Thanks for pointing out the abiotic oil theory, I will have to do more research on that!

I'm going to star and flag this thread this is great never ever thought about what you have presented it definately sounds plausable. But most people would think this especially thinking the earth is billions of years old too and thats how long it has taken for the oil to form lmao.

good point i hadn't considered. the op's theory probably does make perfect sense and legitimately so for our friends who believe the earth is 650 years old or so.

I got this from wiki:

Dr. Christoph Rühl, Chief economist of BP, repeatedly uttered strong doubts about the peak oil hypothesis:[188]

Physical peak oil, which I have no reason to accept as a valid statement either on theoretical, scientific or ideological grounds, would be insensitive to prices. (...)In fact the whole hypothesis of peak oil – which is that there is a certain amount of oil in the ground, consumed at a certain rate, and then it's finished – does not react to anything.... (Global Warming) is likely to be more of a natural limit than all these peak oil theories combined. (...) Peak oil has been predicted for 150 years. It has never happened, and it will stay this way.

You bring up a very interesting point. We need oil because everything we do relies on it. I can't type this post without oil. I can't microwave my poptart without oil. I can't drive to get my beer without oil.

Imagine if there was so much oil that it would only cost a dollar a barrel?

This is how capitalism works! They capitalize on our ignorance. They enslave us by giving us modern conveniences to play with all day long. Once we can't live without it they choke the supply chain to drive up prices.

I thought that the question was going to be "Why the Federal Government is delaying testing of the new cap and allowing the oil to flow unchecked? Another question that could be asked is "Why is the Federal Government interfering with the drilling of the relief wells?".

That is easy! This admininstration is anti American and anti White. So they naturally want to destroy as much of America as they can. They have said so themselves, are you not paying attention?

I don't think it is a malicious perversion of truth. It is more like 'that is the way I was taught it is', and 'I don't know how such could be true'. Educated people tend to gain a modicum of arrogance and haughtiness. And it has only been recently that the facts are making themselves obvious, not for a long time. Not bad people, just ill-informed. It also fits into their own religious views, dating the earth with unscientific dates that assume the world is zillions of years old. As it is with the speed of light slowing down drastically. That does not fit into their religious 'athiestic' views, therefore they choose to ignore it. Be gracious.

I have never heard that before. The Biblical view is around ten thousand I believe. Who says 650?

Peak oil has not bee around for 150 years - it is a theory that was only in the 20th century by Hubert in 1956. The theory postulates on that consumption will outstrip demand based on the discovery of new oil fields. This has proven correct.

The most telling sign that peak oil is with is is the very nature of where this oil well is being dug. It is the most extreme engineering on the earth in the pursuit of oil - why not just dig it up out of the ground if it is so abundant ?

Secondly the Alberta Tar sands are a perfect example of peak oil consequences - the greatest man made natural disaster, visible from space. The amount of energy required to obtain it is so vast that there is only a benefit if oil is above a certain price - below which it becomes unprofitable.

This price theory is the strongest theory for market manipulation and fits in extremely well with the notion of market manipulation.

Consider also that peal oil contends that oil way well remain in vast quantities, but, the energy required to extract it is more than the net benefit of the energy obtained from the oil extracted - very important. Unless you consider that this is not the purpose - rather profit is. Therefore it makes sense to expend more energy extracting oil that is received IF you are receiving profits.

Evil......

This is very difficult to follow as it is slightly incoherent. Are you saying that the earth is not in fact 4.5 billion years of age ? And if so how is that you are discrediting the entire scientific community without any evidence beyond personal assertion ?

Finally how can one have an A Theist - meaning without God - theoretical position be religious when it is specifically without religious tenants ? This is nonsensical. Atheism could be considered a considered position of logical rationale - but to assign the status of religion is self projection.

If you guys think oil hasn't hit its peak quit your jobs and come to work with me for a while and you will see how dead wrong you are easy oil is a thing of the past we drill deeper and deeper and produce less oil off of every well sometimes you luck out and hit a good seam and the next is a duster. I could explain to you all how oil is maid but I don't have the time nor the patients to explain it. Go out and do some real research talk to the guys that are in the game and I don't mean big business but the average
Joe that's out there every day. From ruffneck to service crew to plant operators then try and tell me we haven't hit peak oil!
