U.S. Fracking's Larger Implications

[Mr. H.]

How many Liberals here have actually drilled a hole in the ground.

Pony up you bastards. Face up. Buck up.

Bunch of sorry sanctimonious cock wannabies.

All reward and no risk. That's your mantra.

Pull up to the pump?

Pull up to the kelly. Swing some chain. Stab the rathole.

You make me puke, you stay-at-home whores. Fuck you.

 

[Mr. H.]

Damn, I must have been on a hell of a drunk when I posted that LOL.


Anyhow...

5 million jobs added by 2020 spurred by falling natural gas prices. Abundant, cheap natural gas- brought to you by hydraulic fracturing...

Export surge could help U.S. add 5 million jobs by 2020: study - Yahoo! Finance

BOSTON (Reuters) - Rising U.S. factory productivity, spurred by falling natural gas prices, could help the nation boost exports of products such as locomotives and factory machinery and add as many as 5 million manufacturing and support jobs by the decade's end, a new analysis found.

One recurrent problem is the sleeves used to line the well fracture, letting chemical-laced water get forced, at high pressure, by the escaping gas, into any old nearby area, including into water tables, hence poisonous, flammable tap-water.

Incorrect.

The problem of fractured sleeves isn't easy to solve, while the use of benzene and toluene and methanol and more is insane. Why would anyone want chromosome-breaking chemicals, in their water table?

They wouldn't. And because you assume benzene and touluene are normal injection chemicals, when they aren't, and that they are pumped into water tables by fracking, which they aren't unless the well design has somehow failed, you look silly.

I recommend less weed, more learning.

When you are in a hurry, to poison everybody, just so you can delay technology, which Henry Ford knew and used, all the way back, to the Model-fuckiing-T, you are deflecting, in a way, which suggests you are a dangerous, psychotic sociopath.

"Fracking," yeah, right. FUCKING UP BIG-TIME is what that shitload is.[/I]

Want to bet that you have used the products derived from fracking, sometime during your average day. Why don't you start a petition to ban the use of all products related to the use of natural gas obtained by hydraulic stimulation, see where it gets you.

Shale Gas: An American Success Story

RIGZONE - Shale Gas: An American Success Story

In Pennsylvania, Marcellus Shale development generated $11 billion in value-added economic impact in 2010, while supporting 140,000 jobs and contributing $1 billion in state and local tax revenue, he said. Nationwide, shale gas development is expected to support 1.5 million jobs, and contribute nearly $200 billion to GDP by 2015. Those benefits are expected to double by 2035.

More oil, more gas, more jobs... for America.

In North Dakota, hard to tell an oil millionaire from regular Joe - Yahoo! News

Average income in Mountrail County, the hub of the North Dakota oil production boom, roughly doubled in five years to $52,027 per person in 2010, ranking it in the richest 100 U.S. counties on that basis including New York City, and Marin, California.

The boom could be creating up to 2,000 millionaires a year in North Dakota, said Bruce Gjovig, founder of the Center for Innovation at the University of North Dakota.

Someone on TV today said we are now producing 85% of the oil we use here in the USA. I think he was wacked & I could not find confirmation online. Last year it was 55%.

I think it was on Bloomberg "Lunch Money" but not for sure as I was surfing between them CNBC & Fox Business.

 

[Mr. H.]

It may have been 85% of refined product. That w/make more sense.

 

[Mr. H.]

...the shale revolution has transformed America's petroleum industry into an engine for hydrocarbon production growth. With that additional oil and gas production, America's dependence on petroleum imports has declined. Increasingly, not only are the politicians talking about energy independence, but energy industry executives along with energy economists and consultants are also openly talking about the day when the U.S. meets all its power needs from domestic resources.

Training and jobs for new college grads.

Over 700 graduates have passed through BHP Billiton's Two-Year Foundations for Graduates Program since its inception five years ago. This program provides training for graduates working through BHP Billiton's business divisions, including petroleum, mining, and minerals.

Approximately 100 of the graduates in the program work in the company's petroleum division, but that number is expected to increase as BHP Billiton Petroleum seeks to expand its oil and gas workforce, David Nelson, vice president of human resources, told Rigzone in a recent interview.

Bless the men and women of this incredible industry for taking the risk and employing the people to get done a job that Obama is doing his damndest to prevent.

US May Soon Become World's Top Oil Producer - ABC News

U.S. oil output is surging so fast that the United States could soon overtake Saudi Arabia as the world's biggest producer.

Driven by high prices and new drilling methods, U.S. production of crude and other liquid hydrocarbons is on track to rise 7 percent this year to an average of 10.9 million barrels per day. This will be the fourth straight year of crude increases and the biggest single-year gain since 1951.

All we need is a new president to make it happen.

Romney's midterm election in 2014 will see gas prices cut in half, unemployment drop 2 points; his reelection in 2016 will have cars running on natural gas, 4% unemployment and Democrats will hold 6 to 10 Senate seats.

RIGZONE - Eagle Ford Jobs to Grow, Evolve As Play Enters Production Phase

Eagle Ford shale activity will continue to drive job creation in South Texas through 2021, with the level of experience required and types of labor demand evolving as Eagle Ford activity shifts from exploration to production, according to a recent analysis by the Institute for Economic Development at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA).

In 2011, Eagle Ford shale activity supported 38,000 jobs in 14 actively producing oil and gas counties in the Eagle Ford, mainly in the construction and extraction and office support job sectors but also in the transportation, service, business management and professional occupations, UTSA reported in its report released this month analyzing the future job growth associated with the Eagle Ford.
