oil as he is with gold.

Yep. It's all about the benjamins. Always has been. He could care less about humanity. He's proven it over and over and over again.

I'm pretty sure the king thinks he will die someday. You think about it more often in your latter years.
Even more reason to make it all about the money. He want's it all. And he wants it now while he's still here.

I wonder how much of a secret kickback he got to approve this deal.

Stargate and all that bullshit..

56,000 feet deep is not accurate, not that this changes the overall point. That should read 5,600 feet.

This is also wrong: "start producing oil in 2029. The company projects it will deliver up to 10 billion barrels of oil by the end of this decade."

That should be century, not decade.

said in the sentence ending "by the end of this decade" - that's wrong, but it I don't know if they'd be estimating production more than 70 years in the future.

I did some googling. 10 billion barrels is the estimated total of the oil there. The company is predicting they'll get 80,000 barrels a day from 6 wells. That won't get them close to 10 billion by the end of the century. They'd need to get about 5x as much per day.

BP admits there could be a blowout doing as much damage as Deepwater Horizon.

Century sounded possible if it was overall really pumping it out. Thanks for the additional research, HPD

alert as I wish I were.

Expect a massive well blowout

Here in New Orleans we remember the expertise and safety of BP.

They famously produced all of the authentic B-roll for the film Deepwater Horizon if you know what I mean.
