"One barrel of U.S. oil produced is
one less purchased from OPEC!"
Techlabs is
establishing an oil and gas component to its portfolio of
operating companies. The Company intends to acquire the first of
several leases in Kentucky focusing on capped oil wells
abandoned in the mid 1980's when oil traded at $10.00 per barrel
and gasoline was below $1.00 per gallon.
Capped oil
wells are those that were in production previously but capped
due to the lack of commercial viability at the time of capping.
Kentucky has over 163,000 known oil wells spread throughout the state.
Most of the wells are low producers, 1-5 barrels per day or were
when they were capped in 1985. Oil now priced in the $120-$130
range now make these wells more than viable. Management
estimates that these wells are viable to the company and
break-even at $55-$60 per barrel.
