This is great, but not a blow to peak oil theory. Peak oil theory is not that we’re running out, but that, absent large investments we don’t appear ready to make, we’ll reach a peak extraction rate that will fall short of economic demand. Peak oil says “higher prices ahead”, not “no oil.”

"Most men can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it obliges them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven thread by thread into the fabric of their lives."
