PRAIRIE ROSES: To Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., and other state and federal officials who pushed for a comprehensive scientific assessment of the oil reserve potential of the Bakken Formation in North Dakota and Montana. The study by the U.S. Geological Survey was released last week, and its findings are amazing. It looks like the formation holds an estimated 3.65 billion barrels of oil, 1.85 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 148 million barrels of natural gas liquids. It�s nothing short of a world-class reserve of energy, right under North Dakota. New exploration and recovery technologies make tapping the formation economically viable. While there is plenty of drilling and pumping activity under way in parts of the Bakken, last week�s news could spur much more. And because the reserves are so large, oil and natural gas activity could be sustained for many years. It�s good news for North Dakota and good news for the nation�s energy security.

Posted by irishgirl42 on Apr 30 2008 10:57AM - I was watching Cspan the other night at 1 am , Senator Dorgan, Senator Klobeshar and Senator of Rhode Island were heading the investigation commity for the Fraudulant claims produced by Kbr and subsidiararies... they said an investigation was brought to the senate a year prior and was Quashed by the Bush administrators. They had three whistle blowers who were telling how basically the united states is being used for unfullfilled contracts , fruadulent contracts and how $1 out of every $6 of the American tax payers money is being used for a pretense of uses. I found it interestiing and I was wondering why there hasnt been any news coverage on this perticular issue?
