Razor, what do you say we hook Oakley up with Statoil to redesign these goggles? <g>

Who knows, maybe you and Big Dog will be drilling new wells with a joystick in your living rooms. ;o}

This site is utterly incredible for us "investor types" to actually "eyeball" some of the new technology at work on actual drilling/production sites around the world.

Do you know of any sites that have published autocad files on semi submersibles, jackups, and the like? I have a software program that takes autocad files, rebuilds them, and will allow one to place them in photo realistic 3d landscapes. You can then publish the whole magilla via a vr browser plug-in on the web. IMO, the deep water oil story is more incredible than anything Jules Verne ever conceived in his wildest dreams. Imo this story is not being told in a compelling enough way to the public. Maybe Bullsky can make some buzz?

Imo the oil biz needs to "go HollyWood" more than it currently is. The engineer to showman ratio is way to high. <g>
