Art Berman says that the oil age reached a peak already in 1977

Publicerad 2022-09-24 11:47:00 i Art Berman, November 2018, Peak Oil and energy questions,

I wrote recently on this blog that in some sense, Peak Oil happened, not in November 2018, but in 2005. Some experts are even more radical. Far more radical. World-renowned oil geologist Art Berman wrote in the article "Energy Shock & Transition: A Perspective from Inside the Energy Industry" in September 21, 2022, on his blog, the following:
 
"The larger problem is that the oil age reached a peak in about 1977 and has been declining ever since."
 
The way one calculates Peak Oil depends on how one counts.
 
He also writes: "Per-capita oil consumtion peaked in 1978 and has been flat since 1985."
