A Status Update on Texas Allied Petroleum
There is no project that is too small or big for a company like Texas Allied Petroleum. When it begun in 2005, TAP operated in the sidelines, taking its time as it worked on gaining a feel of how the oil industry operated in general and how it may affect company operations. TAP also displayed early on a unique but effective combination of bold and conservative taking. Few can match this unique strategy of the company, which allowed TAP to produce more than half a million cubic feet of oil every day. As production rates of many local oil producers continue to shrink, those of TAP only goes higher and higher.
There are several reasons why Texas Allied Petroleum is able to continue to ride high on its success while others continue to sink. For one thing, the oil business is very much dependent on human resources. Although equipment and machineries do most of the work, they still have to be operated by highly skilled, qualified, and experienced individuals. If an oil company is unable to treat his workers right, they are likely to look for employment opportunities elsewhere sooner or later. In the end, the company will only have unqualified individuals on the job and that could eventually lead to its shutdown.
Such a thing will never happen to the likes of Texas Allied Petroleum, though. Although most of the articles about the company online are about the many projects it has as well as status updates on those fields, there are also a few that talk about how great it is to work for a company like TAP. The company is the best place to work for if one is looking for excitement and challenge – the type that can completely transform prospects and leads to actual resources they can tap into.
Texas Allied Petroleum today is waiting for many of its projects to reach completion date. All of them are likely to be fully operational this year and lead to a significant increase in the company’s rate of oil production. The most promising sites so far is the Coffee, County Kanasa well that’s 2,200 feet deep.

Death Toll Surges as Rescuers Scramble
By CHESTER DAWSON And KAZUHIRO SHIMAMURA
Search-and-rescue efforts recovered more bodies in hard-hit areas across a broad swath of the northeastern coast of Japan’s main island on Tuesday.

Japanese Self Defense Forces searched for victims Monday in the tsunami-racked Miyagi Prefecture in northern Japan.
Meanwhile, the nation’s humanitarian and nuclear crisis appeared to take a turn for the worse four days after a historic earthquake rocked the archipelago and shut down the world’s third-largest economy.
The latest figures from Japan’s National Police Agency showed some 2,414 people confirmed dead and 3,118 others missing.
Those numbers are expected to rise as aid workers reach more devastated areas.
Rescue workers struggled to get food and water to Japan’s ravaged northern communities on Monday as the impact of Friday’s quake continued to ripple throughout the nation.
It raised new fears about its nuclear facilities, shaking its financial markets and bringing big chunks of its economy to a halt.
The U.S. Geological Survey updated the magnitude of the earthquake to 9.0 from 8.9, which it said made the quake Japan’s largest since modern recordings began 130 years ago.
National broadcaster NHK reported that more than 450,000 people had moved to temporary shelters in the affected areas.
The death toll in Japan climbed Monday as rescues scrambled to help survivors and more than a half a million people sought temporary shelters and food aid. Meanwhile, the risk of a nuclear meltdown is rising. Eduardo Kaplan has the latest details.
Ruined Homes and Radiation

Emiko Ohta, 52, can’t bear to look at the debris that was her home in Kuji, Iwate prefecture.
A day after sowing widespread confusion by announcing—and then postponing—rolling blackouts in Tokyo and other parts of eastern Japan to conserve energy, Tokyo Electric Power Co. started the planned power outages on Tuesday morning in bedroom communities in greater Tokyo.
A second round of blackouts in other areas was set to begin later Tuesday morning.
The lack of planning was apparent in the haphazard manner in which the power outages were carried out.
The blackouts were total—even critical infrastructure such as hospitals and traffic lights weren’t spared. Many communities seemed unable to dispatch enough police or other authorities to direct traffic.
In the town of Ageo in Saitama Prefecture, live footage of major intersections taken by helicopter and broadcast on Japanese television depicted chaotic scenes during the Tuesday morning rush hour.
With no traffic lights or police to direct vehicles, large trucks and buses awkwardly alternated the right of way at a major transportation artery with groups of passenger cars, pedestrians and people on bicycles.
East Japan Railway Co. and other railway companies operated more trains in the Tokyo area than they did Monday. However, services remained well below normal levels.
Investors in Japanese markets registered their waning confidence in the Japanese economy’s ability to bounce back from the disaster.
The Nikkei Stock Average dropped 6.5% in Tuesday’s morning session.
Then, following the comments from Prime Minister Naoto Kan during the break on radiation risks, stocks plunged further. By midafternoon, the average was down 14% at 8236.95.
Rescue workers, meanwhile, tried to bring supplies to thousands of residents of towns along the northeastern coast of Japan that were among the worst-hit communities.
Survivors told the nation via television that they didn’t have power and were running out of food and water.
People atop one building had written a huge character for “water” on the roof, so it could be seen by rescue helicopters.
Information on the progress of relief efforts was sketchy.
A spokesman for Japan’s Self-Defense Forces said they were in charge only of distributing food and water to regional supply points.
He added that they didn’t know how much had reached needy communities since regional governments were supposed to take the supplies from there.
Miyoko Sugiyama, who lived a few blocks from the beach near the hard-hit city of Sendai, said she was happy to escape with her husband and 14-year-old dog.
“There were 2,700 homes” in her neighborhood, she said. “Now there are only a few left.”
U.S. military forces, meanwhile, continued to amass in and around Japan as part of Operation Tomodachi (which means “friend” in Japanese), with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit aboard three ships moving up through the Philippine Sea and toward the coast of mainland Japan. The U.S. armed forces–including the Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine Corps—have been engaged in search-and-rescue operations and resupply missions in cooperation with Japanese civilian and military relief efforts.
The 2,200 Marines and sailors of the 31st MEU, who are due to arrive Wednesday, will support elements of the Marine Expeditionary Force that already have been deployed.
“We are repositioning to be ready to support to our Japanese partners,” Col. Andrew MacMannis, commanding officer of the 31st MEU said early Tuesday. “We stand ready to help our partners in need as they work tirelessly to respond to this evolving crisis.”

Tokyo Shares End Day Down 11%

Asian shares tumbled Tuesday as Tokyo’s stock benchmark plunged 10.6% on panic selling amid worries that a possible nuclear catastrophe in Japan would further complicate and endanger the nation’s recovery from its worst earthquake on record.
Associated Press
A photographer takes a photo of a stock price board in a street Tuesday, March 15, 2011 in Tokyo, Japan.
The Nikkei Stock Average finished 10.6% lower at 8,605.15 after sliding more than 14% earlier in the day, pressured by news of explosions at Tokyo Electric Power Co.’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant’s No. 2 and No. 4 reactors, on top of previous blasts at the Nos. 1 and 3 reactors.
Coming on top of a 6.2% fall Monday, the performance is the Nikkei’s worst since its Oct. 16, 2008, drop of 11.4%, in the aftermath of the global financial crisis.
“What the world is watching right now is whether Tepco’s Fukushima nuclear power plant is going to turn into Chernobyl,” said Norihiro Fujito, senior investment strategist at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, referring to the world’s worst nuclear disaster at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in 1986 in present-day Ukraine.
Investor wealth of $364 billion—9.4% of the Tokyo stock exchange’s market capitalization—was wiped out during the session after Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan said there is a high risk of elevated radiation levels from the nuclear reactors and urged people within 30 kilometers (about 20 miles) of the plant to stay indoors. The Tokyo metropolitan government said radiation levels in the capital surged to 23 times the normal level Tuesday.
Ranking among the major losers in Tokyo, shares of Tokyo Electric Power Co. dropped 24.7%, Toshiba Corp. fell 19.5% and Fast Retailing Co. shed 17.5%.
In the futures market, the Nikkei June contract fell 820 points to close at 8,640 on the Osaka Securities Exchange, where circuit breakers were triggered during the session, prompting a temporary trading halt.
The hefty losses in Tokyo also drove declines in other Asian markets, raising concerns about a wider global market fallout.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index tumbled 2.9%, China’s Shanghai Composite lost 1.4%, Australia’s SP/ASX 200 shed 2.1%, Taiwan’s Taiex skidded 3.4% and South Korea’s Kospi gave up 2.4%, while India’s Sensex fell 0.7% in afternoon trading.
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures slumped 167 points in screen trade.
In commodities trading, April crude-oil prices shed $1.95 to $99.22 a barrel, while spot gold was at $1,415.10, down $13.70 a troy ounce.
“[The nuclear developments are] still unfolding as we trade the market,” said Ben Collett, head of Japanese equities at Louis Capital Markets. “With a 12% down-move on the Nikkei, you’ve got to sell not just the Nikkei but also the SP” and other global markets, unless there is a Japanese government-coordinated move to support markets, he said.
Other analysts said the impact on global markets was likely to be more subdued and that the fall in Tokyo stocks this week presented a buying opportunity.
“How many times in a lifetime do you see a major market drop nearly 20% in two days? Professional investors should and will look at buying opportunities at this point,” said Uwe Parpart, chief economist and Asia strategist at Cantor Fitzgerald.
Figuring among the major stock movers in the region were Chinese coal and gold miners, which retreated, tracking a fall in global oil and gold prices. China Shenhua Energy Co. dropped 2.7% and Zijin Mining Group Co. lost 3.8% in Shanghai; in Hong Kong, they gave up 2% and 3.4%, respectively.
“There is panic selling in the A-share market [in Shanghai] as investors are fretting over the reactor leaks in Japan, and further downside is likely to depend on whether the leaks in Japan can be placed under control,” said Tang Yonggang, an analyst from Hong Yuan Securities.
Shares of Ping An Insurance Group Co. of China sank 6.1% in Hong Kong on the insurer’s plan to raise $2.5 billion from a private placement.
In Sydney, shares of uranium miners and explorers extended Monday’s falls, with Energy Resources of Australia Ltd. sliding 14.3% and Paladin Energy Ltd. shedding 17.5%.
Several steel and refining stocks that had risen the previous day also retreated amid worries about the scale of Japan’s nuclear problems.
Posco fell 3.5% and S-Oil Corp. dropped 0.7% in Seoul, Bluescope Steel Ltd. declined 5.8% in Sydney, Tata Steel Ltd. slid 1.1% and Indian Oil Corp. shed 1.3% in Mumbai trade.
China Petroleum Chemical Corp. shed 2.3% in Hong Kong and 1.6% in Shanghai.
Elsewhere in the region, New Zealand’s NZX 50 gave up 1.4% and Philippine shares lost 0.6%. In afternoon trade, Singapore’s Straits Times Index gave up 2.6%, Thailand’s SET stumbled 2% and Indonesian shares retreated 1.8%.
Foreign-exchange markets saw choppy trade as Prime Minister Kan’s comments sparked a wave of selling in riskier currencies such as the Australian dollar.
The U.S. dollar dropped to a low of 81.21 yen before bouncing and was last at 81.53 yen, compared with 81.62 yen in late New York trade Monday. The euro was at 113.56 yen from 114.22 yen, and at $1.3927 from $1.3993.
The Australian dollar tumbled to 99.45 cents from its intra-day high of $1.0095.
There was also heavy selling in the Singapore dollar, the Indian rupee, the Korean won and the New Zealand dollar.
