what are the predictions regarding world oil reserves, how many years before we run into serious problems?

Answer 1

BP did a survey,and it said the last places on earth to produce oil will be Iraq and Iran.

Iraq will be the last oil producing country on earth,they will
run out in around 116 years( why do you think the USA
are in Iraq?)

Iran will run out about 30 years before Iraq(why do you
think the USA want regime change in Iran)

At the moment the Saudis have the most oil.

Did you know that both Iraq and Iran changed from
selling oil for dollars to euros,then after the USA
invaded they changed the oil for euros back to
dollars.(if it wasn't true it would be laughable)

All these facts are on the web,type in real reasons
for war in Iraq.

Answer 2

The predictions are mostly diffrent and we dont know how much Oil there is left in the middle east and China is keeping veru quite if they have oil they are not drilling.
But even if the best oil reserves are there then no more than 40 years and some say 30...
As posted above Opec says 20-25...but with the world growing rapidly probably about 15. Watch out for 2022.

Answer 3

There will be a shift from using petroleum to using Helium 3. Many people are unaware of Helium 3.

Researchers and space enthusiasts see Helium-3 as the perfect fuel source: extremely potent, non-polluting, with virtually no radioactive by-product. Proponents claim it is the fuel ofthe 21st century. The trouble is, hardly any of it is found on Earth. But there is plenty of it on the moon.

Cosmochemist and geochemist Ouyang Ziyuan from the Chinese Academy of Sciences who is now in charge of the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program has already stated on many occasions that one of the main goals of the program would be the mining of helium-3, from where "each year three space shuttle missions could bring enough fuel for all human beings across the world."

Now which you have have been given captured the essential 3-character answer on your 1200 be conscious "question", enable me elucidate my own factors: Deliverance: "...nicely if I actual have a million billion money i will turn the Philippines around 360 tiers and communicate technology and technologies the only determination we would desire to be industrialize." Bhuwisit's remark: Filipinos have have been given to end fantasizing on such an atrociously obtuse point as you.

Deliverance: "i want to do some thing for the Philippines, .... using fact I .... think of like (a) German, French and Italian, i do no longer think of like Filipino ...." Bhuwisit's remark: Uh, you think of precisely like a Filipino. See previous remark. believe me in this, expensive Deliverance.

Answer 5

Only a few.
Then there might be huge earth movements when our globe fills in the spaces left after all the oil's gone.
Perhaps that's serious enough for you.
