(IMO) it looks like a numbers game. They mention the number of barrels and how long it would power every bus, van, car and SUV but neglected to mention everything that consumes that 20 million barrels. Is this possible or are they just lying? - Redler bob allen wrote: To put the AREA 181 in perspective, the estimated 1.3 billion barrels of oil represent about two months supply in the US, based on current consumption of about 20 million barrels of oil per day.

HSI - Jenny Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:On Jan. 1st, the Area 181 Oil Boom Begins Its the largest, most coveted oil property in North America... and four government-authorized companies stand to make a fortune. Dear Reader, For the last two decades, most of Americas greatest oil property has been off limits. This property is known as Area 181 -- roughly six million acres of deepwater in the Gulf of Mexico.On January 1, 2007, federal leasing bans on parts of the most resource-rich part of Area 181 expire. You see, Area 181 is the most coveted trophy in the U.S. oil industry. According to The Wall Street Journal, Area 181 is prized by oil companies, because it is near wells that are already producing. And The New York Times observed that timely action in Area 181 and beyond could bring relief to the nations energy needs and perhaps lower fuel costs for consumers. Area 181 lies on the Outer Continental Shelf -- the offshore deepwater that surrounds the entire U.S. coastline. Theres enough oil there, according to the U.S. Commerce Department, to fuel every bus, van, car and SUV in the entire United States for at least the next 17 years. And enough gas, according to The Washington Post, to heat every home in the United States for the next 80 years. In Area 181 alone, the Washington Post estimates there are 1.3 billion barrels of oil and 5.8 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
