WASHINGTON, March 18 (UPI) -- Washington has given Petrobras America Inc. permission to start oil and gas production in the Gulf of Mexico, a regulator said.
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement gave Petrobras approval to use a floating production storage offloading facility at its Cascade-Chinook project in the Gulf of Mexico.
The approval marks the first time FPSO technology will be used in U.S. waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
The oil and gas project is about 165 miles off the coast of Louisiana in 8,200 feet of water. The FPSO has a production capacity of 80,000 barrels of oil and 16 million cubic feet of natural gas per day.
The BOEMRE approved the production safety system permit and a supplemental deep-water operating plan from Petrobras. The regulatory agency said it was satisfied that operations would be safe from hurricanes and other natural disasters.

And to add insult to injury, Obama, during his recent visit to Brazil announced a $2 billion loan package to Petrobras to develop Brazil's offshore oil production........promising that the US was "hoping to become Brazil's best customer".
At the same time American deepwater rigs are sitting idle in the gulf, under Obama's moratorium, which a Federal judge has overturned.........and the administration under court order has issued one new permit (before this one) for a deepwater rig.....to British Petroleum........it should be noted that BP was a major Obama campaign contributor.

Billions of dollars in potential oil revenue that could help close the federal deficit is being lost as a result of President Obama’s anti-drilling agenda.
Production in the Gulf of Mexico — which normally accounts for about 30 percent of all U.S. production — is expected to drop this year by 220,000 barrels per day, according to projections from the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

And we, the people, pay the price. (Pardon the pun.)
What garbage, Soros and the communist community organizer are. My blood boils when I see their faces.

Good point.
I don't even hear the stomping of little feet.

Let's see now, methinks there are a few dots out there just begging for someone to connect them:
George Soros and his various money-distribution organizations such as MoveOn.org spend heavily on behalf of Obama's run for the presidency.
Soros invests over $800 million for a large stake in Petrobras, the Brazilian oil company.
The U.S. arranges for the Ex-Im Bank to guarantee loans of $2 billion to Brazil for exploration of offshore oil finds.
Brazil makes a huge find right at its front door.
The U.S. shuts down virtually all drilling and exploration in the Gulf of Mexico, continues offshore bans along the East and West coasts and off the coast of Alaska.
Libya, Africa's largest oil producer, erupts into a bloody revolution against the régime of the psychotic tyrant Ghaddafi.
Obama materializes in Brazil and explains to oil executives that, "We want to help with technology and support to develop these oil reserves safely, and when you're ready to start selling, we want to be one of your best customers."
Hundreds of thousands of American workers in energy, energy-dependent, and related industries see their hopes for re-employment dashed.

Not a peep from them. Then again, this is the same Republican party that does not want to cut more than sixty billion dollars off of a deficit measured in trillions.
