“If kindness and comfort are, as I suspect, the results of an energy surplus, then, as the supply contracts, we could be expected to start fighting once again like cats in a sack.”

Congratulations to Joules in completing this analysis work! I only wish I had had the time to complete the similar work I was doing for comparison - but the real world intervenes unfortunately. Of course it doesn't help when a windows crash zeros all the marker collection...
Here's two scene setting videos from that time that might be of interest:
Ghawar flyover tracing from a well head to the dockside

Flyover of Ghawar from north to south, taking in the sites

[warning: Ghawar is a whole lot of nothing in the main]
Thanks for your help with this effort, Gary.
You do need a soundtrack for the video. Did you have elevation exaggeration set to max?
"Road to nowhere"?
I was just trying to get Youtube to accept the video at the time. I think I did wind up the elevation exaggeration, but its a long time ago now. Its interesting you can see the dip between Ain Dar and Shedgum on the surface as well.
I'll try and look out my colourful overlay sometime and post it, wherever its go to after the disk crash.
