Profitability would require $80 bbl. oil.

Industry experts have lowered that figure considerably. Also, this would be a unique opportunity not to mention significant reserves.

I’ll stick with my experts who cite $80, but I’d also point out that the reserve numbers often cited (300 mm bbls.) aren’t very reliable: they are SELF-REPORTED with no independent audits, and they swelled during the brief bubble in 2008 when WTI hit $150 for two minutes.
