Peak Oil is always just around the corner. Surely we’ve emptied every oil reservoir 3 times over, yes? Oil is not a fossil fuel, it’s produced by the Magma and continuously replenishes.

“Deep‐seated abiogenic origin of petroleum: From geological assessment to physical theory”
In the real world of petroleum engineering we find oil by looking in sedimentary formations, and this entire field of human endeavour, with endless and decades long impetus and effort, would be interested yet bored by the abiotic oil theory, where the earth has a creamy nuogat centre of oil, just bubbling up...... hahahaha.
I think one example of oil adjacent to basal rock has been found, in all of oil exploration ever. My brother is a petroleum geologist, we have had many and many a discussion. If reservoirs refill, and why that might be (it is debatable) it is certainly far too slow a process to help with our dilemma.
And I should say, whereas my brother sneers at the idea of abiotic oil I am not so sure. I note Titan is awash in methane and ethane, I note blobs of what appear to be 'hydrocarbons' have been spotted in interstellar space, light years across.
But in the real world of accessing the stuff, whatever its origin, we got the cleverest folk on the planet trying to figure XYZ to get more of it. And we are reaching limits on that extraction rate. Nucs or go back to horse and buggy, that is the short term (50 year) horizon.
If you aren’t even trying to understand the mechanism, and instead throw out crazed analogies (“creamy nougat of oil”) then perhaps you aren’t the expert truth-seeker and are just another tool.
Nukes are our long term solution, but we don’t need to worry about Peak Oil. If oil somehow becomes scarce, the price climbs, and those thousands of marginal producing fields become economical. There, I solved Peak Oil for you.

More oil is constantly produced by credulous nitwits, who post stuff like this online.
