If this is true than AWG is the biggest scam in history. Well perhaps second biggest. The other one is peak oil.
Question for whoever understands all the chemistry
WHere does coal fit in to this? Are we being scammed there too?

No, we are blessed so to be with enough filthy dirty coal to last 200-300 years. To bad there is no economic way to make it clean, or atleast as clean as natural gas.

Russians don't explore and find they hire westerners with the skills and technology to explore and find for them.
They can't do it themselves they have neither the skill, the engineering capacity or the existing technology.

Not just seismic surveys, but IP and Em surveys are a specialty us westerners offer also :) even to the russians

Given the fact that under Stalin numerous pseudo-scientific research projects were instituted, is it possible that the search for non-fossil oil was just another of them? BTW researchers that failed to produce results in many of Stalin's pet projects often found themselves on a train bound for Siberia.

Good thing because the greenies in BC don't want windmills either. At least not if it interferes with their view and property prices.

Keep finding more and more of this stuff. No one ever mentions "peak oil" anymore. Progs are despondent.

Watch the December 2023 Tucker Carlson interview with Willie Soon to get some intelligent insight on abiotic hydrocarbons.
