sea floor."

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/...to-40-this-year.html

This site shows land and off shore, without differentiation, which proves nothing.

It is you, in terventor, who did not adequately study the contwent of what I posted. It says that:

"Since 1940 the highest weekly US rig count was 4,530 recorded on December 28, 1981. The lowest rig count of 488 was recorded on April 23, 1999. In Canada the highest weekly rig count of 718 was recorded on February 17,2006. The lowest weekly rotary rig count of 29 was recorded on April 24,1992."

Anyone who knows anything about the industry knows that the vast majority of these are not deepwater rigs.

Take a look at the graphs provided, which show available rigs in all categories of drilling:
