Predicts that debt can not longer grow or be served when oil production falters. Savinar is a bright analyst, and proves it here.

“See, there’s 85 million barrels [of oil production] a day in the world, and that is–I believe is Peak Oil. You have capped at 85 million. You can’t get any more than that out of the system.”

“Will we go back to four dollars [per gallon of gas]? Of course you’ll go back to four dollars.”

Granted, T Boone Pickens is heavily invested in the natural gas industry, and so he has a reason to criticize the competing product–oil.

The next 30 years will probably be different from the last 30 years.

Agenda

o History of energy consumption
o Energy in the modern world
o Countries passed Peak
o Future energy production
o EROEI
o Modern Infrastructure Dependencies
o Mechanized Agriculture
o Banking, Finance and Growth
o Conclusions

History of Energy Consumption

o Wide spread use of heating coal between 1400s and 1600s in Western Europe and China.
o England develops railway technology, and this enables them to become the super-power of the 1600s.
o Initially coal is simply picked up off the ground. Then it is mined from surface level exposed coal beds. Miners begin to dig deeper, causing mines to flood with water.

History of Energy Consumption

Introduction of Coal Transport

First steam locomotive (coal) is built by Richard Trevithick in 1804

Coal Based Agriculture
o Steam Technology quickly develops into a technology explosion and there are applications in a wide variety of industries
o Steam Technology becomes very successful for Agriculture

Ex-Edinburgh Corporation Aveling & Porter
Steam Tractor
Important Milestones
o In 1858 the first commercial OIL well is drilled by James Miller Williams in Black Creek Ontario.
o In 1859 Edwin Drake drilled the first oil well in the United States.

Black Creek
AKA
Oil Springs, Petrolia, Ontario, v. 1870

Important Milestones
o Initially `Rock OIL is used to power OIL lamps.
o Crude oil replaces whale oil industry.
o Nicolaus Otto built the first practical four-stroke internal combustion engine called the “Otto Cycle Engine,
o In 1891 Herbert Akroyd Stuart built his oil engine, leasing rights to Hornsby of England
o The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur invented and built the world’s first successful airplane on December 17, 1903.
o The Model T set 1908 as the historic year that the automobile came into popular usage.
o In 1911, Winston Churchill commissions the construction of new and larger warships, the development of tanks, and the switch from coal to oil in the Royal Navy.
o This brings us up to the modern age.

Dr. Marion King Hubbert
Famously developed what is how known as Hubberts Peak
o Marion King Hubbert (October 5, 1903 October 11, 1989) was a geoscientist who worked at the Shell research lab in Houston, Texas. He made several important contributions to geology, geophysics, and petroleum geology, most notably the Hubbert curve and Hubbert peak theory (a basic component of Peak oil), with important political ramifications. He was often referred to as “M. King Hubbert” or “King Hubbert”.

Total Energy
Countries that have passed Peak
EROEI
o In physics, energy economics and ecological energetics, EROEI (Energy Returned on Energy Invested), ERoEI, EROI (Energy Return On Investment) or less frequently, eMergy, is the ratio of the amount of usable energy acquired from a particular energy resource to the amount of energy expended to obtain that energy resource.
o When the EROEI of a resource is equal to or lower than 1, that energy source becomes an “energy sink”, and can no longer be used as a primary source of energy.

Modern Infrastructure Dependencies

o Transportation
o Food
o Computers
o Everything else

Mechanized Agriculture

Banking, Finance and Debt
Conclusions
o The next 30 years are likely to be much different than the last 30 years.
o Cheap and Abundant Fossil energy is a historic relic of the past.
o Energy prices are likely to become more volatile in the future
o Food prices, and even food availability may become more unpredictable in the future.

Race to claim begins

The Arctic may hold far more oil than previously thought; as much as 90 billion undiscovered barrels according to a new study released today by the US Geological Survey. The new amount, equivalent to nearly 20 years of US foreign oil imports, is worth over $11 trillion dollars at current oil prices . One third of the amount may lie in Alaska alone, according to the study’s authors.
The region also holds nearly 1,700 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, 27% of known world gas reserves. Counting known deposits already surveyed, total oil and gas deposits in the Arctic are more than 410 billion barrels.
The study, known as CARA — Circum-Arctic Resource Appraisal — included only those deposits that could be tapped with current technology. Future advances would likely boost the number further. Researchers in Denmark, Greenland, Canada, and Norway contributed data to the study.
According to project chief, Donald Gautier, “The extensive Arctic continental shelves may constitute the geographically largest unexplored prospective area for petroleum remaining on Earth.”
A geopolitical scramble for the resources is beginning. Russia has taken steps to secure rights to the region, last year sending a nuclear-powered ship to map a possible undersea connection between Siberia and the North Pole. This would allow the nation a rationale to circumvent the UN 200-mile limit of offshore resource claims.
Seven other nations have claims for the area, including Norway, Sweden, Canada, and the U.S. Earlier this month, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said the nation intends to “defend” its sovereignty in the Arctic, backing up the statement with a plan to divert 8 military patrol ships to the region, along with a new deep-water port.
