You realize BP is "others", right?And your selfishness would destroy our country's economy.
While we subsidize Brazil drilling...and allow others to come in and take what is ours...I wonder if these Enviro-Whackos will be sorry to see the rigs sail away into the Sunset...as a once proud Republic walks into the same Sunset?
Okay, you've gone over the edge. Nice talking to you.You realize BP is "others", right?While we subsidize Brazil drilling...and allow others to come in and take what is ours...I wonder if these Enviro-Whackos will be sorry to see the rigs sail away into the Sunset...as a once proud Republic walks into the same Sunset?
Sure I do. Why stick around when you are about to be destroyed by rogue Statists that mean to take you down? Free Enterprise really bothers Statists...therefore they must destroy them by whatever means they can.
Obama is doing a damned fine job. MORE businesses will go off shore...to friendlier climes...as WE sink into a mere shadow of what we once were...
Kinda makes a Statist all warm and fuzzy...doesn't it?
So there's your answer...the environmentalists didn't force deep water drilling. The oil companies drill wherever they can find oil.From your own site, Ravi:
The group also notes that shallow-water wells in the Gulf of Mexico, once drilled, are predominantly natural gas providers -- making them less risky from an environmental point of view.

You're welcome.
WTF? Natural gas is not oil, Ravi. This is an epic fail on your behalf.

Nope Observations...I beg to differ. I am a capitalist...Free Market Republic type...But yet you seem to applaud Obama taking out industry...especially when things happen...
I suggest that it is YOU that is on the preface of falling.
U.S. Deepwater Drilling's Future - Council on Foreign RelationsThe EIA estimates "a vast majority" of projected increases in U.S. production in the near term will come from Gulf deepwater fields similar to the site of the Deepwater Horizon spill, which currently represent about 70 percent of all Gulf oil production. This share is expected to grow in the next few years. A 2009 U.S. Minerals Management Service (MMS) report forecasting production (PDF) in the Gulf of Mexico shows that as shallow-water production levels have fallen, deepwater production has taken up the slack.
What is driving the industry to pursue deepwater projects?
The upward trend in deepwater Gulf projects is mirrored around the world as oil companies look for new sources of production amid higher oil prices and growing global demand. Many older wells are experiencing production decline and new finds are often more expensive to extract and harder to refine, which some environmental and energy experts say heralds the end to cheap and easy oil (McClatchy). Production from unconventional sources such as oil sands is on the rise, and deepwater drilling is considered one of the last frontiers in oil exploration. Oil investment analyst D. Barry McKennitt said the only reason anyone is willing to drill in deepwater with the depths, temperatures, and other significant technical challenges is that other opportunities are closed. "They don't do it just for exercise," he said.
Deep Profits in Deep-Water Drilling (DO)For investors seeking a sweet spot in the oil patch, it is hard to beat the deep-water drilling companies. For the next couple of years, Diamond will benefit from rising rates and nearly full utilization. The company has retrofitted rigs coming into service at higher rates, and existing contracts are being renewed at higher rates. Supply in the industry is constricted by the $700 million price tag and three- to four-year lead times for a new rig, combined with conservative operators who have been burned in the past from adding capacity too quickly. If you are interested in investing in this sector, shares are quite volatile, meaning there should be multiple opportunities to pick up shares at a discount. The next time Diamond swoons, you might just see me in the trading pits adding to my position.
No fault of their own...well, they did choose to work in a dinosaur industry.So there's your answer...the environmentalists didn't force deep water drilling. The oil companies drill wherever they can find oil.
You're welcome.
WTF? Natural gas is not oil, Ravi. This is an epic fail on your behalf.
Dude that fail was minor in comparison to the earlier hilarity of saying boo hoo about at least 5000 oil workers losing their jobs through no fault of their own and then turning right around and accusing others of not caring about people. That has to be at least in the top5 epic fails in the history of the internet.

Ravi, if i punched you in the jaw would it break Obama's cock? I think it would.
Theoretical jobs in a dinosaur industry? So, to reiterate, the only people you care about are the ones that meet your approved conditions.... Hmmm there was a guy who thought like that once, what was his name.... Oh that's right FUCKING HITLER.

Now don't you feel a little foolish?
No fail.
Shallow well drilling just doesn't yield as much oil anymore. It has nothing to do with environmentalists. I personally would like to smack your heads together for repeating this lie...but I realize you can't help yourselves because the talking points have been issued.

You have shown nothing, no one is saying they don't have the technology for deep well drilling. Our government has closed shallow water drilling to areas where there are proven reserves.
No fail.

Interesting fact. Did you know the US is only ranked 23rd in the world when it comes to oil consumption per capita.
