Trillions of dollars worth of oil found in Australian outback

[Samson]

Up to 233 billion barrels of oil has been discovered in the Australian outback that could be worth trillions of dollars, in a find that could turn the region into a new Saudi Arabia

Looks like we'll have plenty of oil for decades to come, from another friendly, English speaking, Christian nation.

Sadly for the Canadians wanting to divert their Keystone XL pipeline from the USA to China, the Aussies might be the Chinese supplier of choice. Canadians will be stuck with idiotic US regulations around the Keystone XL, which, despite the fact that pipelines cross huge sections of the USA, has fired the imaginations of Sierra Club Activists and their minions trying to revive their relevance from 1976, regardless of millions of regulations that have been emplaced since then.

The silver lining will be that companies fed-up with Moronic Anti-Fracking Wackos in the USA can export their assets and employment opportunities to Australia: But since there are few people to employ, they'll need to import talent from the USA.

"Christian" nation?
What the hell does religion have to do with oil? For that matter what does language have to do with it? Don't we have Strine-English translators?

Great, now we gotta invade Australia. It's a long ride out there...

Apparently some need to be spoon fed information slowly and carefully.

I'll assist in the digestion of the information this once; hopefully you'll catch on soon.

Religion is part of Culture.

Trade between peoples of similar cultures is easier than trade between peoples of dissimilar cultures.

Australia's Culture is similar to the USA.

Trade between the USA and Australia is easier than trade between the USA and OPEC nations.

We need to liberate the Australians from their evil dictator and bless them with democracy!

Is it?
Why?

Money plays the same in any culture.

You're actually suggesting that being Christian is a disadvantage in acquiring gasoline? Is it easier to get oil from Nigeria than from Saudi Arabia?

Btw their PM until about a week ago is an atheist. Would that be a problem?

"Hate" doesn't enter into business. And in any case all that oil, whether from Kuwait or Kookaburra or Caracas, goes on an international market. The Aussies don't get to set a price for that market any more than anyone else does.

The bottom line is that the end product costs the same whether you're Christian or Jewish or Hidu, whether you speak English or Japanese or Sanskrit. The idea of oil somehow being cheaper because it's in English or processed by Christians is absurd.

Until you can see the details of the report and how they did the calculations, it isn't worth getting excited about. All resource plays have huge numbers associated with them, until they turn on a few wells and you can establish the drainage areas and productivity on a well by well basis, it's just another maybe.

That's funny, because when I finished that course they sent me here. Said there was "work to do". I'm beginning to see what they meant.

It does though, the Iranians hate the Israelis so much they refuse to do any kind of business with them. Our government has sanctions on Iran because of our political issues and punish any company that does business with them. Plus, withdrawing our troops out of the Middle East makes it hard when we have all these assets to protect over there, move the troops to Australia and call it a day.

"Hate" doesn't enter into business.....

Perhaps not - but at least the Aussies won't use the money to fund terrorist.

But Israel isn't limited to Iran for a source, nor are we. Clearly oil exists outside Iran.

So why do we need troops in Australia, them being Christian and allegedly English speakers (though that last is a bit shaky)? Because I understand international commerce is all about who you go to church with and what language you have in common...
