Hubbert Center Dedication Newsletter

The M. KING HUBBERT CENTER FOR PETROLEUM SUPPLY STUDIES located in the Department of Petroleum Engineering Colorado School of Mines Golden, Colorado
The Hubbert Center has been established as a non-profit organization for the purpose of assembling and studying data concerning global petroleum supplies and disseminating such information to the public. The views expressed by the Center Coordinator and by authors of Center publications are their own, and do not reflect the opinions of Colorado School of Mines, its faculty, its staff, or its Department of Petroleum Engineering.
The question of WHEN worldwide oil demand will exceed global oil supply is stubbornly ignored. The world's oil problems, timing and ramifications can be debated and realistic plans made only if the question is publicly addressed. A growing number of informed US and European evaluations put this crisis as close as the years 2000 - 2014. The formation of this center is to encourage a multi-field research approach to this subject.
