Disclaimer.Skip to blue font If you don't want to read my and scientists reasons to suspect deep crust crude to exist. This theory is different from current theory. Deep crude proponents suspect impacts of deep space objects early in earths history on several occasions some lasting ten thousand years or more may altered vast methane reserves by unimaginable heat and pressure. My take (an abstract); As a amateur astronomer I read everything 'science' I get my hands on, especially when the subject is chemistry astrophysics cosmology etc. Anyway as a child I learned about the our planets and their geological make up. Most of the 'outer' planets have vast reserves of raw methane and other hydrocarbons, as do the inner planets, but they have far lesser quantities. >>>>brevity snip<<<<< I will leave out some things to shorten this up<<<<< A new rather shaky theory makes the claim these massive early impacts may have started the entire pate tectonic process, I believe it also may have produced vast crude oil reserves. The earths natural reserves of methane could have been chemically altered to produce vast lakes of deep crude oil which added to the earths traditional crude oil reserves would make our supply of crude nearly inexhaustible. Science htit on the same idea because today some scientists are raising funds to explore or deep oil that they suspect were created by Impacts. What do the PF nerds think? I say yes we have vast reserves of deep crust methane based oil. sources & notes ; ‎(1)...Some geologists have suggested probing ancient impact craters in the search for oil. ... it would mean Earth contains vast reserves of untapped petroleum objects formed from the same raw material as Earth, that crude oil might exist on http://www.livescience.com/9404-mysterious-origin-supply-oil.html (2)....conventional Geology: Peak Oil Myth unconventionalgeology.blogspot.com/2012/02/peak-oil-myth.html‎ that most oil and gas is of abiotic origin, formed from methane and .... or if a giant meteorite impact hit our mother Earth and reduce... reva
Firstly~ IF said deposits are in fact there, access to them would be extremely difficult and expensive making them for all intent and purpose useless. Secondly~ Fossil fuels will shortly become passe and frowned upon by most of the world...only developing countries will use them and they will lack the technology and finances to extract such resources or pay for them. Thirdly~ There are sufficient and far easier sources of "Ancient Sunlight" available without resorting to such desperate measures.
IF oil prices go up - blame Turkey... U.S. oil eases on profit-taking after rally on Mideast risks Tue Nov 24, 2015 - U.S. crude oil futures dipped on Wednesday on profit-taking after the prices rallied to a two-week high on the previous session due to heightening geopolitical tensions in the Middle East with Turkey's downing of a Russian warplane.
Well, we call oil "dinosaur juice" for a reason.... Oil is decomposed organic material, but I can't buy this idea because for you to be right meteors and asteroids would have to be organic... I will certainly consider the theory of panspermia, but I don't know if I can buy this...
I know this... But both are organic material, and that was the point I was trying to make... Rocks, metal or ice alone doesn't create oil...
If we had the ability to harvest fuels from other planets, we would already have the energy source available to make fossil fuel obsolete.
The energy required to retrieve such "fuel" or even minerals wouldn't be worth it now.... In short it would be like driving a vehicle that gets 1.5 mpg 200,000 miles to tug a tanker of crude oil... Of course the issue is with breaking Earths gravity, once you get up there everything is fine, but it takes a tremendous amount of energy/fuel to get into orbit...
