Engineer Testifies Shale Oil Water Demands Are High
A mining engineer and shale oil consultant told Wesl county district court that a shale oil industry on Colorado's western slope will need about 430 000 acre feet of water annually within 5 to 10 years. Dr Well Ertl testified for objectors to a proposed Blue River South Platte water district seeking to divert western slope water east. He cited a 4 million barrel daily industry between Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction and predicted 430 000 acre feet usage in a decade. He noted synthetic fuels will likely start on the western slope due to rich oil shale deposits and said a plant could be operating within two years. He estimated a 70 000 barrel per day production increase from a base of 100 000 barrels daily.
