i looked at your question because i wanted to see an answer. i personally do not have one, however.





I can recall some years back that there were estimates that world wide oil reserves would be depleted by 2025(appx)





Though i am sure that oil consumption has risen since then and i am also sure that more oil has been found though how much and how long they will last i cannot say but would also be interested in knowing
