North Dakota Pumps Record 113 Million Barrels Of Oil, Smashing Previous Record By 30 Million

State Industrial Commission records show North Dakota pumped a record 113 million barrels of oil in 2010, smashing the previous high set a year earlier by 33 million barrels.

...

One year ago, North Dakota had an average daily drill rig count of 94. The state Industrial Commission says 169 rigs were drilling Monday.

...

This is an energy success story, and the economic impact of it is palpable in North Dakota where the state’s biggest problems are finding enough people to fill available jobs, maintaining infrastructure in the face of explosive growth and making sure the state’s politicians don’t fritter away windfall tax revenues on unnecessary growth in government.

...

But there is a lesson here for national leaders, and that lesson is what can happen when you unshackle the energy sector from unnecessary taxation and regulation it will create prosperity. Which, frankly, is true of any sort of business.


Good news - we need more of this.

So much for the rumor about the evil three huggers preventing drilling anywhere.

Thankfully so. Now we need to remove more of their influence over our resources.

Shhhhh, we'd all better be damned quite about it because sure as **** as soon the democrats find out about this they'll declare a moritorium on drilling.
