Berman Again

Searched site and didn't see this link.  Bottom line Berman is basically accusing the major shale players of fraud (IMHO).  He even compares them to the failed banks' bad behavior in the comments.

Maybe ad nauseum, but very appropriate. Thanks.

Pretty insightful commentary on some of the flaws in Berman's analysis via the Open Choke blogsite:

Disputes the accuracy of Berman's assessment as his method of using normalized average production numbers to project EUR's is fundamentally flawed as it does not factor in the basic concept of productivity improvements over time as each O&G figures out the science of this play.

He got $10.00 worth of gas at an Exxon station once? Maybe aired up a tire?
