S. government and its constituents need both the oil production rate and the revenue from the deepwater offshore projects. Inasmuch as the real production rate of liquid petroleum is peaking and the imaginary additions are unlikely to make up for the rate deficit, the world, but especially the developed countries, and above all the United States, will face inevitable shortages of liquid transportation fuels. For the completely unprepared United States, such shortages may be economically devastating.

Utilities to upgrade old and decaying power plants. This unwillingness in turn is caused by the requirements of the Clean Air Act, which forces operators to upgrade all the way to the state-of-theart, if they decide to change anything in an old power plant. How Do We Use Fossil Energy? 25 GJ/month of a fossil fuel, or 135 GJ/year. 9 metric tonnes of gasoline. ) per year to obtain the needed electricity. S. 01 mega watts (MW) of power. As an industrial worker, a single person uses and outputs many times more power.

IEA promises to fill this gap with new discoveries, further development of existing fields, enhanced oil recovery (EOR), such as CO2 or steam injection, and a further increase of production from the Canadian tar sands. All these alternatives to conventional oil will alleviate the shortages somewhat, but their aggregate cannot possibly make up for the declining oil production in the existing fields. Note that natural gas liquids (NGL) cannot power a majority of the cars currently on the road, and will not play a major role globally as a source of liquid transportation fuels, unless there is a massive conversion of gasoline-burning engines to NGL-burning ones.
