there appears to be strong evidence that oil and gas will
increase as the hubbert peak nears, sometime this decade.
does the following from the energy information administration
look like it is reasonable?

The following is an extract from the report on short term energy outlook for
August 2000 taken from Energy Information Administration website at
http://www.eia.doe.gov:

"World  oil  markets,  while remaining sensitive to near-term supply
indicators,
including  U.S.  inventory  levels,  are,  in  our estimation, still on
track to
deliver  gradually  declining  crude oil prices through the end of this year
and
through  2001  as  well.  World supply in 2000 (76.6 million barrels per
day) is
expected  to exceed demand (75.8 million barrels per day), leading to a
reversal
of  the  downshift in petroleum inventories in industrialized countries
observed
since mid-1999. Our base case projections imply that, while average crude
prices
will  have  risen  over $9 per barrel in 2000, an average decline of $4 - $5
per
barrel is seen for 2001."
