Move over Saudi Arabia and Alberta; North Dakota has world's largest oil field.

[Asher]

What the ****, Oerdin. I don't know what else to tell you.

There is no way, no how North Dakota has more oil than Alberta.

The highest possible end numbers are:
North Dakota: 167 billion
Alberta: 2,500 billion

The number "recoverable today" are:
North Dakota: 3.6 billion
Alberta: 175 billion

Just admit defeat already, this is pathetic. You are beyond delusional.

I think it would be highly amusing if someone made a thread trolling Asher, then went to edit the Wiki so Asher could somehow be hillariously off.

Not saying it would work or that someone should do it, but I'd laugh if it worked.

I only linked it once, because it had a nice summary and Oerdin clearly has problems reading.

This link gives the official "recoverable" number: http://www.usgs.gov/newsroom/article.asp?ID=1911
This link gives the official "total" number: http://money.netscape.cnn.com/story....92.htm&sc=1333

Both are clearly lower than Alberta's equivalents, which were already provided via my earlier StatCanada link.

And if you want to play the academically-rigorous anti-Wikipedia game, learn to spell.

Asher you are comparing one field to a whole province. It seems likely that the Dakotas will have more then one field even though this is a very large field.

Sure, it might not have to the total reserves Alberta has but getting you spitting mad is worth the time to make thread titles like this. I think I'll make some more just to get a rise out of you that way eventually you'll stop whining and go with the flow.

With the links provided, agreed.

I'm ussually pro-wikipedia, but on issues like this, wiki could be out of date.

It's not really my spelling that's bad, but my bad typing skills and that I'm bad at checking.

The majority of the field is in North Dakota. But a lot of it is also in Saskatchewan. The whole field is still nowhere NEAR being Alberta's level.

Once again you are lying. And you try to weasel out of it like it was your intention.

I've got your number, Oerdin.

But thank you for finally conceding.

You started the thread topic, I kicked your ass on it, and now you pretend like you're not interested in the topic.

Does it really bother you that I know more than you in both my field and yours?

[Ben Kenobi]

Wow.

Why is Asher so pissy that there is more oil out there?

Oil.

Alberta Oil

Dakota Oil

It's all good.
