Cuba Announces Drilling of Five Oil Wells
HAVANA TIMES, April 6 – Cuba expects to drill five oil wells in the Gulf of Mexico this summer with the participation of foreign companies, Manuel Marrero, specialist with the Ministry of Basic Industry, announced during the International Earth Sciences Convention, being held in the island’s capital. According to Marrero, it is estimated that there is a reserve of between five and nine billion barrels of crude in Cuban waters, reported IPS.
I guess that’s why the PCC clings to petroleum technology. “Five to nine billion barrels in Cuban waters” is just too juicy to resist. Meanwhile the climate heats up and the oceans degrade. It’s to be expected by capitalist pigs, but Cuba? What the heck happened the country’s great natural energy resource, the sun? It’s just too depressing for words.
