Abstract: The Vanishing Frontiers in Offshore United States

By

Lawrence W. Funkhouser

Production and reserve trends indicate that imported oil will account for more than 50% of the US. supply in the early 1990's, setting the stage for another 1970's-style energy crisis. The next crisis will be potentially more serious because the possible frontier resources of the U.S. have been severely downgraded. The reasons for failure in various frontier plays will be reviewed. Remaining frontier potential will be examined.
