A bevy of Big Oil majors are making new commitments to developing oil and gas projects in West Africa, specifically in Senegal, Mauritania and Angola.

What's this "Big Oil" crap?
How come we never hear "Big Education" or "Big Media"?

If the earth was producing oil at the rate of the population's consumption, for billions of year, we would be miles deep in oil. Not miles deep of rock containing oil, straight oil.

Oil is not.
