The 'Peak Oil' Myth: New Oil Is Plentiful

A very superficial and frankly silly analysis. Yes, lots of new reserves have been found. Reserves have actually grown. The flaw in making a simplistic conclusion on that increase is the different nature of the reserves. The recent finds are deeper and/or require more complex and costly measures to exploit. This increases the time it takes to produce from the new found reserves and decreases the rate of production once they come online.
