We cannot drill our way out of this oil crisis. Since 2000, oil companies working in the U.S. have doubled the number of wells drilled per year.

Although increased drilling has added new oil to the nation's supply, it has not done so fast enough to offset the terminal decline of existing fields.

We are going to have to import more of our oil. Period.

As pressure to develop domestic reserves intensifies, expect conflicts over land use to escalate. This Washington Post story foreshadows some of the issues, including opposition from private landowners and environmental groups.

Quote:
The company has been stymied in the county for five years, even though Huber's geologists have said there could be half a trillion cubic feet of natural gas here, potentially worth hundreds of millions of dollars.


Americans consume about 23 trillion cubic feet of natural gas a year. The federal Energy Information Administration has described the Rockies as potentially "a Persian Gulf of natural gas." About 9 percent of the national supply now comes from coal-bed methane drilling, but that is predicted to increase sharply in the next decade.

If there is even a small chance that we can find some gas in the rockies, then we should go for it.
