  2. Greetings Bruce,

    Interesting BP article on US energy independence by 2030 from offshore sourcs. Interesting numbers relative to China, India, and Europe getting deeper into exports.

    Best regards,

    1. Thank you for sending this in. I think I referenced the study, that the US could be energy independent by 2030 -- the study by BP -- but this article is much more expansive. I will do a stand-alone.

      I love how it starts out: Oil and gas company BP recently released its annual Energy Outlook and many of its projections should be viewed with concern.

      "Should be viewed with concern." When I read that, the first thing I did was look to see who wrote it. Hard to tell. Comes from Yahoo news, I guess. WSJ editors would have said the report comes with lots of opportunities.
