Re: And do you know how much shale it takes to make a barrel of crude? The shale beds are mostly in Colorado, and the production of a synthetic crude from the kerogen in oil shale requires vast amounts of water in the production process. Shale oil is a non-starter given today's water situation in the West. The tar sands of Alberta will be developed long before the U.S. becomes desperate enough to build up an oil shale industry.
