It's harder, but we're still finding oil in Oklahoma today. The bar has been raised on startup companies, but it can still be done.

Harold Hamm Quote
“I'm a professional geologist, an explorationist for oil. That's what I've done in my career, one that's culminated in - at least to this point - playing a part in finding the largest field in the last 40 years anywhere in the world. That's the Bakken field, which I believe will yield 24 billion barrels of oil in the decades to come, maybe more.”
