The biggest find in the world?? Just a cursory look at a list yields maybe 50 larger fields. The Sugar Loaf discovery in Brazil (2007) is estimated to be 25-40 billion barrels. Nearby Tupi is estimated to be 5-8 (worldoil.com).

I don't see shipping oil using BNSF as a long-term solution, EOG is talking about it simply because they have no other option right now. "In general, on a per barrel per mile rate, pipelines are a more economical way to move crude oil. That's why we do it" (Enbridge spokesman Larry Springer). Enbridge is working to increase the capacity in its existing corridor.
