85 - A God Among Us - Marion King Hubbert

Today I'm releasing my next installment in my God Among MGTOW Series. This one is about the famous petroleum geologist M. King Hubbert who went his own way and stood up to the Shell Oil Company in 1956. I usually don't feature men that are married and have families in this series. But the reason I'm featuring him is because this man had the strength to stand up for the research, regardless of what the company paying him told him to do. So let me take you back to 1956. In that year Marion King Hubbert or M. King Hubbert as he is sometimes referred to was working as a geoscientist for the Shell oil company in one of their laboratory in Houston, Texas. On March 8th, 1956 he made a speech to the Southern Section of the American Petroleum Institute in San Antonio Texas. He was about to go up on stage and present his speech that day but was signaled to leave the stage. In what was a last minute phone call the public relations staff at the Shell Oil company begged him to tone down the parts of his speech that they considered to be sensational. However he didn't do this and instead decided to go his own way instead. He didn't do what people in his own company told him to do. We went on stage and told his audience that oil production in the United States was going to reach a peak or maximum rate of production for conventional oil in 1970. Many of the people in the audience thought he was a crackpot. In some weird way he was like Galileo telling men that the world was flat. He told everyone that United States conventional oil production would peak in 1970 at 3 billion barrels of oil production per year. In reality it peaked in 1970 at 3.4 billion barrels and has never recovered to those levels. Even with Alaska in the nineteen seventies and nineteen eighties and today's Oil Fracking boom it never rose above that point and if oil production from fracking goes into decline within the next 5 years as is predicted by many of today's petroleum geologists then that will mean oil production will continues to decline. I know many of you are skeptics and will say if only the US government would allow for more offshore drilling then everything will be alright. And that the US government is holding back US oil production. On the contrary the US government is doing whatever it can to bend over backwards to the oil companies. They are giving them permits to frack most of America's oil shale. We are in the midst of giant oil boom in North America. But it's not going to last as production starts to peak out and go into decline. Marion King Hubbert is guy most of you haven't heard of before but in the coming decades as global oil production goes into terminal decline you will most likely be hearing his name.People mocked Hubbert and criticized him because up to that point in history more and more oil was being found all of the time back then. It was being found faster then humanity could burn it up. Today for every new barrel of conventional oil we find we burn three. And most of the non-conventional oil is uneconomical at current prices and requires one hundred and fifty to two hundred barrels to be produced for a profit.
