Some speculate OPEC’s recent decision to keep the crude spigot flowing is the cartel’s play to smother America’s great oil boom. Keeping prices low by steadily flushing the market with crude—the thinking goes—<a title="OPEC won't stop US oil production growth" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.cnbc.com/id/102234051#." target="_blank">makes production via fracking and horizontal drilling less viable</a>, triggering a cascade of capital pullback in the oilfield.</p> <p>Sure, there’s room for worry. Oil prices have plummeted more than 30 percent over the last several months. Add in the conventional wisdom that says “tight” oil production from shale ceases to be economical once the $80 per barrel price floor is breached. Question: How low can prices go before North American unconventional investment is throttled and projects start shutting down? Follow-up: Is the conventional wisdom on price even relevant? <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/will-opec-fueled-price-crater-spell-permian-extinction-not-a-chance/#more-5215" class="more-link">Read More</a></p> </div>   <div class="entry"><h1><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/fracking-boom-driving-massive-industrialization-in-louisiana/">Fracking Boom Driving Massive Industrialization in Louisiana</a></h1> <p style="font-size:11px;margin-top:-20px;">Wednesday, September 3rd, 2014 and is filed under <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/category/new-mexico-oil-and-gas-investing/" rel="category tag">New Mexico Oil and Gas Investing</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/category/oil-and-gas-current-events/" rel="category tag">Oil and Gas Current Events</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/category/permian-basin-oil-news/" rel="category tag">Permian Basin Oil News</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/category/texas-oil-and-gas-investing/" rel="category tag">Texas Oil and Gas Investing</a></p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/fracking-boom-driving-massive-industrialization-in-louisiana/sasol-gas-to-liquids-plant-lake-charles/" rel="attachment wp-att-4535"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4535" style="border: 0px none; margin: 5px 10px;" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228im_/http://www.arescotx.com/wp-content/uploads/sasol-gas-to-liquids-plant-lake-charles-300x181.jpg" alt="Sasol Gas to Liquids Plant Lake Charles" width="300" height="181"/></a>Resource riches from Texas’ shale boom are <a title="Are we underestimating America's fracking boom?" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://online.wsj.com/articles/are-we-underestimating-americas-fracking-boom-1401234486" target="_blank">reverberating in massive, game-changing ways</a>.

Sasol’s venture may also end up as the largest single foreign investment project in U.S. history.</p> <p>Fed by gas harvested from the shale fields of Texas, the 3,034-acre energy complex—now breaking ground—will feature a $7 billion ethane cracker and a $14 billion <em><strong>gas to liquids plant</strong></em>. Operations are slated to begin in 2017 and once completed, the complex will produce 96,000 barrels of clean liquid fuels—primarily diesel—per day, and 1.5 million tons of ethylene annually. <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/fracking-boom-driving-massive-industrialization-in-louisiana/#more-4534" class="more-link">Read More</a></p> </div>   <div class="entry"><h1><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/7-reasons-to-invest-in-texas-oil/">7 Reasons to Invest in Texas Oil</a></h1> <p style="font-size:11px;margin-top:-20px;">Thursday, August 21st, 2014 and is filed under <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/category/texas-oil-and-gas-investing/" rel="category tag">Texas Oil and Gas Investing</a></p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/7-reasons-to-invest-in-texas-oil/reasons-to-invest-in-texas-oil-1/" target="_blank" rel="attachment wp-att-4429"><img class="alignleft wp-image-4429 size-medium" style="border: 0px none; margin: 5px 10px;" title="#1 Reason to Invest in Texas Oil" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228im_/http://www.arescotx.com/wp-content/uploads/reasons-to-invest-in-texas-oil-1-300x300.gif" alt="reasons-to-invest-in-texas-oil-1" width="300" height="300"/></a>As investors grow restless in today’s economic turmoil and volatile stock market, many are more willing than ever to abandon the traditional investment mainstream in search of potential high return investment opportunities with ongoing return on investment.</p> <p><a title="Horizontal Drilling" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/tag/horizontal-drilling/" target="_blank">Horizontal drilling</a> and <a title="Hydraulic Fracturing" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/tag/hydraulic-fracturing/" target="_blank">hydraulic fracturing</a> (<a title="Fracking" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150405034228/http://www.arescotx.com/tag/fracking/" target="_blank">fracking</a>) have been widely credited as the primary vehicle responsible for keeping the U.S. economy afloat during what has been dubbed “the great recession.” These technological advances have opened up shale plays in Texas that were previously considered unrecoverable because of economic considerations.
