Peak oil! We'll run out by 2020 and must install solar panels and wind turbines everywhere or else. So, just how damn many dinosaurs were there anyway?

[rigelkentaurus]

The concept that oil and gas are from dinosaurs. That science seems about as true as glowbull warming.

WooHoo! Drill baby, drill!

US Oil Boom Is Defying Expectations, Experts Say

So I guess the "Experts" are FOS, as usual.

"thanks to the emergence of hydraulic fracturing and an administration that has fostered a more conducive environment for fossil fuel development.:

Best election, best POTUS, evah!

[grey_whiskers]

Gee, if they’re so wrong about everything all the time, how come they get to be experts?

OPEC has basically been castrated, especially as the weaker members need to pump as much as they can to stay afloat.

“We can’t drill our way out of this problem” Barak Obama, May , 2011.

[OldSmaj]

So why are the damn gas prices going back up?

[dfwgator]

Unexpected!

[marron]

Remember when, was it Sarah Palin? said we could get gas prices back down below $2 a gallon, and everyone laughed?

Well, guess what. Where I am I filled my tank below $2.

They said you can’t drill your way out of an oil shortage, and we said, that’s exactly how you get out of an oil shortage. You drill, baby, drill.

Thanks rktman.

The agency reported U.S. oil production is expected to rise by 1.3 million barrels a day in 2019. While this number is lower than the record-smashing 2.1 million increase producers enjoyed in 2018, it’s more than double what the IEA initially expected to see in 2019... the U.S. is the largest international crude oil producer, with output expected to top 12 million barrels per day in 2019 and reach 12.9 million by 2020... Analysts predict the U.S. will keep blowing past its global competitors.

That's so weird, because we consumed the last of the Earth's oil 30 years ago!

[NorseViking]

I might be ok with both oil boom and solar panels.

[FLT-bird]

Drill baby Drill!

With ANWR opened up to drilling and the econazis neutered, we’re much more free to actually produce the oil we need - both economically and for national security. Production is already 50% higher than it was about a decade ago and is still set to go on rising. Beautiful.

Now we need to remove all the restrictions on offshore drilling everywhere but the western Caribbean.

[wgmalabama]

My favorite is the : it will take 20 years to drill our way out of our energy deficit. Lol. I’m sure the bank is happy that I don’t have the government attitude about my mortgage.

[AdmSmith]

The United States is expected to churn out far more oil in 2019 than what international analysts originally forecasted.

Not only oil. It seems inevitable that we are going to be awash in natural gas well into the next decade.
