Jansma has opened his oil field for tours, including a visit from Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman last week. State geologists say the field could contain more than 100 million barrels of oil, one of the few subjects Jansma refuses to discuss.
The estimate comes from disclosures Wolverine made at a June convention of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, said Tom Chidsey, petroleum section chief for the Utah Geological Survey.
An oil field that large would rank as one of the biggest onshore discoveries in the past 30 years.

Great news, I mean, 100 million barrels, that's all of, hmm, 5 days of US consumption. Ohh, wait, ok, move along then, nothing to see here.
