The scale of the axis gave me aids.
Line break makes it look worse than it is.
Yes, but not to the extent you think. The reserve has to keep a sizable amount of oil in it to maintain pressure, so it can’t go anywhere near zero. I can’t be fucked to look up the exact number it needs but if memory servers right it’s around half of what’s currently left in it.
Yes, the realistic floor is around 160,000 million barrels, not 0. As the reserve approaches only 160,000 million barrels remaining, supply issues happen because they can’t use certain locations anymore.
So we get nine months until civilization collapses. That’s fine.
At least we will not have fuel to send all the weapons to Israel. Just finding the silver lining here.
Worse. If OPs other comment is correct its more like 4-5 months^^
This is what happens when The (wrong) “Right” believes their own hype about how special & powerful America is.
