It has long been Americas energy policy to pump the cheap oil of the world dry until we had to develop our own reserves. And FWIW, the cheap oil locations will fill back up if left alone for a hundred years. That's how the molten earth core works. It's a giant distillery, which precipitates the long chain hydrocarbons as they cool inside cavernous mantle formations.

When the earth's molten inner core begins to cool, that's when oil reserves will vanish.

My pet theory is, if you drill deep enough ANYWHERE, you will strike oil.........

You are living in a fantasy world.

The temperatures and pressures at the levels of molten rock break down the long-chain hydrocarbons, they don’t form them. We do this every day in most of our refineries.

Wishing won’t make the physics and chemistry run backwards.

abiotic oil theories have produced cash from gullible investors and few countries, but has never been a source for commercial oil production.

Every wonder how that deep-earth theory matched the fact that all the world’s oil fields are sourced from sedimentary basins? And places like Hawaii where the crust has been pushed up from underneath has no oil production?
