Every peak in oil production isn't "PEAK OIL!!!!!"
Fine. You really want me to prove that you are wrong? (your current idea, not the one you'll change it to after I demonstrate why you are wrong) Pay attention now, and don't be changing the subject after I prove how Mike Lynch is right, and you are just trolling because I still don't believe you are as stupid as you are pretending...i.e. imitating pstarr, for whom it might be perfectly natural or chemically induced.
In 2006 Jeffrey Brown was pretending to know something about resource economics. All he managed to do by this date in time is demonstrate why you don't ask a geologist economic questions, but he was quite popular in the peak oil days, even posted some occasional gibberish here about peak oil.
Here is Jeff in 2006, saying that peak oil is a done deal.The title of his article?
westtexas wrote:Has oil peaked? Yes.
The first sentence in the article.
westtexas wrote:The Texas oil industry knows all about peak oil, because we’ve already gone through it.
So Jeffrey uses...you guessed it...THE PAST TENSE. You do understand how these work in the English language, right Plant?
Texas has peaked. Done deal. Decades ago. The article says 1972.
Just 9 years later in 2015, the demonstration of why you don't listen to geologists when it comes to resource economics becomes visible
here.Of importance to this proof is this quote...
Statewide (Texas) oil output is expected to reach 1.28 billion barrels this year, exceeding the state’s record of 1.26 billion barrels set in 1972, Ingham said.
Now, I don't care what the expectation was, I just need the number for that OTHER peak oil...you know...the one that Jeffrey claimed was a done deal....decades earlier?
1.26 billion barrels, here let me make the next step easier for you....1.26 billion = 1260 millions for the year. Now the hard part. I divide by 12 to get the monthly number. 105,000 thousands of barrels per month. Now we check out what happened with Texas. Here is the EIA info. I've already converted the fuelfix article units so you don't need to worry about needing a calculator (considering the difficulty you have with logic, I didn't want to make your predicament worse)
See that OTHER peak in 2015? 110,000 thousands, 110,000,000 barrels/month. Looks like #3 might be warming up in the batters box as well.
Peak oil according to a tried and true geologist, happened in Texas and awe shucks, it was in the past and done. Except it wasn't. Because peak oils are given credit for their existence on a cartesian coordinate system, the second coordinate being TIME. Just as Hubbert did it, just as Jeffrey did it, just as the EIA and IEA plot domestic and global oil production, you can't avoid the second coordinate, and peak oilers do EXACTLY what Jeffrey did every chance they get. They declare peak oil...and then look stupid later, and make up excuses as to why they now look stupid. Or in the case of some folks, begin changing the definition of oil, and "pulling a Trump" i.e. "bald faced lying". Pstarr is famous for this one.
Now stop whining about how easy it was to prove you wrong...again....and for goodness sake stop TROLLING, or at least go do it to pstarr or someone who won't notice.

Cheers!
I did. You are welcome. If you need help using a calculator to get the units right to understand the vast complexity of the EIA Texas production chart, PM me and I'll explain it all keypunch by keypunch.
Plant Thu 27 Jul 2023 "Personally I think the IEA is exactly right when they predict peak oil in the 2020s, especially because it matches my own predictions."
