[Gasification] Proven oil reserves are not a measure of futuresupply of world petroleum. It is a well known fallacy in thepetroleum industry to treat them in this way, and it has had serious political consequences.

The removal of gas from coal has been achieved without mining it. There is no reason why this cannot be achieved with oil bearing shale's and sands.
In fact it should be easy to turn crude oil into hydrogen rich gas with a
?pyrolizing/gassifier process. 
It seems a pity that only diesel engines will run on modified scrap oil. I would like to run my gasolene engine on this feed stock.
How about a scrap oil gasifier?

Neat! Then at least we'll be able to pave-over the entire country!

Indeed I expect that it will be gassification that will eventualy unlocks 
oil shale, and while eco-activests talk about how there will be debris from 
oil shale opperations, if the material has gon through a gasifier, to remove

the hydrocarbons, then it should be perfect as the aggregate when making 
asphalt.
