I read that 10 barrels per day at $140. is enough to break even.

10 bpd sounds about right for most of these small wells. It’s probably breakeven, but won’t make a dent in the supply.

10 barrels is the criteria that was used to stop production and cap the well. That 10 a day is with 30 year old technology and pricing. New production methods can at least double that and what with the $100 + prices? We need to make a REALLY big deal out of this as it blows away the "why bother to drill / no results for 10 years" krap argument from the communists.

I find that hard to believe. Got a source?
