While most countries are suffering from high oil prices, they are also fuelling one of the biggest transfers of wealth in history. For the oil and gas producing state of Qatar, the cost of filling up a car has not changed at all.

CRUDE INDEPENDENCE | Documentary Film Trailer

Posted by admin on July 28th, 2009 and filed under the new american oil boom | 10 Comments »

Crude Independence is a documentary film about the heartland in the process of transplanting itself, and its new heart is pumping oil. In 2006, the United States Geological Survey estimated there to be more than 200 billion barrels of crude oil resting in a previously unreachable formation beneath western North Dakota. With the advent of new drilling technologies, oil companies from far and wide are descending on small rural towns across the state with men and machinery in tow. Director Noah Hutton takes us to the town of Stanley (population 1300), sitting atop the largest oil discovery in the history of the North American continent, and captures the change wrought by the unprecedented boom. Through revealing interviews and breathtaking imagery of the northern plains, Crude Independence is a rumination on the future of small town America—a tale of change at the hands of the global energy market and Americas unyielding thirst for oil.

North Dakota Oil Boom

Posted by admin on July 27th, 2009 and filed under the new american oil boom | 10 Comments »

The Bakken formation oil find is bringing some sorely needed funds and new opportunities to an economically depressed area.

And neither worthless politicians, nor eco-nuts can prevent the work, they cannot prevent Americans from reaching it, as in the case of off-shore oil fields.

It is creating new jobs, new opportunities, brings much needed funds to Native Americans, and the AMERICAN WORKER!

As opposed to lining the pockets of those, who would slash your throat in a heartbeat …

Realtors, Ranchers Prepare for Oil Boom

Posted by admin on July 27th, 2009 and filed under oil boom | 11 Comments »

BusinessRealtors, Ranchers Prepare for Oil BoomRealtors, Ranchers Prepare for Oil BoomThe ociated PressWith home prices dropping across the country, finding a boom town where prices are holding steady is a rarity. But these rocky hills and open farmland in North Dakota and Minnesota are bucking the national trend. (May 27)With home prices dropping across the country, finding a boom town where prices are holding steady is a rarity. But these rocky hills and open farmland in North Dakota and Minnesota are bucking the national trend. The reason? Location, location, location. A few billion barrels of oil under the surface doesn’t hurt either. The U.S Geological Survey estimates that up to 4.3 billion barrels of crude can now be extracted from these hills, which sit atop the Bakken shale formation. Until recently, extracting the oil was cost-prohibitive. But thanks to the surge in oil prices and new horizontal drilling techniques, oil is starting to make its way to the surface. And for the housing industry, that means vertical growth. [Notes:SOT Scott Louser, Minot realtor]“WE SAW, JUST TO COMPARE APPLES TO APPLES, THE FIRST QUARTER OF ‘07 VERSUS THE FIRST QUARTER OF ‘08 OUT AVERAGE PRICE WAS UP ABOUT FIVER PERCENT. IN APRIL THAT PICKED UP SUBSTANTIALLY. SO, WE ARE GOING TO SEE SOME REAL HEALTHY APPRECIATION THROUGH ‘08 AND I ALSO THINK THROUGH ‘09, JUST BECAUSE THE AMOUNT OF BUILDING THAT IS GOING TO TAKE PLACE AT THE END OF THIS YEAR THE BEGINNING OF NEXT YEAR. WE COULD SEE DOUBLE DIGIT APPRECIATION.” And while many property owners don’t own the mineral rights to their land, they do expect to see economic benefits from the boom in the form of services their land will provide to the oil companies. [Notes:Gene Harris, North Dakota rancher]“THIS WILL PROVIDE ANOTHER GENERATIONAL TURNOVER OF FAMILY FARMS AND RANCHES. BECAUSE OF THE INCREASE IN INCOME THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING TO PARTICIPATE IN.” .Even without the oil boom, realtors say the property in the region is holding its value well in the face of a national decline. Scott Louser, Minot realtor “WE HAVE CONSERVATIVE HOMEOWNERS THAT DON’T SPECULATE, THAT DON’T FLIP HOUSES, THAT DON’T BORROW ON INTEREST ONLY AND ADJUSTABLE RATE MORTGAGES WITH THE ANTICIPATION OF STRONG GROWTH IN THE FUTURE. THAT TYPE OF THING OF THING JUST HASN’T HAPPENED IN OUR MARKET.” Whether that conservative streak continues is anyone’s guess. The Petroleum Council says the North Dakota oil industry needs to hire nearly 12,000 new employees by 2010 to keep up with growth. That means new homes like these will likely be in as much demand as the oil they sit atop of. ___ ___, The ociated Press.(****END****)
