Gist of the article is that oil will remain relatively plentiful and prices won't go crazy forever, although in the immediate future, increases are likely.
But a Max Max / Road Warrior scenario is not in our future.

We'll have enough oil for awhile, but refineries are becoming scarce. Until we put a cap on enviro-regs, we'll have ever-higher gas prices.

I'm still saying $28 a barrel for oil when the speculators start to bail. They can only hold the price artificially high for so long.

Flame away but I believe that oil comes from sand under pressure and not from dead animals.

I knew it all along. It's the wing-nuts that get in a tizzy ove rthis stuff. Is there cause for concern? Sure. As you siad, we are not going to die!!! There isn't going to be a peak oil shortage and massive starvation and death of the human race, as a lefty I used to know siad there would be starting the end of this decade.

Now if we could just get some new, or at least upgraded, refineries in this country we'd be in much better shape.

I figure the earth's core is one bubbling cauldron of oil. Or chewy caramel and nougat. Either way, we win.
To: Lazamataz
OH NOOS. How are we supposed to decide which "crisis" to be less scared of? Overpopulation, global warming, or oil?
It all makes me want to use a gas-powered flame thrower to start a fire with garbage, trees, and tires to use for rotisserie-cooking a herd of endangered buffalo to go with the baby seal kabobs and pan-fried flock of rare (and tasty) exotic birds with which I will feed my 35 children.

"At their peak rates later in the decade, they'll produce some 500,000 bbl. per day..."
In an article today about Thunder Horse (where it is leaning because of Dennis), I thought they said just this one platform was already pumping a million barrels a day??
To: Lazamataz
Imho, its a VERY GOOD SIGN that the Chi-Commies are trying to grab US oil companies.
It simply means that they know of more that what they are letting on PLUS they know that WE have a lot of oilfields to be exploited.
They should NOT be allowed to get a foothold in USA and we now need to get rid of those enviro-wackos so that reasonable gas prices can come back again.
I miss those days when Premium was $1.44/gallon in Florida.

no but it is costing more to find and develope. Easy pickens is over so anyway you slice it higher energy costs. Are we running out - nope but $ 30 barrel oil is long gone baring global recession.

But a Max Max / Road Warrior scenario is not in our future. It's still fun to daydream about :)

I think we will find new energy breakthroughs before we ever run out of oil. The next 100 years will produce technologies indistinguishable from magic.
