NYMEX Crude Oil (Light) ........................121.20 5.64 NYMEX NYH RBOB Gasoline (Globex) ...... 3.0421 .1318

Don’t worry, just a little bump - $70 is just around the corner. Short traders just keep making those margin calls, mortgage the house if you have to. Fortunes await you! PO is for pansies and doomers. At $70 short some more ..... it is going back to $22 .... the world is awash with oil ........ reality has nothing to do with it, its all in those charts!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Does Thermal Depolymerization Solve the Problem of Peak Oil? (Score: 1)

I think the article is somewhat misleading in it's statement that 'i.e., the energy requirements of the process are only 15% of the energy it produces.' This sounds like more energy is created than what goes in. According to CWT's website it's really a negative energy output:

"For every 100 BTUs available in our feedstock, approximately 15-20 BTUs are needed to provide energy for the plant. The remaining BTUs will be available for sale in a converted state. "

Basically 100 BTUs go in and 85 come out as oil. It might be nice to recover oil in this way for the short-term but you can't hope to supplement current oil production with a negative return on energy input.
