There are two basic theories for the origin of crude oil: biotic and abiotic.
The origin of petroleum or natural gas may seem like a strange debate to have but determining whether this fuel is a fossil fuel or not is important.
If these fuels are truly fossil fuels, then they are limited in supply and alternative energy resources would need to be created at some point.
If they are not fossil fuels and are created through some form of abiogenesis – a natural process from non-living matter – then the need to develop alternative fuels is diminished.
The biotic theory is that oil and gas drilled out of the earth come from the remains of plants and animals trapped underground millions of years ago. These “fossil fuels” took aeons to form and we are using them up far faster than they can be replenished.
This fossil fuel theory is, however, just that – a theory. There are many features of the fossil-origin theory which still apparently puzzle some scientists. So, what if the whole theory is wrong?
The abiotic theory is an opposing view that has substantial evidence to back it up. This theory goes back centuries and includes as its prominent champions Dimitri Mendeleev, best known for inventing the periodic table.

Abiotic Oil Theory
While the chemistry is quite complex, environmental chemist Tristan Coleman wrote, the principle behind the abiotic oil idea is actually quite simple.
Carbon present in the magma beneath the Earth’s crust reacts with hydrogen to form methane and other hydrocarbons, with many chemically complex intermediate stages. Certain mineral rocks such as granite and other silicon-based rocks act as non-depleting catalysts to speed up the process.
Experiments have shown that under extreme conditions of heat and pressure, it is possible to convert iron oxide, calcium carbonate and water into methane as well as hydrocarbons containing up to ten carbon atoms. Such experiments have been undertaken last century by Russian scientists as well as more recently in the US, and even more recently in Sweden.
The conditions in the Earth’s mantle would be sufficient for these small hydrocarbons to polymerise into the longer chain molecules found in crude oil, for example. Moreover, the limited oxygen present in the Earth’s magma prevents the hydrocarbons from burning up despite the intense heat and pressure.
The hydrocarbons of abiotic origin then migrate out of the mantle into the crust until they escape to the surface or are trapped by impermeable strata, forming petroleum reservoirs.
Evidence Supporting Abiotic Theory
Some people have been deeply interested in oil and its origins but their advocacy of abiotic theory has many dismissing them as heretics, frauds or idealists. They hold that oil can be derived from hydrocarbons that existed aeons ago in massive pools deep within the earth’s core. That source of hydrocarbons seeps up through the earth’s layers and slowly replenishes oil sources. In other words, it turns the fossil fuel paradigm upside down.
Russian and Ukrainian Geologists
A 1996 paper by Dr. J. F. Kenney titled ‘Special Edition on The Future of Petroleum’ points out how predictions made that the human race was imminently going to run out of available petroleum “have depended fundamentally upon an archaic hypothesis from the 18th century that petroleum somehow (miraculously) evolved from biological detritus, and was accordingly limited in abundance.”
The hypothesis that petroleum originated from biological matter (fossils) “has been replaced during the past forty years by the modern Russian-Ukrainian theory of abyssal, abiotic petroleum origins which has established that petroleum is a primordial material erupted from great depth,” Kenney wrote.
In his paper, Kennedy quoted Professor Vladilen A. Krayushkin, a strong proponent of abiotic theory and Chairman of the Department of Petroleum Exploration at the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, as saying:
The eleven major and one giant oil and gas fields here described have been discovered in a region which had, forty years ago, been condemned as possessing no potential for petroleum production. The exploration for these fields was conducted entirely according to the perspective of the modern Russian-Ukrainian theory of abyssal, abiotic petroleum origins.
The drilling which resulted in these discoveries was extended purposely deep into the crystalline basement rock, and it is in that basement where the greatest part of the reserves exist. These reserves amount to at least 8,200 [million] metric tons of recoverable oil and 100 [billion] cubic meters of recoverable gas, and are thereby comparable to those of the North Slope of Alaska. It is conservatively estimated that, when developed, these fields will provide approximately thirty per cent of the energy needs of the industrial nation of Ukraine.
Professor Vladilen A. Krayushkin, Chairman of the Department of Petroleum Exploration, Institute of Geological Sciences, Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, Kiev, and leader of the project for the exploration of the northern flank of the Dni eper-Donets Basin, at the VII-th International Symposium on the Observation of the Continental Crust Through Drilling, Santa Fe, New Mexico, 1994.
Vladimir Kutcherov is a Swedish-based Russian geologist and a professor at the Division of Energy Technology at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm. In 2009 he was a co-author of a paper published in the journal Nature Geosciences.
The idea that oil comes from fossils “is a myth … we need to change this myth,” Kutcherov said. “All kinds of rocks could have oil and gas deposits.”
Alexander Kitchka of the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences estimated that 60% of the content of all oil is abiotic in origin. He said companies should drill deeper to find it.
Kitchka said oil may be found in all sorts of geological structures such as volcanic rock or deep-sea thermal vents where companies aren’t looking today.
Eugene Island
On Eugene Island, Louisiana, in 1995, it was reported that the oil fields were – perplexingly – refilling themselves after being depleted. The findings of Dr. Jean K. Whelan, part of a US Department of Energy exploration program, seem to support the abiotic theory to explain this. She found that the oil likely came from great depths, as abiotic proponents say.
In 1999, The Wall Street Journal reported:
Production at the oil field, deep in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana, was supposed to have declined years ago. And for a while, it behaved like any normal field: Following its 1973 discovery, Eugene Island 330’s output peaked at about 15,000 barrels a day. By 1989, production had slowed to about 4,000 barrels a day.
Then suddenly – some say almost inexplicably – Eugene Island’s fortunes reversed. The field, operated by PennzEnergy Co., is now producing 13,000 barrels a day, and probable reserves have rocketed to more than 400 million barrels from 60 million. Stranger still, scientists studying the field say the crude coming out of the pipe is of a geological age quite different from the oil that gushed 10 years ago.
The Great Oil Conspiracy
The late Cornell University astronomer Thomas Gold championed the abiotic theory. He said that oil contains organic compounds not because it is derived from fossils but because giant colonies of deep-earth bacteria feed on deep hydrocarbon pools way down in the mantle.
He believed that the hydrocarbons we use come from chemical stocks that were incorporated into the Earth at its creation. Since the oil crisis of the 1970s, Gold said that the Earth is hugely well endowed with these hydrocarbons – hundreds of times more so than most geologists, oil companies or OPEC leaders believe. The general belief in scarcity that drives up gas prices and causes fears of inflation, Gold argued, is a mirage that has served vested interests among oil producers for decades.

In 2012, author and writer Jerome Corsi published a book titled ‘The Great Oil Conspiracy: How the U.S. Government Hid the Nazi Discovery of Abiotic Oil from the American’.
In the book, he explained that the Nazis knew that oil is abiotic and that they had been making synthetic oil out of coal. They developed what’s known as the Fischer-Tropsch Process, equations which explained that the earth makes oil under intense pressure and heat deep within the earth on an ongoing basis, even today.
In an interview with Crosstalk America shortly after the release of his book, Corsi said that the Fischer-Tropsch equations explained that the earth at deep levels forms oil naturally. “It’s nonsense to think that oil is fossil fuel,” he said.
In the video above, Corsi explained that the biotic (fossil fuel) theory began by claiming that oil originated from dinosaur matter. Then its advocates moved on to claim that oil came from matter from ancient forests. “Once that theory began to be abandoned, people said: ‘Oh, it’s plankton and other deeper biological material’ … this whole idea there’s kerogen, which is a pre-oil gummy-like substance that is in sedimentary rock that’s forming the oil, is nonsense. It’s not the way chemistry works,” he said.
The Nazis realised that under intense pressure and heat, conditions which are in the mantle of the Earth, minerals that contain hydrogen and minerals that contain carbon in the presence of catalysts, such as iron oxide, will release hydrogen and carbon. This will lead to the formation of hydrocarbon molecular chains that develop into the products we know as crude oil or natural gas.
“This is an ongoing process. It goes on all the time. It’s natural to the earth. And, in fact, our solar system abundantly produces various forms of hydrocarbons,” he said.
The “Peak Oil” theory is also nonsense, Corsi said. This theory started, Corsi said, when a Shell Oil chemist “took a napkin and drew a bell curve, a Hubbert’s curve, and said, basically, that we have a lot of oil, then we peak in the use of oil, then it runs out. But those predictions have never come true.” Note that Corsi said this in 2012. Also note that in 2020, AP News spuriously labelled him a “conspiracy theorist.”
Peak Oil, a hypothetical point when global oil production maximises and enters an irreversible decline, has been the holy grail of resource economics for decades.
According to Britannica, the first person to advance the Peak Oil theory publicly was Marion King Hubbert, an American geoscientist who worked as a researcher for the Shell Oil Company from 1943 to 1964 and taught geophysics at Stanford University and other institutions. In 1956, Hubbert presented a paper in which he depicted US petroleum production on a bell curve which predicted production peaking between 1965 and 1975 and then declining.
Forbes admitted in an article last year that there are hundreds of faulty predictions of Peak Oil. The fault in all these forecasts, Forbes noted, is a failure to recognise oil production as inherently political. Adding that “beliefs and faith in this prophecy drive policy much more than any detached analysis.”
It doesn’t sound too dissimilar to anthropogenic global warming which, using pseudoscience coupled with an ideology, has predicted “tipping points” for decades In fact, Forbes linked Peak Oil directly to the much-touted “decarbonisation” agenda:
If Peak oil is already here, and we have yet not met our decarbonisation goals, then the implications for energy and the economy would be far-reaching.
If Peak oil is to arrive in the near future, then our current decarbonisation strategies, while not ideal, may be sufficient to reach the objectives of the Paris Agreement by 2050 with a temperature increase well below 2oC in comparison to pre-industrial levels.
If Peak Oil is far off, decarbonisation and environmental strategies face tremendous obstacles from the oil market and political pressure from the OPEC+ cartel. Recognition that oil is abundant changes the global oil market as well as the much-needed transition to clean energy.

Hi Rhoda,
Well you have done it again, provided more information about the fossil fuel scam.
Just to put this into perspective, just look on Monkey Werx, to see hundreds of military aircraft flying over the US on a daily basis.
Then look on Planefinder, to see all the civil aircraft.
To be using all this fuel to keep just those aircraft in the air, must be tremendous.
Then look at the whole world, and the amount of aircraft using fuel.
We have been lied to for years about fossil fuel.
Yes, and thousands of cargo ships crossing entire oceans every day… I call BS. And, I’m sick to death of the liars and their lies.
Great article, thank you! All true. If only more people would wake up.
Very likely the truth, animal remains was far fetched for sure.
The fact remains we are taxed on carbon emissions that are not even carbon. Its CO2 thats slated as the cause when it can not be so. The mechanism is radiation and resonant photons are depleted on a log basis from the first 20ppm. At 340 ppm the Pen University recorded no measurable heat was detectable. The CO2 scam is blown.

It was already know IMO at the end of 19th century but it had to be a secret for a Mr. Rockefeller got all dollars in his mind and his eyes.
And it works still, up till now. We are lied to. We are paying for Hot Air.
We are paying into oblivion to get the car topped up and again pay to be able to use the road.
What a miserable lie. So sad, so tragic, so stupid.
We were supposed to be out of most of our oil by 2000, this was frequently repeated towards the end of the last century. Seems the dinosaur theory, for the source of oil, is another fantasy dreamed up by the money men. So that the perceived scarcity allows them to increase the price.
Stop Oil lol ….. may as well try and stop the sunrise every day.
Is Oil A ‘Fossil Fuel’ Or It Is Abiotic?

The sun doesn’t rise. It’s actually the earth setting in relation to the sun, and making it seem as if the sun is moving up over the horizon, which it ain’t. Thanks.
Best evidence for abiotic hydrocarbons, imo, is Titan. Oceans of hydrocarbons! Were there primodial forests and dinosaurs on it? Unlikely. So how did it get there?
Leaves more questions than has answers for. What about the different quality types of coal? Biotic or abiotic? Huge calcium carbonate deposits, bio or abio? The mantle being composed largely as follows: 44.8% Oxygen, 21.5 silicon, 22.8 of metallic elements mainly as oxides. Where’s the carbon and hydrogen? Poof !?
That still leaves anther 10.9%. But we don’t need anything like that amount of carbon and hydrogen. What do you want, a mantel sloshing in oil?

And will make these fuels worth less (demand and supply), which would definitely shift and affect the economic and political power of nations and ideologies. Now we can’t have that, can we. Oil and gas are weaponized by the elite to foment civil unrest across the world, creating a false scarcity that does not really exist, drive up the prices and demand and money flows to the power structures.
Sort of sounds like what Rothchild did with homer pigeons about the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo. He made a killing while most others lost their shirt.
I would chance to say that John D. Rockefeller knew this from the begnning, suppressed it and made his fortune, just like he took control of the medical training and profession in the early part of the 20th century to work his evil there.

Gee, how many times can it be counted when accepted science has been proven incorrect with new, replicated experiments proving verifiably accurate theories correct?
The ‘biotic’ theory of Oil Production sounds FAR MORE LOGICAL AND REASONABLE FOR ME. Never seemed accurate for so many animals to die to create oil

This makes sense as dinosaur remains are found very often at levels not very deep and other fossils as well, and there is no oil with them. If dinosaurs that lived such a long time ago can be unearthed at relatively shallow depths, then oil is produced some other way. Same with coal actually, I think.
‘If dinosaurs lived’, good thing to postulate. Are dinosaurs just another hoax? https://cluesforum.info/viewtopic.php?t=1594
I grew up in Michigan. There is an oil well that has been pumping just off interstate 75 in the northern part of the state since the late 1800’s.

Good post Rhoda.
My dad serviced bottom-hole pumps for the oil industry 30 years, so I first heard of the abiotic theory back in the 60’s. It’s long been known that some depleted oil wells can recharge if left to sit for a period of time. However, many wells never recharge. Once that oil is taken from the ground its gone forever.
I’ve written extensively about the hoax that global warming is caused by CO2 and that the real culprit is geoengineering.
But the bigger issue here is that Big Oil is a globalist, centralized monopoly that, as an industry, has no scruples when it comes to starting wars to get at oil anywhere in the world. We also need to consider the sabotage of the Nordstream pipleine to understand how oil is used as a strategic weapon.
It’s clear the predatory elites who run Big Oil don’t have our best interests at heart.
So what are the solutions? I don’t know. But we can start by supporting anything and everything that is sourced and produced locally. Then we can strive to boycott anything sourced and produced by a globalist.
Hi Kyle, thank you. Your comment is a good read. Thank you for posting it.
As said on LinkedIn, looks like Osmosis may have a part to play, it makes sense, in combination with microbes & migration of dissimilar substances to dilution.
Thanks, Ms. Wilson, for a compact review of how Rockefeller’s simple adjective change formed the basis for a falsehood about oil’s origins for more than a century. I can’t find it in my files after an hour’s search, yet I have a long article about one of Ronald Regan’s close advisors who performed a deep study of the science purported to support the fossil fuel, non-renewable resource concept. He came to the same conclusions, however, his work never gained the attention it should have. None of this should sway the attention that should be given to the MANY so-called ‘free energy’ devices that sit on the shelves of the Patent Office without being recognized. Many brilliant scientists, along with intuitive engineering skills but unschooled, have developed a wide range of replacement fueled devices for automotive applications as well as electrical production. Many of these same people have been killed under suspicious circumstances for the efforts they made. Their concepts were, and remain, a direct threat to the current energy production giants in the energy mafia.
