Quote from: K-Dog on May 18, 2024, 10:03 AMI understand. We discussed this before. I provided reasonably detailed research, facts, quotes, historical and temporally correct references and whatnot explaining my points rather than just being annoyed. If you recall any of the information I provided and can contradict it with reasonable detailed research, facts, quotes, historical or temporal mistakes I made, I would greatly appreciate it if you pointed it out. And I will then to recalculate my statements and analysis incorporating this new research, facts, etc etc.Quote from: TDoS on May 18, 2024, 07:14 AMSome knew that peak oil was a crock from the same data that the suckers who fell for it used. Was it becauseI am not going to argue this, but I will express my annoyance.
Quote from: K-DogHubbert described a model which described how oil would deplete. Given the data he used the model was 100% correct. Hubbert gave his talk and drew his graph.He sure did. Here is his quote talking about the US peak.
Quote from: M. King HubbertWhile we do not know exactly how much oil remains undiscovered, we do know that it is a limited supply...Furthermore, the easy discoveries have already been and only the difficult ones remain.
It is certain that the production of oil will reach one or more peaks and finally decline.
The time of this decline in the US is somewhat uncertain, yet it seems doubtful that it can be postponed any later than 1950.
There you go. Hubbert declaring US peak oil sure looks to be a-coming. How do you like the "one or more peaks" part? Pre-cognitive. The guy who came up with the peak concept folks thought meant "just A peak" knew 80 years before it happened in 2018 that just in the 21st century alone the world could have 6 claimed or occurred peak oils!
