N2  - In the last decade, oil experts, geologists, and policy makers alike have warned that a peak in oil production around the world was about to be reached and that global economic distress would result. But it didn't happen. Author Michael C. Lynch debunks the 'peak oil' crisis prediction and describes how the next few years will instead see large amounts of new supply that will bring oil prices down and boost the global economy
