If the US decides to drill in the OCS and ANWR, how much oil is that expected to bring to market? And what are the expected production rates from these places in terms of bbl / day?

    but we wont see it in the US until we elect politicians who arent whores to big oil and the auto manufacturers.

    Enough with my leftist rant back to your question

    Geologists agree that the Coastal Plain has the nation's best geologic prospects for major new onshore oil discoveries. According to the Department of Interior's 1987 resource evaluation of ANWR's Coastal Plain, there is a 95% chance that a 'super field' with 500 million barrels would be discovered. DOI also estimates that there exists a mean of 3.5 billion barrels, and a 5% chance that a large Prudhoe Bay type discovery would be made

    thats all i could find I will say the us consumes 22 million bbls a day so even if the oil companies drill and their oily wet dreams become reality
