Analyzes technical and cost factors to plan methods to recover maximum oil and gas in oil-field operations, utilizing knowledge of petroleum engineering and related technologies: Examines map of subsurface oil and gas reservoir locations to recommend placement of wells to maximize economical production from reservoir. Evaluates probable well production rate during natural or stimulated-flow production phases. Recommends supplementary processes to enhance recovery involving stimulation of flow by use of processes, such as pressurizing or heating in subsurface regions. Analyzes recommendations of reservoir engineering specialist for placement of well in oil field. Develops well drilling plan for management approval, specifying factors including drilling time, number of special operations, such as directional drilling, and testing, and material requirements and costs including well casing and drilling muds. Provides technical consultation during drilling operations to resolve problems such as bore directional change, unsatisfactory drilling rate or invasion of subsurface water in well bore. Advises substitution of drilling mud compounds or tool bits to improve drilling conditions. Inspects well to determine that final casing and tubing installations are completed. Plans oil and gas field recovery containers, piping, and treatment vessels to receive, remove contaminants, and separate oil and gas products flowing from well. Monitors production rate of gas or oil from established wells and plans rework process to correct well production, such as repacking of well bore and additional perforation of subsurface sands adjacent to well bottom.

We’re having an intellegent discusssion and this question arrose with a lot of opinions but no one had facts to back it up. So I am looking for answer with facts/statistics/webpage to back it up.
The United States has invaded a country known for oil production. Why are our gas prices so high?
*legit factual information prefered over rants and opinions, please…thanks for the help
The problem of oil supply and demand, and how that relates to gas prices, is a very complex subject which I don’t intend to get into here. However, as far as Iraq is concerned, even though that country has the second largest (or third largest, depending on how you count it) oil reserves in the world, the oil in Iraq is hugely under-produced.
At least as of a couple of years ago, Iraq had about 2300 wells, compared with a million in Texas alone, and Texas has a tiny fraction of the reserves that Iraq does. Even before the invasion of Iraq in 2003 production was very low, and it hasn’t really improved since, as a result of attacks on pipelines and other oil infrastructure. Plus, what infrastructure there is is old and creaky (see links below for more information). To bring Iraq up to even pre-war production would require much investment, and to bring the country up to full production would require a lot of time and billions of dollars. No oil company is going to invest that kind of time and money unless and until the security situation improves in Iraq.
I have been given the task of creating a newsletter for my company. We are a petroleum company and work mostly in oil and gas production. I didn’t want to title the newsletter with the name of the company like this… ________ ________ Newsletter. That seems a little lame. I want something creative that maybe plays on words used in the industry. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Several month back, President Bush firmly committed to domestic drilling as a facet of America’s energy policy and as a means of breaking our dependence on foreign oil. The left, particularly Obama, said that this would have no affect on the price of oil or gasoline. And yet within weeks, the price of oil dropped to, I believe, around $92 a barrel. The price at the pump dropped by about a dollar. ‘Experts’ in the media said that this was because of the decreased demand resulting from conservation. And yet, the demand had been dropping rather consistently over the past couple of years while price continued to rise. But let’s ignore that fact. Then, last week, the House passes an energy bill that, effectively, does nothing and provides arguably greater restrictions on domestic oil and gas production. Within days the market sees the biggest jump in the price of oil in years. Did ‘demand’ suddenly spike? Did the dollar suddenly lose 20% of it’s value? No. Both of these events had one thing in common; a commitment to independence (price drops) and a reversal of that commitment (price rises).
But will the left, and particularly Obama, learn anything from this very obvious lesson in market economics? Or will they continue to act like the three little monkeys? And if not, what does the future of America’s economy hold with such naivety, ignorance and the resulting poor judgment?
COW: The president didn’t ‘threaten’, he committed and took action to put his commitment in action. But to answer your question, yeah. That really would have been all that was needed. Ever hear of a group ‘threatening’ a boycott? They often get results, don’t they? There is such a thing as ‘market conditions’. You stand to lose your biggest customer, even just maybe, and the market reacts. That’s how markets work. That is what the left does not understand. And, again, it is this ignorance that causes me the greatest concern.
HURRICANE IKE: Gang, Ike was two weeks ago. And for days after, the price of OIL continued to DROP. The price of oil didn’t increase until AFTER the democrats passed their energy bill. Markets react quickly. But I guess they don’t have access to news in the Middle East. Maybe it takes a while for news of the hurricane to get to them. That would explain it. But I want to thank many of you for demonstrating my point.
CLOSE: Way to stay on topic, dude and in making comments that have absolutely nothing to do with my question and in responding to statements I didn’t even make. But thank you for considering the limitations of MY mind.
I have serious doubts and they’ll continue acting like the three little monkeys. Now that OPEC knows that we’re not serious about this (thanks to Pelosi and gang), they’re cutting back on production to up the prices again. Well done, Democrats. But as usual, let’s blame the Republicans.
On June 17, API and 15 labor unions announced their partnership to create the Oil and Natural Gas Industry Labor-Management Committee, an organization established to preserve and create jobs by promoting domestic oil and natural gas production. The committee plans to launch a communications effort aimed at providing information about legislation that affects the exploration and processing of oil and natural gas.

In order to increase its oil production again, the country will invite investors from abroad to make an investment in upstream and downstream oil and gas business in the country.
It would be correct to say -
… in " the " upstream and downstream oil and gas business …

Why is it so hard for exploration and production companies to find qualified employees in such a booming market?
Alberta is drawing so many of them in.
