Cremation and then hunt for oil? I thought that cremation machine was neat.

Regarding the new legislation by congressman Pellegrin Castillo, (Vincho's son) and one of the few hardworking, honest and capable leaders of the DR congress, regarding oil exploration, it is a must
needed framework to allow the legal bases for foreign oil companies to invest monies into DR oil exploration.

Most of the franchises for oil exploration had already been awarded to companies, such as those owned by the Vicini group, and all areas are already taken by intermediaries, who are awaiting interest by real investors, to set their conditions.

All these previous oil exploration contracts awarded by Mineria, should be cancelled, and new public international bids conducted, and maybe some foreign oil investors would put their money where their mouth is, and invest about US$50 million in location research in a designated areas for oil.
I have also read that the quality of Dominican oil is low, with a high sulphur content, and the rigs have to drill unusually deep, making it unprofitable unless oil prices are above $100 a barrel.

But the fact of the matter is that there is oil, but exploration costs money and the rewards are complicated and difficult at this particular time. If legislation would make it, a downhill venture with certain rewards and guarantees, then maybe some smaller foreign exploration companies, such as the Brazilians, Indians or Chinese, might be induced to take the gamble.



Sex, Cremation and Oil Let's get it right

Since you liked the cremation part, I'll post another development that competes with the above device

Thanks for the info on oil. There are few people who actually know anything regarding this situation. While it's interesting that DR has been in search of oil for many years, since at least the Trujillo Era, the lack of systemic mapping and overall survey of the grounds and waters off the coast of DR may one day bring forth a surprising result, as has happened regarding our sister island Cuba.

Now for that other cremation device....


I am 100% sure that there is oil in significant quantities in either the coastline of DR, or in the interior near Azua and other places. According to Pellegrin Castillo who initiated the passing of the new hydro-carbon and petroleum law, the legal framework has to be first in place, for any foreign investors to invest money in oil exploration. The DR government could also be a joint-venture partner if we where not always so broke, and not have any funds for R & D.

RE: Petroleo en República Dominicana?
When I first read about the matter here:Germany installs prostitute street meters for sex tax, I can't really think why the government still have to do such thing . The first thing that actually came to my mind is that, is the government can't find anymore any other way to have an additional income? Prostitution has been a lawful, taxable trade in Germany since 2002. Yes, it's alarming in some ways because it could really encourage some to do it since it's legal already but in other point of view, this would make the trade a safe one for both the streetwalkers and their clients. And now the city of Bonn has set up automated hooker street meters just to collect evening sex tax. Is this now the only way for that the authority thinks to get rid of economic crisis?

Tax revenues are needed to pay for all the massive expenditures incurred by Western governments over the past several generations. So many Black Market trades and services are now being considered for tax revenue collection. Even strong calls to legalize certain drugs, mary-jane and others, are being considered. The collection box is running dry and needs sources of funding

There is oil in the DR, no doubt about it. The question remains, is there sufficient enough oil deposits to justify a multi billion dollar investment to extract this commodity and still be able to make a decent return on your money. That is the question. No one is about to throw good money to go after bad.

When purchasing a ceramic urn, one might ask about the strength of the ceramic urns - cremation urns.
