more accurate gossip:
.. Earlier, the world's most powerful bankers said they expected crude oil to remain near record highs of $US60 a barrel for several years, eroding some strength from a world economy already vulnerable to upsets...

and

... Everyone knows that oil will not last for ever. The world is not going to move from current levels of production to zero overnight; there will be a long process of gradual decline. Using techniques originally developed by M. King Hubbert to assess the profile of US oil production, industry experts can estimate, with a high degree of certainty, the high point of global output - or peak oil, as it is known.

Hubbert calculated this with accuracy for the US, pinpointing the 1970s as the zenith of production. For the North Sea, peak oil was at the end of the 1990s.

The world as a whole has yet to reach that point. But before you breathe a sigh of relief, consider this. If the experts are right, global peak oil could arrive in 2008...

and

...Motorists will have to get used to petrol prices of more than $1 a litre for many years if contracts for the future price of crude oil are correct.

The international benchmark price for crude reached a record $US60 a barrel late last week and the market for the future delivery of oil suggests the price will stay near these levels until 2010 and beyond. The price for oil delivery in 2012 is about $US55.
