NARRATOR: The company’s name, Zion, was chosen for its numerous biblical meanings. The earliest references to Zion in the Bible refer to the Citadel of Zion on the flank of the lower eastern hill of Jerusalem, in what became known as the City of David. Later the name became associated with the higher western hill of Jerusalem, overlooking the Temple Mount. David’s Tomb and the site of the Last Supper are both located on Mount Zion. In the poetic writings, Zion becomes the equivalent of Jerusalem, the religious capital and spiritual heart of the People of Israel. The name Zion also refers to the People of Israel themselves. After their exile from the Holy Land, Zion has meant to Jews their homeland, together with Jerusalem and the Temple, in all of Israel’s ancient glory. Among Christians, the name Zion is city of God, or the heavenly Jerusalem.

Because of the Christian vision that lies at the heart of Zion Oil, founder John Brown felt that it was necessary for Zion to help give back to those in need, both in the United States and Israel.

Narrator: It might seem like a small international oil company would face a number of challenges operating in a region that often inspires fear and concern as well as a number of questions for investors and shareholders. Will the Israeli government cooperate with an American company? How will political unrest and terrorism affect the future of the project? Will the project be of interest to enough people?

Zion’s Israeli team members Philip Mandelker, Elisha Roih and Dr. Eliezer Kashai use their background and expertise to address these situations on a daily basis. Along with Glen Perry and Zion’s CEO Richard Rinberg, the Zion team utilizes their extensive experience as oil and gas professionals, close ties to government agencies, and their status as full time residents of Israel to maintain relations and fulfill all legal regulations in order for drilling and production to move ahead as planned.

Richard Rinberg: How he became involved, people of Israel, safety.

Narrator: Due to the nature and location of the Joseph Project, Zion has attracted a significant amount of media attention over the past few years. Media coverage has not just been in the United States, nor is it limited to the evangelical Christian community. Media organizations from around the world have taken an interest in Zion’s story and have shared it with their respective communities. In the United States, coverage has appeared in print and television; the Zion Oil story has been told in major newspapers such as USA Today, The Los Angeles Times and the Wall Street Journal. Articles and interviews have also appeared in magazines such as the Oil & Gas Journal and Newsweek. On Television, Zion has been profiled on ABC News Nightline, CBS Evening News, The Christian Broadcast Network, Daystar and The Trinity Broadcast Network.

International coverage has been extensive as well, including stories in Israeli newspapers and magazines such as Ha’aretz, the Jerusalem Post and Yedioth Aharonot and around the world in publications including the Times of London, the Economist and in Norwegian, Swedish and Dutch newspapers. Zion Oil has appeared in television interviews and stories around the globe, from Channel 2 news in Israel, to Reuters, Sky News and CNN International, Dutch & German television news and even coverage in Russia.

Narrator: Success of the Joseph project means something important and unique to those affected by it on every level. To the company and its shareholders success means a profitable return on the investment of time and capital. For the State of Israel, success means a much needed source of fuel and commerce and the possibility of energy independence. For those that will benefit from Zion’s charitable trusts, it will mean support and refuge in times of need. And to people of faith it will be yet another proof that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob remembers His blessings and keeps His promises to the children of Israel.

Richard Rinberg: Marriage of faith & science, meaning and success of project.

Glen Perry: success of project.

John Brown: success of project

Narrator: Whether it is the biblical prophecy that points to the blessings upon the head of Joseph, or the geological study of the structures that lie deep beneath Israel’s surface, there is no doubt that this project is driven by both the passion of true faith and the scientific mind’s desire to discover. Zion Oil & Gas is truly on a quest to uncover the mystery of what lies buried in the rocks and hidden in the scriptures. Perhaps they are one and the same.

Energy And Oil Stock Market Industry Analysis (24)

In discussing energy, I wish to bring out the following basic facts that we are experiencing now regarding the future of oil and other alternatives:

A Saudi Oil Minister once told the OPEC members, The stone age ended not because we ran out of stones.

An oil expert once said thoughtfully, The solution to high oil prices is, ironically, high oil prices.

Many experts point out that the Middle East countries are burdened by the oil curse. The rest of the world is no different. Our curse is one of addictive consumption while theirs is single-industry production. Their economies cater to our addiction. We are willing to pay, even with blood.

The dramatic rise in oil prices in recent years is mainly due to long-range demands from China and other populous emerging countries like India and Brazil. It has effectively wiped out the global oil surplus stock. That means the world is now living from day to day on just enough oil production. Any event such as a hurricane, earthquake, terrorism or maintenance shut down will push up oil prices worldwide. The big drop in oil prices since September 08 is only a short-term phenomenon due to fear of a global recession. Once this fear disappears, oil prices will climb back up again.

You can find oil all around, even under your home or your future cemetery. The problem is oil extraction and refining can only operate efficiently on a big scale located near a very large oil deposit. There exist only a handful of such deposits around the world, mostly in the Middle East. Even the North Sea is running out in the near future. So additional oil production will not be enough to ease rising prices. Only nobrainers clamor for drill baby drill!

The oil producers know about this. Have you noticed that they dont call themselves oil companies anymore? They are positioning themselves as energy companies. Even some Middle East oil countries are investing in American solar firms.

Do we have a choice regarding oil? I am afraid not, except for alternatives. Besides rising demand that cannot be met, years of burning fossil fuels have produced global warming with dire consequences. We are now being forced to move away to solar, wind, nuclear and other energy sources. The green movement is quietly taking shape. If the US does not want to assume leadership in this movement, some other countries will. Japan has taken the lead in producing hybrid cars. Germany has made great progress in solar and wind. Frances fast trains run on electricity most of which is generated by nuclear reactors. China is producing millions of electric plug-in bicycles and cheap solar panels for household roofs. Look at General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. They have failed to produce more fuel-efficient cars and have to beg the US Congress for billions of dollars of bailout.

What about bio-fuels? Ethanol is commercially ready as shown in Brazil. The important question is what is it derived from. Ethanol in Brazil is derived from sugar canes after the sugar has been extracted. It is therefore a by-product with no impact on sugar production. In America where corn production is a major industry supplying the world, part of it is diverted to ethanol production as encouraged by government subsidies. In this case, people are forced to choose between food and fuel. What a dumb idea!

Nuclear energy requires high overhead and maintenance, besides the risky disposal of waste products. There is also the safety concern expressed by local residents. Nuclear energy is only viable with strict management.

Coal is the most dirty energy source although there are huge deposits in China and America. A good prospect exists for clean coal technology. The important question is: Will the new technology consume more dirty fuels than the clean coal it is supposed to produce? What will be the net result?

Solar energy stands out as the best source for producing electricity. Every residential or commercial building can be turned into a self-sufficient electricity producer if it has a roof or enough sun exposure. This will eliminate the need for central electricity generation and transmission to end-users. When the plug-in electric cars are available, they can tap into the same solar source. That means solar energy will be indirectly produced for use in transport besides heating, lighting and other functions in buildings. The capture of solar energy depends on the development of cheaper and efficient solar cells and storage batteries. Investments in this area are quietly flowing in. Commercialization is already happening. It may take a few more years before we see a sudden explosion of solar technology.
