The author draws on information held in oil industry\ndatasets that are not widely available outside of the specialist literature,\nand describes a number of methods that have been successfully used to predict\noil peaks. In contrast to the widely-held view that ‘all oil forecasts are\nwrong’, these methods correctly predicted the current peak in global\nconventional oil production. Current oil forecasts are then compared to\nevaluate the expected dates for regional and global oil peaks for conventional\noil, all-oils, and all-liquids. The dates of global peaks in the production of\nall-oil and all-liquids appear to be reasonably soon, while the oil price that\nis needed to support these global production levels continues to rise. The\nworld faces serious constraints in its oil supply, which accounts for about\none-third of total world energy use, and over 90% of the fuel used for\ntransportation. Readers of this book will gain a thorough understanding of the\ncritical, but poorly understood, phenomenon of peak oil that has already had\nsignificant impacts on society in terms of high oil prices, and which will\nplace increasing constraints on mankind’s supply of energy and economic\nwell-being in the coming years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783319263700\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783319799438\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9783319263700","offer_id":40604225372253,"sku":"9783319263700","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Softcover - 9783319799438","offer_id":39420368453725,"sku":"9783319799438","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/8ebc397b-809e-49e7-97ca-6034de547ff4.jpg?v=1775281862","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/introduction-to-peak-oil-von-roger-bentley","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
