Wow! Profound If True: Russian Expert Believes Supply Of Hydrocarbon Fossil Fuels Virtually “Infinite”

By P Gosselin on 20. November 2018


Recently I presented here an article on filmmaker Marijn Poels’s new documentary that featured former Princeton physicist Freeman Dyson, who stated that the theories of climate science are “very confused” and that “the models are wrong”.

But perhaps the most fascinating point the film brings up was presented at the very end: A Russian scientist believes and supports how the Earth’s supply of fossil fuels is in fact virtually endless.

The part of interest begins at 1:18:50.

The notion of fossil fuels being scarce, and thus worthy of high prices, was first initiated by the business savvy Rockefeller way back in 1892, where he paid a group of scientists to push the notion that hydrocarbons was a limited resource, and thus made it more expensive.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Most likely, but let's look at how to get to a supply you will never fully deplete. At $100/bbl, more will become available until that is depleted. At $200/bbl, other marginal reserves become economical to produce...At $500/bbl, even a 10 BOPD well is a nice bit of change. At $1K/bbl, even sketchier formations become major producers, and so on. Theoretically, there will always be some oil left, because no one will pay what it takes to get it out.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Not if it's continuously generated, as his theory states.

I never believed that oil came from dinosaurs, the idea is absurd on it's face.

The abyssal, abiotic theory of oil formation has been around for a long time.  And, it may have some merit.

I see his saying this in the same light that the amount of organic matter plants can generate from photosynthesis is virtually infinite.

The Russian scientist did not say it was infinite, so what exactly is your point?

Who is talking about dinosaurs???
Continuously generated is synonymous w/infinite and nonsense.

Early 20th Century Scientists (when there were serious Scientists rather than political frauds)
did extensive work on the Atomic Structure of the Elements, including their longevity.

Yes, but you could compare it with water on earth, which is finite, and yet the oceans are not dry.

The descriptive words used were "virtually (as if) infinite (without limit)"
and are plain and simple except, of course, for pretentious pseudo-scientists.

And I agree with his statement and his descriptive words which you imply is fantasy, as  hydrocarbons are indeed virtually infinite, for all practical purposes, just like photosynthesis.

In response to your statement, one does not have to be a scientist in order to make that claim.
