Phony Oil Crisis? Check this out and see what you think...

[NobodysFool]

I was recently hunting here in Pennsylvania and stumbled upon an odd collection of a dozen Asian, Russian, and American guys hovering around an old capped oil well that once belonged to our family, and had not produced a drop in over a decade. Curious, I went up to the group just in time to see what I was told was a "technology demonstration" for a company called Hobson Secondary Oil.

The three Russian guys were from a company called Lukoil, and since I don't speak Chinese, I have no clue where the Asians were from. Anyway, the American guys wearing "HSO" jackets bolted some gadgets together and ran some wires to a truck and within a few minutes steam was hissing for more than an hour. As they were standing there waiting for something to happen, I got a crash course of "heavy crude oil recovery" from one of the technicians, and was shocked to learn that over 60% of the world's oil is still underground because it is too thick to be pumped out. According to these HSO guys, most of the this "heavy crude" is thicker than a fruitcake and some is like peanut butter - but it is all good oil and there is over 60 billion barrels of it sitting right here in America! At $80 a barrel you do the math!

Anyway, after about 2 hours they unbolted their strange machine and the pump jack started rocking, and oil started flowing - slowly at first but before sunset they were getting a good flow. The next day I check the flow meter on the wellhead, and they had pumped 80 barrels out in only 24 hours! When my grandaddy ran this well back in the 70s, it only put out 110 barrels per day!

All this made me really curious so my wife and I spent an hour on the internet and Googled this Hobson Secondary Oil company and then we realized Americans are being tricked by the oil companies and our government, about the phony "oil crisis". The only oil problem is that these greedy bastards only want to go after the easy oil that has bigger profits. If they would settle for a $35 per barrel profit (instead of $45) we would all be paying 50% less at the pumps for oil! If you don't believe this, check out HSO on the internet and see for yourself that with that nifty machine they can get most all of that heavy crude out of the ground for less than $10 per barrel!

To make matters worse, I heard these Russians talking about buying the HSO company so when the big oil giants in Houston run out of the cheaper light crude in about ten years, we'll be begging the Russians to sell us some of the heavy crude they accumulated with this new American technology. Why isn't Exxon, Esso, Sunoco, BP, and Shell using this HSO green technology (they put nothing down into the well other than high pressure and steam to melt and move the thick oil)??? You may be surprised and pissed off with the answer after you check out these links:

I think yeah, I mean it's a business. Unfortunately it's to be expected that they will do whatever to maximize profits.

But I do hope we move to cleaner stuff like solar no matter how much oil there is. . .

I think one of the main points, if not the main point, that NobodysFool is making, future pather, is:

"Americans are being tricked by the oil companies and our government, about the phony "oil crisis".

Especially "our government"

YOUR GOVERNMENT

[FRC]

I live in an oil town and am sure there has been enhanced recovery going on
here for a while now. I am not sure about this process, but there is a hot oil system that is used and and I believe there are other methods that are
employed fracing (fractuing) being one of them. However, the process you
describe sounds pretty good. Mind you this is Canada.

Well maybe but out of the two I know which one has the most incentive to maximize profits from oil. The government is just an attempt to reconcile the goals, rights, and desires of, say, a big oil ceo and someone like me . . .and of course everyone else in the country.

Clarification... Hobson Secondary Oil - May soon be owned by Lukoil?

I was talking about Uncle Sam. BTW... since putting up that original post, I did some more research and found out that Halliburton tried to buy out this Hobson Secondary Oil company last year for huge money but the Hobson family declined. I think something is in the works with the Lukoil Russians I met at that demonstration.

Also, it seems the HSO technology is the third generation of what is called "steam flooding" - a form of enhanced oil recovery, but HSO is the only company I can find that can sustain the steam injection for several hours or days. All the other steam injection systems rely on short bursts every 30-60 minutes since the others use huge boilers that must build up pressure over time and then release it down-hole. Anyway, it look pretty promising to me, but I am still pissed that the Russians and Chinese are paying more attention than Exxon!

What Ever Happened to...

In the early 1990's there was a report on CNN about someone in Reno Nevada
who came up with a way to run a vehicle on half gas and half water by mixing
in laundry detergent. I know this will work. When I was growing up, my parents
owned a trailer park and oilfield workers lived there, there was more than one fire that was a result of using the above mixture to wash oily clothes. The
inventors in Reno used an old porche and had modified the carburetor somehow. A later update on the newscast said that the inventors had sold the idea to an oil company, who were going to start using the process. So what
happened? Over the last almost twenty years half the gasoline consumed could have been saved. The oil company must have just buried it. Their usual supression strategy.

It's disingenious to imagine the rights of a big oil company CEO are any different at all from yours. As for the rights of the company he is a CEO of, I must have missed reading the Bill Of Corporate Rights, as far as I'm aware, only human being have rights. Companies can just suck that fact of life up. And they really, really need to be told so, in no uncertain terms.

Why? Because profit over any other concern as a motivator leads to nuclear power station meltdowns, oil rigs catching fire and sinking, chemical spills where tens of thousands of people die, sweat shops where the world's poorest people are exploited to make $4,000 handbags and $300 shoes and a whole bunch of really disgusting offenses and crimes against humanity wrought by an out of control industrial and economic force called "business."


People have rights, all companies have are regulations. Show me a document that says otherwise.

As a Canadian, I find US history very fascinating. In such a powerful and free market enterprise, anything is possible. Including bastardization and manipulation of the very rights, acts, and constitutional stature that is/was set forth to protect the people. The very nemesis of the truly "free world", if you will.

In the United States, the 14th amendment to the federal constitution specifies that all persons receive equal protection under the law. It was originally intended to protect former slaves, freed by the 13th amendment.

Boy did that not work out well.

The Corporation is now a person, instead of something that gets dissolved after the project is complete.

Time for the residents of the United States to force their government to work that little bastardization in both directions!

If a corporation can be a person, then that person (LLC) should be able to face imprisonment in the form of suspension of doing business, not just monetary fines. Fines are a cost of doing business and it's never ending, earth destroying, and a big part of what I feel is our worst problem.

Yet, it is right there... the very law that all corporations use to control society can legally be interpreted flip-flop - the very underlying constitutional backbone of their power could, legally (if not practically $$$) be used to stop them from such atrocity, just as it enables them.

Here is a video that put this into the perspective of a guy who spent a number of years in the confidence of the oil company’s elite.
It is rather long but I think it is well worth watching as he tells an interesting story, the world is not running out of oil and the idea that we have reached peak oil production is a lie! Basically we have more friging oil then we know what to do with, but we the sheeple are not suppose to know that. This is all about power and control over the world’s economy.

A update on Hobson Secondary Oil - Regarding Russia & China

Thanks to Debbie Khoury in Dubai, I got this link which is quite interesting. Please note the absence of big name American oil companies. Are they afraid HSO might blow their cover and expose the fraud of the fabricated oil crisis?

Is Russia cheating China out of new energy technology? - Petroleum Extraction - Zimbio

Thank you Debbie!

Lots of oil, much to be found in capped wells and also in deposits which are under protected sites and military reserves.
But maybe it is partly because people are lazy unless there is some kind of emergency or crisis.

Any how, another idea is this:
Welcome to Ammonia Fuel Network (AFN)

[Mad Scientist]

I’ve seen that site before and it does appear that they have a nice working system that will get heavy oil out of the ground efficiently. However from reading other sites it is apparent that the reason the oil companies are not falling all over themselves to get in on this technology is very simple. It is not needed! Because they know that the chart on that site that shows the location of known oil deposits around the world is wrong.

The reality according to oil company CEO’s the country with the most known oil reserves is the US. The north slope of Alaska, Gull Island, has more oil then all the mid-east countries together! And then we get into the northwestern part of the US and here again we have an equal or greater amount of oil.
We have more oil then we know what to do with but obviously this has not been widely publicized.

Naturally this begs the question why in the world would we be buying mid-east oil, from people who generally dislike us, when our own known but hidden reserves make what they have look like a drop in the bucket. The answer is simple, its money. Our economy designed to run on debit, but in the long run the system is also inherently designed to fail, at which time the “powers that be” will collect all the real tangible wealth that has been created. But don’t worry our masters will save us by introducing a new system and start the scam all over again.

But in the meantime we need someone to buy our debit thus a deal was made with the mid-east countries, if they buy would our debit we would buy their oil. But if the US dollar continues to crash (as is planed) those countries holding our IOU’s are going to become rather upset. But for the time being we need to make sure everyone keeps buying and selling oil in US dollars, even if it means we have to invade then.

Isn’t it fun being a lowly pawn in the elites world chess game?
