Research Finds That Plant and Animal Fossils Not Needed for Crude Oil

September 13th, 2009

Swedish researches at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, have proven that fossils from animals and plants are not necessary for oil and natural gas generation. This is a pretty big deal.

“Using our research we can even say where oil could be found in Sweden,” says Vladimir Kutcherov, a professor at the Division of Energy Technology at KTH.

That’s great…now shine your halo headlights on the details my friend.

Together with two research colleagues, Vladimir Kutcherov has simulated the process involving pressure and heat that occurs naturally in the inner layers of the earth, the process that generates hydrocarbon, the primary component in oil and natural gas.

According to Vladimir Kutcherov, the findings are a clear indication that the oil supply is not about to end, which researchers and experts in the field have long feared.

“There is no doubt that our research proves that crude oil and natural gas are generated without the involvement of fossils. All types of bedrock can serve as reservoirs of oil,” says Vladimir Kutcherov, who adds that this is true of land areas that have not yet been prospected for these energy sources.

Well now…Blood for Oil shouldn’t be much of an issue now should it?
