The gas resource, as everybody knows, at Prudhoe Bay is tremendous. 22 Trillion cubic feet of recoverable gas by the AOGCC's estimate. You know, the oil production, as everybody knows, is also tremendous. 13 Billion barrels of oil have been produced so far, and we still make about 250,000 barrels of oil every day. With that oil, we produce 6 to 9 billion cubic feet of gas.
