I believe that it is not likely that we will run out of oil. Only that it will become more expensive as it becomes scarcer.

During the (supposed) fuel crisis in the seventies (1976, from memory), petrol went from 38c per gallon to 75c per gallon overnight! V8 production almost died & the world feared we would run out of oil. That was 30 years ago.
