BP Finds Oil, to heck with the smart, I want Hummer back

BP Announces Giant Oil Discovery In The Gulf Of Mexico | Press releases | BP
Quote:
BP announced today a giant oil discovery at its Tiber Prospect in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico


The well, located in Keathley Canyon block 102, approximately 250 miles (400 kilometres) south east of Houston, is in 4,132 feet (1,259 metres) of water. The Tiber well was drilled to a total depth of approximately 35,055 feet (10,685 metres) making it one of the deepest wells ever drilled by the oil and gas industry. The well found oil in multiple Lower Tertiary reservoirs. Appraisal will be required to determine the size and commerciality of the discovery.


Will this bring down the cost of Oil?

Sorry to inform you of this, but the story you posted is ficticious to say the least.

I can positively state that I, Big Panda...sometimes referred to as "BP" on SCOA, have NOT found any new oil deposits.

However, I DO have an OVER ABUNDANCE OF 'NATURAL GAS' that I would be more than happy to 'share' with all of you........













............oops, another 'sbd' slipped out.

Will this bring down the cost of Oil? No, but it'll make the stock go up.
