From today's Casey Daily Dispatch:
"The Macondo prospect, located off the coast of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico, was home to the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explosion. The oil reservoir that Macondo was supposed to tap held about 50 million barrels of recoverable oil. The world burns through 84 million barrels of oil every single day. That means the oil extracted from Macondo would have supplied global oil demand for less than 15 hours. All that effort to produce just 15 hours' worth of oil!"
