My comments reflect the presumption that I don't know whether oil is biologic or abiotic. I have read theories about both, and as I indicated, both of them make some sense. However, in my opinion neither theory is conclusive. Without empirical evidence I don't know what to think. To me it is logical to operate on the presumption that oil is a finite resource, at least in the short term and if proven other wise all the better.

Oil breaks down in the temperatures some claim it is being formed. It only makes sense if you don’t look at it very hard. All oil discovered is sourced from sedimentary rock and has biotic markers. If the claim of abiotic oil was true, why is it never discovered?
