BOOK DESCRIPTION

For 150 years, conventional oil and gas deposits were developed by drilling vertical wells. Supported by extensive Government research conducted in the 1970’s, the petroleum industry developed horizontal well drilling and massive hydraulic fracturing in the 80’s. Application of the new technology to unconventional shales reversed a five-decade oil production decline. Oil production in United States has returned to its prior peak rate of about 10 million barrels per day. The return to peak oil production is supported by a high level of energy security through the creation and filling the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. As told by a Government and oil industry insider, the Nation is now emerging as the world’s new swing oil producer and is well on its way to energy independence.

Miracle in American Energy

This book is a unique and honest to goodness presentation of where America has come from, where we are now, and where we could be heading. I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with the author over many years. I will attest that if you care about our nation's energy, you owe it to yourself to read this outstanding accounting. Few have the wide ranging history and perspective as does Harry Johnson. In fact, his technology development efforts for many years is one of the big reasons America has emerged as one of the world's largest producers, and miraculously America is now a major exporter of oil and gas be to the world.
