JF, > Jeez, let's wait 10 years. Maybe they will do it when oil is $500 a barrel and we're in a depression. Better tell whoever wrote this piece on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org > According to a survey conducted by the RAND Corporation, the cost of producing a barrel of oil at a surface retorting complex in the United States (comprising a mine, retorting plant, upgrading plant, supporting utilities, and spent shale reclamation), would be between US$70–95 ($440–600/m3, adjusted to 2005 values). ... The hypothetical unit would see a cost reduction of 35–70% after its first 500 million barrels (79×106 m3) were produced. Assuming an increase in output of 25 thousand barrels per day (4.0×103 m3/d) during each year after the start of commercial production, the costs would then be expected to decline to $35–48 per barrel ($220–300/m3) within 12 years. I mean, that was obviously written by some oil shale shyster ... Tenchusatsu
