Hughes interviewed on California shale report at Kern Golden Empire

But is there 15 billion barrels of oil in the shale rock buried deep inside the Monterey?
“It’s not there. I don’t see it,” said David Hughes in an interview with 17 News in Denver back in October.
In his report, ‘Drilling California,’ Hughes zeroes in on two government reports.
