How much oil actually is left?

Maybe. Dr. Gold postulated that oil has nothing to do with dinosaurs, and is in fact a product of the mantle. He drilled a hole into the middle of the continental kraton where current oil creation theory says you will NEVER find oil. Guess what, he found some.

Well, we landed a probe on the moon Titan around Saturn which is covered in lakes of hydrocarbons and I'm almost certain there is no biology there as the mean temp there is something like -250°F, so, it must be possible.

Maybe our plant-based crustal hydrocarbons here are actually a fluke; that rare exception in the universe because plants are rare.

And what does it say of our current oil creation theory when maybe 1 in 10 pilot test holes we drill where we EXPECT to find oil actually turn any up? And often, not very much.

It says that our theories aren't very good.
