Crude oil has always been a renewable resource. Think about it. The world has been around for roughly 4.5 billion years. Yet, today, there are cracks in the ocean floor that are leaking crude oil into the ocean. If crude oil was not a natural, renewable resource, it would have run out billions of years ago.

Also, yeah. Wells refill.

More to the point how did something that floats get below the oceans in areas that have never bee above the oceans?

And why is the deepest oil well 40,000 ft deep while the deepest coal mine is 2,500 ft? Coal was produced from 300m to 500m years ago and is not being produced anymore. The key was that lignin existed but not the bacteria to digest it. Now oil, despite floating on ground water, somehow made it to 40,000ft depth??? It must have been produced a looong time ago. But at these depths, how? What was alive so long ago?

My theory has always been that the oil acts as a lubricant of sorts. I assumed it either replenished itself, or one day earthquakes would become commonplace. In hindsight, I think it is also possible that the real wealth of oil is much deeper than any drills have ever gone. Maybe the oil we find is what has seeped upwards from below the crust.

Change my mind.

Is there a planetary jiffy-lube? Maybe that's what the aliens are doing - the "check tectonic plates" light has been on for a few decades.

They are stealing our oil and replacing it with full synthetic.

The full synthetic ups the gas mileage though....

What would it lubricate and why? That sounds like it has design and purpose.

[ - ] Centaurus 1 point 2.1 yearsMar 24, 2022 22:55:42 ago (+1/-0)

How are the continents able to move? It could be a lubricant for either the crust and mantle or the crust and the continental crust. If we use it as a lubricant, then why would it not be possible that it also serves the same purpose for the planet. Maybe the movement of the continents serves a purpose we do not understand yet and oil keeps the engine running. As far as "what is oil made from?", your guess is as good as mine. But I'll bet that if you and I had access to whatever technologies we wanted to use that already exist on Earth, we could figure it out. So why can't they? The idea that oil was produced from the fossils of extinct lifeforms is preposterous at best.

Subduction. But of course that could only be true where one plate is being subducted.

Its renewable but it takes 50 million years to produce it. So its not renewable in a practical sense. I doubt we are about to run out of it soon but there is a finite quantity.

My theory: The world is not billions of years old, we live within a closed system, the Earth exists within a flat plane inside a simulation and crude oil is a renewable source that we were meant to utilize.

Very much so, and it makes more sense than the official narrative of dead life forms.

There is a reason the JWO has been systematically destroying one major oil-producing nation after another. They are creating an artifical shortage because they know the supply of oil is basically limitless and their New Green Steal plan would get no traction.

Agree. If this was really about CO2 ouput, why would’t we be building nuclear plants? Why manufacture all our shit in China? Why do these globohomos fly private jets to carbon conferences 5 times a year? It only makes sense when you know they want to control 100% of the oil and let the peasants have none.

Do yals remember that movie that came out a while ago called "Collapse". It was all about "peak oil" and It was mainly just that guy sitting there smoking a cigarette talking about how we are gonna run out of oil and everything is going to collapse? The dude in the movie was later on Rogans podcast. Idk. I remember that shit. I thought it was crazy when I first saw it,but now, not so much.

Oil is not fossil fuel, and depleted oil wells have been found to refill themselves.

It is a fossil fuel and what does that have to do with a well refilling? That is caused by gravity. It wont refill forever. Its not a magic well.

Okay so I researched a little about the abiotic theory and I learned something new. Its not as fake and gay as it sounded. So I now change my position (a little) to include some chemical reactions that do not involve organic matter but still would take a very long time under natural conditions. So it could be produced through strictly geological processes in part.

I think Im going to interpret your statement as evidence of your literal belief that earth has a soul and that sterile dirt is somehow alive because it sounds consistent with some of the other stuff you said you believe. But its just a rock with some stuff living on it.

No, it's not. The guy who named it "fossil" fuel did so for marketing purposes. He spoke about it numerous times.

Also, also, gravity specifically causes water to be pulled below oil (it floats), so how did it get below the oceans? And before you say it was above the oceans, some of it never was.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 2.1 yearsMar 25, 2022 19:19:14 ago (+0/-0)

By fossil I simply mean that it is created by organic matter under pressure sequestered without oxygen. The fact that the guy invented a catchy name for it doesn’t disprove that is comes from organic matter.
Also, also, gravity specifically causes water to be pulled below oil (it floats), so how did it get below the oceans?

I don’t think this argument makes sense because when organic matter settles and starts to get sequestered under sedimentary rock, its not oil yet. So this is a process that could happen under the ocean. The matter does not take on the physical properties of oil until it is buried for a very long time. Ie. material that will one day become oil does not necessarily float on water. Right?

[ - ] SparklingWiggle 0 points 2.1 yearsMar 25, 2022 19:40:10 ago (+0/-0)

And I don't believe it is organic matter. I believe it may be created as a mineral through the available heat and pressure. Oil wells can be found 20,000 ft deep. putting it in a place that water has always been on top of.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 2.1 yearsMar 25, 2022 20:23:01 ago (+0/-0)

So maybe it can be created through a geologic process without organic matter. But that doesn’t rule out that organic matter isn’t involved in some or most of hydrocarbon “fossil” fuel creation. We can see fossil fuel being created in peat bogs at an intermediate stage.
Oil wells can be found 20,000 ft deep. putting it in a place that water has always been on top of.
Im not a geologist. But I don’t know what this statement is supposed to prove to me.
1. “An ocean was on top of it” does not preclude oil formation— organic material could get sequestered by sediment under the ocean or on top of a continent
2. Just because a rock layer is at 20,000 ft below the surface doesn’t mean it was never at 0 elevation at some point in its geologic history. Subduction is a thing. I don’t know enough about it to say what’s “too deep” for subduction but <4 mi seems in the realm of possibility to me.

[ - ] FalseRealityCheck 2 points 2.1 yearsMar 24, 2022 20:25:20 ago (+2/-0)

There is absolutely no proof that crude oil is derived from organic sources. The best that can be said is that when crude oil is tested organic matter is found in it. That stands to reason since the oil is not located in an isolated or "sterile" environment.

If @Goatslayer drops a load into a gallon of gasoline — he's into kinky shit like that — and it is subsequently tested, organic matter will also be found.

But gasoline is already a fossil fuel...

[ - ] SmokeyMeadow 10 points 2.1 yearsMar 24, 2022 17:25:48 ago (+10/-0)

Oil tycoon John D Rockefeller popularized the myth of fossil fuels in order to drive up the price of his product. It's always been a renewable resource, and the fossil myth is one of the longest-running proofs of politicized science. Modern scientists would never dare admit that all their decades of fear-spewing about peak oil was just bullshit.

[ - ] FalseRealityCheck 7 points 2.1 yearsMar 24, 2022 20:16:19 ago (+7/-0)

No, goy: That is wrong. Oil comes from biological organisms that have been dead for millions of years and were turned into crude oil by dwarves living beneath the Earth's surface.

We are at "Peak Oil". And no, we didn't have a series of wars to systematically destroy one major oil-producing nation after another — that would be crazy!

"petroleum and natural gas deposits are mostly formed by inorganic means, rather than by the decomposition of organisms"

[ - ] BulletStopper 3 points 2.1 yearsMar 25, 2022 06:25:55 ago (+3/-0)

Gas chromatography of light passing through the atmospheres of planets outside our own solar system have shown the presence of hydrocarbons in their atmospheres.

So if oil is supposedly composed of fermented dead dinosaur asses and is therefore a "fossil fuel" and a "limited resource", why do they keep finding new oil deposits in places that have never had fucking dinosaurs in them? Like the bottom of the ocean and on other fucking planets?

Or maybe they're just lying?

[ - ] nephileon 3 points 2.1 yearsMar 24, 2022 20:40:51 ago (+3/-0)

hot take: high-pressure, spontaneously-combusting underground petroleum is the fuel to heat the magma that sources volcanos all across the world. To not tap petroleum is to fuel Volcanos.

It's a matter of proportion. Modern humans think the earth is small and they're large, so oil to them is a puddle. It's like city dwellers think the world is overcrowded because they think the city is the world.

[ - ] Belrick 2 points 2.1 yearsMar 24, 2022 19:06:29 ago (+2/-0)

Leaving aside the question.

Oil has always been green renewable solar energy.

It's literally hydrocarbons where if heat is applied the hydrogen cracks from the unwanted carbon and we can mix the hydrogen gas with oxygen and power combustion engines.

Hydrocarbons are formed naturally by photosynthesis.

Totally renewable just that some forms are more convenient than others because pure hydrogen is a bitch to store

There are countless orgnisms living in the earth. They die. And they’re feeding off of thermal activity and mineral layers… some might be classified as extremophiles. Oil does not come from burried biological layers, it comes from a constantly replinishing source of dying things… Just to highlight how vast the web of life is for you, not a single plant can exist in nature without a symbiotic relationship with mushrooms. None known anyway. And mushrooms are classifiable within their own kingdom… but share a ton of hormone and chemical similarities to animals.
