This industry will not sit on its laurels, recovery rates are being pushed to double from where they are now and my guess is they will push after that as well. Yes, that other stuff can go bye-bye.
Some years ago I posted articles on break-through gasoline formulation, cheaper, cleaner, giving higher mileage and reducing engine wear as well as breakthrough production technology for production from formations too close to the surface for traditional pumping and drilling. Unfortunately the articles were on World Net Daily, which has not maintained its archives. Recently I have starting looking at one of such breakthrough technologies again, a new and improved patent having issued last year. In the meantime the DOE has doubled down on ethanol and it appears that Trump has been misled into falling for the boondoggle of ethanol.
