You might want to read what I wrote when I first posted the article in the Abiotic thread.

Has anyone ever heard of the term Abiotic and its links with the oil beneath the ground.

I think you can find a lengthy debunking on Wikipedia.
Abiotic oil is pushed by right wing Young Earth Creationists and the Sarah Palin fan club over at World Net Daily.

Abiotic oil debunking is a regular thing around here. New members who have not done their homework bring it up as a solution to the worlds problems. Posting a reply uses more energy than will ever be generated by such a thing.

I like it too. I'll ask the committee review it.

Posting a reply uses more energy than will ever be generated by such a thing. About three or four years ago I did the math on this abiotic oil nonsense and posted it on a thread right here at po.com. I still remember the conclusion, however. And others have done it elsewhere, and maybe here as well. The conclusions are close to this, if I remember correctly. Maybe someone could verify this. To produce abiotically what is believed to the total amount of oil in the world (I think I used 2 T bbls) over a period of millions of years ( I think I used several hundred million years) the net abiotic production amounts to around 1,000 bbls/d. 1000 bbls/d is nice, but I think we're burning it a bit faster than that.
