In this case, the oil companies would benefit, since they would naturally be the ones that one would think would do the mining or drilling or collection, however it needs to be done. They already have tremendous experience in mining, and drilling, and they have the money.

Then oil can be used for more sensible things than just burning it. I believe our existing supplies of oil would be more than sufficient for those purposes. The methane could be used to produce all of our energy needs, and also to power our autos and trucks and buses. Airplanes would probably still need oil, because I don't think that gas products (methane or Hydrogen Gas)provide enough power based on weight or volume to be practicle.
