I just saw a report the other day, can't remember where, that stated that we have hundreds of years of supply in the Gulf but it's too deep at this time to get it.

The headline contains the word "oil." That should be good for an additional 10 cents per gallon at the pump.

A Peak Easy Oil thread! Interesting that science will provide whatever we want.

Today's drills don't stop at a couple hundred feet. They bore miles into the earth.

Would the plant and animal remains that it is said produces oil have migrated miles into the Earth? Is it likely?

Oil shortage? Don't worry, we have a back-up plan.

My father worked for Shell oil as a geologist for many years and told me back in the 1960s that there was hundreds of years of oil left and that was before a number of discoveries. He worked in exploration in Alaska, California and Utah.

In 1970, experts believed the world had 612 billion barrels of proved reserves.

To "prove" oil reserves is itself a fairly costly operation.
