A couple of years ago I read some stuff on abiotic oil. I don't know whether it's real or mythical; but one thing I heard is that there are two groups who do not want people to believe in it: 1) Environmentalists, who do not want people to think they can use all the oil they want, and 2) oil companies, who fear that prices will drop if people believe the supply is unlimited.

That does not make any sense. Why would prices drop if people believe the supply is unlimited?

People would just use more oil, increasing demand, and prices would go up.
