Whats funny is my friend who is an economics teacher over at UND said in 4 years, ND will be the state with the highest surplus if oil prodcution keeps going the way it is. Our state doesnt really like to spend that much money so they better start or we will have way more then we need. I read this somewhere forgot where i read it though, this is some like 1/4 billion barrels of oil out there in some formation which i forgot its name haha sorry guys but 2/3 of it we cant get to but the other third will last decades upon decades with us only drilling 155 barrels per day per well.
