Oil is the 2nd most common liquid on Earth after water. The mantle creates it, the fields replenish, we will never run out of oil.
Rockefeller made sure that oil was considered as an “organic substance” way back in 1894 to ensure he could claim it would someday run out - making Standard Oil far more money.
How much have we used since then?
How many dinosaurs and ancient trees have died on moons with methane (hydrocarbon) atmospheres?

Are you cheerleading for the expiration of Her Thighness? Geriatric Joe Biden? Comrade Bernie?
Right on !
There were geologist working for Standard Oil, who understood oil was being manufactured proximal to Earth’s mantle, and for that reason, went so far as to recommend oil field rotation, (similar to crop rotation), as they had experiences oil cycles. Some of these began careers believing oil only to be a fossil fuel, but quickly learned they were discovering oul in deep and heated geologic formations consistently.
This has been experienced in large scale, in multiple locations, as in West Texas, the famous oil patch along energy trends throughut the gulf, central Iraq, and numerous points in Siberia, etc...
“Pressure” gets low, let it rest for a while.
Today, while still not politically correct, I have had classes where we were taught oil is a product of microbiology taking place down near or even beneath the Earth’s Mantle.
There is a shockingly large volume of water down there as well.
Rockefellers geologist were ahead of their time, or at least not so afraid of the left wing PC acedemic establishment.
I did a paper on this when studying Petroleum engineering back in the late 70's. Dinos my arse was pretty much what I concluded.
