    Quotesustain the current rate for 10 years of buildup of new, same as the old. Seems reasonable.

    Ten years, then as production can not be maintained, what happens?  Ten years how much time is that.

    Ten years was how long it took the US to begin ramping up oil from shale and become the world's largest oil producer, and repeak the country some half a century after the last time.

    What happens next is called the Texas ROZ. You can't ask Art about it, he'll say the same thing he said last time. And the folks who knew he was full of shit then are busy doing the same thing all over again. The cost will require a higher base price, but the last time I noticed a volume attached to it, that number was twice as large as the one I just gave you for light tight oil from shale formations. Another 100 billion.

    Let me guess, Art didn't mention that one in his video? That research stuff does come in handy on occasion. Someone should tell Art, so he can deny it doen't exist like the last time. That would be a riot in another decade.

    Quote from: K-DogTen years is the blink of an eye. 
    True. The US went from leftover has-been to world leading oil and gas producer and LNG exporter in about that long.
    Quote from: K-DogAfter which no preparations have been made.
    Says who? Maybe there are folks out there doing that thing again...research? Maybe they were talking about it 15 years ago, and Art didn't notice that either? Maybe they began experimenting with the processes for at least 8 years now? Maybe their current beef is they can't get the oil price they want? 
    Quote from: K-DogPeak thinking did pollute brains because the end will not resemble a gradual fading away.  Things will go to shit fast.
    Well, we know it'll take longer than 6 years, right? And can go to 15, because we've already been post peak oil that long as well. So what are you thinking? 20 maybe? Gives us another 14 then maybe?

    Quote from: K-DogIn ten more years the biosphere collapse will show that the human race is in overshoot beyond any doubt.
    Could be, but that doesn't require yet another peak oil involved. Humans have plenty of stuff to keep polluting the biosphere with besides just burning stuff. Plus we've got the feedback loops going now, rising oceans and whatnot.

    I think sticking with biosphere pollution and climate change is a great end times angle than peak oil stuff.

    Sorry to hear about all the lost forum data and whatnot. That always sucks.
