What Will The Death Of The Great Bakken Oil Field Look Like?

``Shale oil will not allow the U.S. to become energy independent due to the fact that peak and decline of the Bakken and Eagle Ford were forecasted to take place by 2015-2017.  This was according to the work of David Hughes in his excellent report, Drilling Deeper. Unfortunately, Mr. Hughes based his forecasts at the time when the price of oil was much higher.  Thus, the peak of U.S. shale oil may occur even sooner.''
