What the hell does that mean really.

@@michaelbee8263 Think ... 🤗

absolutely agree

@@javiergutierrez0419 I have no idea. The problem with common sense is that it means something different for everyone

That was deep bro

Look at the facts. Oil discoveries peaked in the 1960s. New oil field discoveries are smaller and smaller. Why would companies spend billions to find new extraction methods unless all the cheap easy oil was already depleted? Open your eyes.

When I was a kid, they were pushing a theory called global cooling. Leonard Nimoy did a big long documentary on it.

maybe not our life time but there is only so much and that supply will run out than we can't put oil pipe in space to tap into some other planet

It will stop, guaranteed.

According to my teachers at school, we should have run out of oil 25 years ago.

Oil is forever, like a diamond, or cattails (not cartel)

"most" lol...definitely cite any one of them 🤣🤣🤣🤣

​@@bobb.6393 Oil isn't forever,based on politics.We can't get oil from Russia,and we can't rely on foreign oil incase we don't get a long and they choose to quit selling it to the U.S.

​@TheSnoeedog trust me bro 💀

eco schizophrenics tend to recycle the same bs every few decades. There were electric cars a few decades ago too and then the fad died down cause it's a dead end technology. The world will be running on oil for the next 50+ years with no issues, same thing with Coal, who's use only increases every year.

well no worries our planet will be boiled alive by the time we run out of oil, so yay i guess

man, if only these goofy scientists would realize oil is infinite, what chumps.

@@xythx yea id agree on that. but you might need to give the world a rest for a few thousand years if we are sucking more than the big ball is making. but who knows as it's just one lie after another

@@samiurrahman2255 no but hydrogen can.

@@backspaceenter8844 Not in practice. You simply cannot store enough of it in a practical sized tank. Plus, it is notorious for leaking. Just look at NASA's SLS launch.

@@flechette3782 there’s already hydrogen pumps/cars available. There’s not enough lithium or electricity to support electric cars. Hydrogen cars will be the future. Electric cars are a waste of time

@@backspaceenter8844 And those hydrogen cars can't go very far because hydrogen is not very dense. You can't carry enough of it with you. It just isn't practical. On top of that, hydrogen is VERY flammable. Much more so than gasoline.

Until we figure out how to get it easily - e.g. fracking

The oil is no more difficult to obtain this is the excuse big oil is using to justify the constant rise in prices, come on with the electric powered devices big oil has had a death grip on this planet far to long,to hell with big oil ASAP.

@@michaelmontana251 Fracking isnt easy. Its sort of our only option. Better than tarsands in terms of profit.

@@JoeRocket-sf6qs Death of the oil company is the death of modern society. We cannot power large machines used in agriculture and mining with batteries. Nearly all technology today depends on oil for its production and transportation. Even the solar technology required oil guzzling vehicles to transport it to the end consumer. The mining of raw materials for the solar panels requires oil powered machines.

@@JoeRocket-sf6qs You have a compartmentalized view mainly focusing on the negatives of the industry while not aware of how dependent we are on oil. Its the lifeline for modern society. Without it we will be flung back to the stone age with tablets and phones made of sticks and stones.

@@dazuk1969 Oh I saw the quotes Darren. I would like to see the credible evidence that shows compressed air guns are the cause of "why they beach themselves bleeding out of every orifice". It's in quotes - because its from you. I'll tell you why its not the case. Firstly - it's nowhere near the loudest sound ever produced; secondly - If it was loud enough to make them bleed out of every orifice (or even just one) they would never make it to the beach. Thirdly - there are boats that scan the area prior to using guns and yes the operation gets halted if so. I'm not suggesting that every operator complies but this documentary is so full of holes & bias it's unreal. I prefer truth so people can come to their own correct conclusions. Your sincerely, - "oil game person".

This is true. But we still have more light sweet crude than we have ever thought possible. We have chosen not to use it because of political reasons. The Guf of Mexico is so stuffed with oil it's leaking out of the sea floor. It's just oozing up threw cracks in the earth.

All the gasoline in the US comes from heavy crude, because all our refineries are heavy crude. We export all the light crude. We are producing more light crude today than at any time in history. Please get your facts straight. Furthermore, underneath the Colorado rockies is more shale than anywhere on earth.

Tell that to Guyana, second largest discovery of light sweet. Comes online in 2027.

Not as much energy as it takes to mine the raw materials for battery cars not to mention the whole new infrastructure that needs to be built to support all those battery vehicles!!!

Yes.

There's no source for your decaying plants theory. The problem with that thought is we are consuming all the plants or else feeding it to livestock. Brazilians are cutting down the Amazon rain forest so they can grow crops to feed livestock. Aquifers in California are being emptied to grow crops in the dessert.

Same here but they were talking about running out of coal in 100 years. Oil was never mentioned as though it was unlimited.

I hope you are finally getting it. The rulers of this world are lying to us. Oil is a hydro carbon and therefore a naturally occurring chemical composite within the earth crust. Crude oil is permanently self replenishing under high pressure and temperatures.

@@okonopel EXACTLY....finally someone with some common sense.

@@okonopel The Earth doesn’t replenish it’s natural oil supplies at the same rate we consume it. It literally takes 100’s millions years to form. That’s the problem...

Dexter: You clearly know absolutely nothing about oil geology. You are imagining great big empty caverns once full of oil, but now empty. That is NOT where oil is naturally located, but rather in porous rock formations of sandstone, limestone and other similar sedimentary rocks.

oh oil isnt going to run out is it it appear like magic forever

There isn't anywhere near enough arable land to grow the plants to feed our cars. We would starve ourselves and livestock to feed our cars.

@T C Sorry, not buying it. For over 50 years I have watched them claim, time and time again, that they were running out of oil. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. they magically found more after getting lots of tax write-offs and government handouts. The whole industry is just a big government-handout-sucking, tax evading scam.

@T C It all boils down to not trusting the oil industry in any way whatsoever. If an oil exectutive told me the sky was blue I'd immediately head to the window to check. When I see a report by somebody that says "we are out to stop the oil industry and we've discovered it is already dying" then I'll believe it, maybe. It needs to be dead anyway.

@T C If you equate distrust of the oil industry with flat earth etc, then you have absolutely zero room to be talking about other people's beliefs or intelligence.

@@freedapeeple4049 somebody has been lying and every country in the world believe that lie and jumped on the bandwagon of sustainable development.

@@sahitdodda5046 actually true...

The US, Europe, and world have passed peak conventional oil production. The only reason there's still fuel for your car is that alternative methods have been developed to find deeper oil, stuck in the cracks of rock formations, as well as deep undersea oil. Eventually, the height of technological advancement will be reached, and oil will be exhausted. I expect oil prices to rise drastically in the next two decades, with oil being a rare fuel for cars by the end of the century.

@@Jake-rs9nq That is a complete lie. We are not even close to peak in the US. Where did you get that garbage, certainly not from the American Petroleum Institute. Stop with your garbage.

according to BP we have 47 years of oil

@@flaviopalmiro Fake News. Check with the American Petroleum Institute API and they will disagree with that. I don't believe any credible source from BP said that. I believe we have 200 years plus.

@@richardallison8745 I have not found any data from API regarding that. From EIA US Energy Information Admnistration I have found that proven reserves of crude oil is 38 billion barrels. Without imports, that gives around 6 years of oil. I believe the US will import more in a near future.

Right..? Whatever we do though -- we better not use that stuff with a MILLION TIMES the energy density which doesn't require you to extract the waste from the atmosphere (aka nuclear) bc, then you'd HAVE THE WASTE. (See? Smart, eh?) ...

The cracks created by fracking are very small and done thousands of meters below the surface. Earthquakes release energy built up by immense tectonic forces that humanity is not able to replicate.

Earthquake increase is already happening.😮

yes all engines suck in so much compared to animals, therefore its out of natural balance

Yes. Maybe we have more oil to burn than oxigen to oxidize. Problem.

@@bittasweetsymphony726 nature tries to restablish the balance because engines now behave in atmosphere like eruptions in the past so plants and algae will try to produce more the few oxigen there is and the more carbon dioxide there is in atmosphere. But there are tresholds that must be avoided.

You smoke good stuff. CO2 makes up for 0.04% of the air composition. Even a 100-fold increase won't affect much.

The world is already turning to fascism as a way to strong arm our way out of the growing crises worldwide... speeding the arrival of that dystopian future.

Yeah, I suspect that the gas companies are just banking on multiple things, two for example: end of easy oil and a switch to electrical cars - despite the fact that they use a lot of plastics, they are long term products not consumables like oil.

@@arcanondrum6543 those people in industry are scamming you 😀 on the pretext of this scam they increase the oil prices .

@@exploreandunravel5773 Well, you don't have to tell me that Oil Companies are evil. Trouble is; the OIL Companies are not the one's telling us.

@Harold Bates Have you bothered checking well production figures from the mid 70s up until now? US oil production did indeed peak in the mid 70s and started a declining trend that's still very real today. Check the current production figures for the wells that were doing great back in the 70s (the ones that are still active, that is), see if you can spot the trend. Now, what happened in 2010? The fracking fever generated a new peak in production, which surpassed that of the 1970s. However, keep in mind that fracking is only viable in the short term. It is known that fracking operations decline in production, rather quickly and abruptly. How long do you reckon the fracking peak will last? How long until production levels fall back down, to values consistent with known depletion rates? Expecting unlimited (and profitable) oil extraction is like draining water from a lake faster than it can be replenished: it'll eventually "dry up". Now, let's assume for a moment that these Russian scientists are correct in their hypothesis that oil is naturally created in the mantle... so what? If the replenishment process takes too long (centuries, millennia or longer), it's no use to humans. If the replenishment process can only take place in specific places, under specific conditions, it still won't cut it. Do you think these Austrians would be going through the trouble of digging 6km and watering down their well to 90+% if they had an alternative? 🤣 Do you think companies like Shell would be prospecting oceanic and arctic wells if there were easier/cheaper options available? 🤣 What I see here is an entire industry gone mad with desperation, after coming to grips with the fact that the profitability of their existing wells has a definite expiration date.

They need a reason to raise the price.

Also the world produces more oil ... its not old dinosaurs

Also important not to dissolve parts of my car or my guttering, thanks.

After 150yrs of using crude oil , it still bubbles to the surface on its own at the tar-pits (around the world) so,,,,,, definitely NOT old dinosaurs (dinosaurs are found surrounded by 4000yr old material) . Just don’t use it faster than the re-fresh rate. Specific Fungus + heat + moisture = crude oil

Before cars, oil was used for kerosene, to light lamps and cities, that is until electric lights and power generation came into being. Then the internal combustion engine was invented, and a new use for the oil was created, much to Rockefeller's delight. Gasoline is created as a byproduct of refining oil to kerosene, so they didn't really know what to do with it, except burn it off. The very first cars were electric, but that was abandoned to use the ICE powered by gasoline. Side note; The Teamsters were the guys that used mule drawn wagons to transport the oil from well to refinery. It was the only aspect of the business that Rockefeller was unable to buy up and take over.

@@jamespardue3055 Nah, they were using crude for other stuff as well even early in the day. Check out Oil City in Pennsylvania.

Most countries do that already by putting heavy taxes on solar cells and windmills and requiring you to sell your exes power back to the main grid at a laughable price so they can resell it for a large profit. Governments don´t want anything green unless its cash.

Your right. We can pick solar panels off trees because that's how they are made.

it, the sun, didn't shine on texas in the deep freeze in february of 2020, where some solar panels were needed to supply electricity for heating. oklahoma used our coal generators to make electricity, thanks to our Republican Governer Kevin Stitt...coal saved our _____....

They do charge us. It’s called solar panels, batteries for solar panels etc, and then in some countries there’s tax on what your solar panels produce. 🥸

It was not an explosion, in the combustion sense, but a release of internal pressure, nothing remotetly predictable, that far below the surface of the gulf waters already under pressure, no diver can survive. Engineers must always endure punishing criticism when things go wrong, in contrast to politicians in charge saved by 'self legislated immunity'. Too bad some inside trading ones like pelosi weren't sitting on a saddle on top of fat man, best engineering feat of implosion synchronization.

@@demoncloud6147 At least both of those were designed to explode.

The Horizon was fine until a Navy Sub snooping around bumped into the Wellhead and caused the spill. Then blame it on another oil company. Oil is still washing up on the shore's year later.

haha! welcome to the world

No we aren't. America got zero oil out of all those wars. America restricts supply to keep the price high.

@@frankytalks I think they were implying more recent events like Iraq invasion by US and US-Iran tense relations. But yes, you are right that the CIA and MI6 launched Operation Ajax to overthrow Mossadegh, however it was at the behest of British Petroleum and not US oil companies. Likewise, US oil companies got very little out of 2003 Iraqi invasion. Look up who ended up with the contracts - it's not US companies for the most part.

I had to rewind i was like wait this guy is a GANGSTER for saying that. "we need iraq and iran is what they mean". so true.

The same with diamonds. They are relatively common but the DeBeers have a lock on the mining so most of those diamonds are held back to keep prices high. People are slowly realizing that and with diamond stimulants becoming more and more difficult to tell from the real thing except by experts. And synthetic diamonds are slowly being made more affordable, no need to make DeBeers wealthier.

Yes and no, the problem is we have to keep going deeper and deeper/farther and farther. If your oil supply is continually reliant on major technological advancements like shale and tar sands, you have a real problem.

yeah, it was in the news last year right cutting back productions because of oversupply?

Oil prices are controlled by a muslim called - Mohammed Barkindo, who is the CEO of Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) .. ..FEEL FREE TO ACTUALLY LOOK IT UP..

@@letsbehonest4221 OPEC doesn't control prices, Putin is the one with the most flexible supply, and the country that is most capable of under producing or over producing on a whim.

Yup!

If the rest of the world ran out they would attack Canada. When it happens no country will be safe from an attack if they have oil and aren't sharing.

That's assuming the US doesn't annex Canada the minute it runs out itself.

That oil isn't normal oil,that oil is tar oil which needs to be mined and not drilled for.That oil needs to be mixed with fresh water to send it down the pipes.It's extremely toxic.

That's what catalytic converters do. Cummins diesel engines have designed converters so the exhaust is cleaner than the air was going in. Using lead free gas alone has cut the pollution too. Oil refineries/factoryies were retrofitted with filters back in 2010 as part of the Paris Agreement to reduce CO2 emissions. What I'll never understand is why China and India have until 2030 to reduce their emissions under the Paris Agreement. And India flat out said they'll continue to use coal as a energy source.

@@stevenbryant4718 Went up because of Belarus also blockages due to pandemic the same as food prices. Oil prices are set by many things like above ground oil on the quarter, politics and subsidies. Oil production obviously never stops but it will run out in this century and instead we need to grow materials instead of taking them from oil which will be impossible because by 2035 we will be 2oC above preindustrial average temps and so most farmland will be dustbowls and forests will have burned down leading to desertification.

Using semis for freight was insane, trains are much more fuel-efficient, semis and their trailers also use lots of oil for tires. Also insane was development of shopping malls that replaced local (walking distance) stores, same goes for public schools and all things associated with all that "distribution". But even more insane is UPS and FedEx delivering small packages to fat/lazy suburbanites that can't plan long enough ahead to "go shopping" once a week. BTW: 80 million barrels would be over 320 million gallons, which is (about) 1 gallon per day per person - I use about 5 gallons per day (100 mile round trip to work) - would not bother me to use "light-rail"

What oil reserve is that ?

Alberta does not have any such reserve.

@@nukkaza4863 These are the Alberta oil areas whose fields together contain a volume of oil equivalent to 1.5 - 1.7 trillion barrels. Of this total, only 170 billion barrels are viable with today's technology for extraction in terms of economic gain for investors, ie this still leaves out 1.33 trillion barrels of oil contained in the tar sands. We can also mention that the US has an estimated 4 trillion barrels of oil contained in shale formations spread across the continental part of the country but only a small fraction of these 4 trillion barrels is viable for extraction in economic terms. There is a lot of oil in the subsoil of the Arctic Ocean that has not even been touched and that can reach a total reserve equivalent to 800 billion barrels. The US Geological Survey itself indicated in 2001 that the Greenland Sea alone may contain something around 100 billion barrels of oil.

Yah I know about the tar sands but the guys said Alberta has a reserve that he not talking about the tar sands, so what oil reserve that aren’t sands is he referring too

i'm not an expert, but I would bet that increased temperatures caused by the release of carbon through burning of carbon based fuels has led to more collapse/depression of land as soils dry out. Not to mention the potential consequences of rising sea levels due to loss of ice. Bringing higher tides and more erosion.
