Nope, it will be 5 years before "first oil" and 10 years before it really starts pumping.

It probably will only just keep up with the increase in demand.

Does not matter, no new refineries, not oil shortage refinery capacity or is that out now. I can never keep up with why we pay Exxon so much.

Wait till the enviromentists to hear about this! They will do whatever they can to stop the drilling. Then they'll be the one's complaining about the price of gas.
Just wait and see.

Then I suggest those people not say a single word about oil/gas prices!
Of course measures have to be taken to try to PREVENT and spill. Wake up. Don't take things so literal, people need to use some common sense.

And screw the carribou, drill! How many have been hurt by the pipeline that exists now?

Re: New oil field found in the Gulf of Mexico

You guys are so easy!!!!! Actually I attacked the environment this weekend myself. The white wings were thick as flys in the Valley and I protected you from being attacked by some.

If I were not a whiny tree hugger, I could have shot 200. Instead took my limit, drank a few beers, cooked and had a great weekend.

Killed a few kings on Mon. but decided to head back early.

By the way how many oil wells and refineries are in NH and Nebraska. Me thinks we double the price to you freeloaders and put our price down where it belongs.

Good news is bad news. I could've guessed that.

EricKems, you should have told txwinner to not take things so 'liberal'. I wondered how long it would take one of them to start whining about the environment. I guess I really didn't need to waste my time.

The other joke is that he states it's a refinery issue and can't for the life of him figure out why he has to pay so much to Exxon. Who's stopping the building of the refineries txwinner, Hmmmmm?

12footer, instead of looking at how many "new" refineries have been built. please use you incredible knowledge to enlighten us on how many have been drastically expanded in the past 20 years.

None.. Thanks to the environmental wacko treedancers, who have banned them. They also see to it that we consume far more oil than we need, by their stand against nuke power plants.
You guys really need to reign-in your wacko fringe...They enjoyed your party.But now they're sneekin-out the back door with all your bling .

Re: New oil field found in the Gulf of Mexico

Instead of whining constantly about how bad the right is, Let's hear what good the left has done . The left spends there entire waking hours slamming the right , why? Because if they stop one of the left handed lemmings will figure it out they ALL been duped. One nation under god....... then why does the left constantly try to didvide the country with all the name calling and hood winking the public. It sure would be nice if we knocked off the child crap out and we all act like brothers......

Re: New oil field found in the Gulf of Mexico

They have finally developed the techniques to drill at the water depth needed to tap into the Gulf oilfield. If we could get that, the Wyoming/Colorado shale fields, and ANWR going, and build some more refineries, and build some more nukes, and.......who am I kidding. There is an unshaven hemp smoking female chaining herself to the Gulf of Mexico even as we speak....:'(
