I'm always suspicous of "proprietary processes", but this story can be a game changer. It's much, much cheaper and cleaner than fracing - will change the face of the oil business in the western US, in my opinion.
I wonder what other surprises Utah will bring us?

By the way, does anyone remember mention here of Harrison Land Services? Has anyone looked at where they are located in conjuction with the Utah oil patch?
...not yet connecting dots here, but this makes for a better pipe dream than diamonds (which have been found in small qualtities in Colorado and Wyoming), and may make more sense than tourquise for a non-metallic target.
