   Oh yea, your right there, They say you can never recover all the oil that 
   is there through conventional pumping. There was a water flood tried in 
   one of our areas to pump water into the ground to displace what oil that
   was left in the formation into surrounding producing wells. You right.
   Cost is always an issue. That and enviromental concerns which increase
   the cost of operating a crude oil well GREATLY over just a conventional
   Natural Gas well.
