In the last couple weeks, oil prices have spiraled out of control; some places in the United States saw more than $4 per gallon gasoline before the Libyan tensions eased.? The Middle East is a powder keg of political strife ready to explode at any moment.? Given that this region is the main supplier of oil, it's just a matter of time before supply fear disruptions hit the newswires again sending oil on another surge higher.? Wouldn't it be great if we could produce enough oil domestically as not to worry about what happens in the Middle East?? Better still would be to find a way to profit from domestic oil exploration, production and sales.

Well, our focus company today, Delta Petroleum Corp. (Nasdaq: DPTR) fills this critical need and is on the move higher.? Let's take a closer look.

As of December 31, 2009, the company's proved reserves were comprised of approximately 126.7 billion cubic feet of natural gas, and 4.5 Mmbbls of crude oil.

Delta! Petrole um just reported third-quarter net income of $13.9 million; this is an incredible improvement over the $96.8 million loss same time last year.?
