Follow RT on Alaska s oil industry has seen a string of new discoveries and planned developments in recent months.
New discoveries in Alaska by an Australian independent could provide hope for bigger oil finds yet to come in the country’s National Petroleum Reserve.
Australian independent oil firm 88 Energy has been making strides in its Alaska project in recent weeks announcing an oil discovery in its Merlin-1 exploration well in the southeast National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska. Further testing will show the full extent of the discovery.
88 Energy is predicting a potential 650 million barrels of oil at Merlin-1 based on its current information. This would mean the oil-bearing geologic formation, Nanushuk, is much larger than originally thought.

There is little research to back reports of northern lights sounds so what are people hearing? By: CNN
By Terry Ward, CNN
(CNN) In the dead calm of a winter s night on a remote Canadian stretch of the Alaska Highway without another soul in sight the sound of something sizzling echoed down the MacDonald Valley, where Ryan Dickie had driven to photograph the northern lights.
It was the evening after a particularly active display of the celebrated celestial phenomenon above Dickie s home in northern British Columbia. The 36-year-old Indigenous Dene photographer and conservationist from Canada s Fort Nelson First Nation decided to go someplace far from any light pollution to shoot what he hoped would be a similarly spectacular show in the sky.
