From the Havre Daily News: A new study says North Dakota's oil production could jump more than threefold by 2025 to more than 2 million barrels a day.
The
study released Wednesday by Bentek Energy LLC of Colorado also says
natural gas production could more than quintuple by 2025 in the
Williston Basin. The basin includes the Dakotas and Montana.
Natural gas is a byproduct of oil production in North Dakota, which is the nation's No. 2 oil producer behind Texas.
About
a third of the natural gas produced in North Dakota is wasted because
there aren't enough pipelines to carry it to markets.
State
Pipeline Authority director Justin Kringstad says the study estimates
future gas production and the number of facilities and pipelines needed
to process and transport the fuel.

Too bad we waste so much natural gas because of the lack of pipelines. Hmm, you think it might be a good idea to build some more natural gas pipelines?
It will put people to work and help the environment.
Nah, especially with Obama as president, it will not happen.
