Cuba claims massive oil reserves

The state-owned Cuban oil company says the country may have more than 20bn barrels of oil in its offshore fields - more than double the previous estimate.

Cubapetroleo's exploration manager said drilling in the offshore wells would begin as early as the middle of 2009.

Such reserves would place Cuba among the top 20 oil producing nations.

Uh-oh, looks like we're going to need to add Cuba to the list of places we shouldn't import oil from. Let's see the list includes the entire Middle East, Venezuela, and Russia. Perhaps we just need a sufficient offshore operation. You know, giant rigs drilling slightly at an angle. I believe the term is slant drilling. Steal Cuba's oil, that's got to bump up our 3% of the world's oil reserves up a couple percent. I'm sure the CIA already has a plan and there are still a couple people in the backrooms there still pissed about the Bay of Pigs. I say let them commence Operation Plainview. We can drill our way out of this energy crisis.
