You're citing a 2008 reference to an upcoming (at that time) press release about the Bakken oil field. As far as I know the expense of extracting the oil from that field is still a problem, and I haven't seen anything recent to suggest otherwise.<br>
<br>I suspect that when the price of gasoline reaches a certain (higher) point the difficult fields will see more interest, but until that day articles like this are wishful thinking, and won't do a lot for the campaign much of the right seems to have unleashed to Bring Back the Hummer.<br>
