  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The 1985 Oil Production of 21 Oil Producing Non-OPEC Countries Author: Warner, A. J. Year: 1979 The purpose of this report is to forecast the 1985 production possibilities of 21 non-OPEC marginal oil producing, developing and less-developed countries (LDC), in Latin America, Africa and the Far East (including Asia), and the potential net benefit of such production to the world market. The net benefit is the quantity of oil that may be produced in excess of indigenous demand. The forecast is based on an analysis of drilling results in geological basins, and pertinent historical production and consumption trends. The extent to which production is expected to increase hinges on the status of existing fields and the quality of recent discoveries. The normal lag-time between pre-concession or pre-drilling exploration, exploration drilling, development drilling, and the installment of production facilities with ancillary transportation and marketing infrastructure, preclude any oil discovery not now undergoing development from being an important supply source in 1985. In the event national political, social and economic policies rationalize a less than maximum effort to increase production, this forecast becomes moot. The forecasts of others concerned with the future prospects of many of the same countries that are the subject of this analysis, are included for comparison Title: The 1985 Oil Production of 21 Oil Producing Non-OPEC Countries Author: Warner, A.

Year: 1979 This is an attempt to identify the factors which have affected and will continue to affect geothermal assessment and development in the state. The eight potential sites chosen for detailed analysis include: Indian Heaven KGRA, Mount St. Helens KGRA, Kennedy Hot Springs KGRA, Mount Adams PGRA (Potential Geothermal Resource Area), Mount Rainier PGRA, Mount Baker PGRA, Olympic-Sol Duc Hot Springs, and Yakima. The following information is included for each site: site data, site location and physical description, geological/geophysical description, reservoir characteristics, land ownership and leasing, geothermal development status, institutional characteristics, environmental factors, transportation and utilities, and population. A number of serious impediments to geothermal development were identified which can be solved only by legislative action at the state or federal level and/or changes in attitudes by regulatory agencies.

Year: 1978 The study showed that the Geothermal Loan Guaranty Program has had only a negligible effect on geothermal development and the response to the program was far less than expected. The streamlining of environmental regulations and leasing policies, and the granting of intangible drilling cost write-offs and depletion allowances to operators would have had a greater impact on geothermal energy development. The loan guaranty program did not promote the undertaking of any new projects that would not have been undertaken without it. The program only accelerated the pace for some development which might have commenced in the future. Included in the study are recommendations for improving the operation of the program thereby increasing its attractiveness to potential applicants; COO-4635-1 Title: Geothermal Loan Guaranty Program and its impact on geothermal exploration and development Author: Nasr, L.H.
