The Hubbert model says that, within a reasonably large region, oil production should follow a bell shaped curve. When the model is applied to worldwide oil production, the maximum level of ...
Peak conventional crude did happen, and it happened exactly as Hubbert and Pickens said. Without the pink prop, we would be back on Hubbert's curve, and Pickens estimates something like $175 oil.
In a prescient 1956 paper, Hubbert drew on more than a century’s worth of data to suggest that fossil fuel production followed a characteristic bell-shaped curve, ramping up sharply in the early ...
Hubbert’s curve is fairly simple, rising and falling symmetrically on either side of the peak. More specific forecasts of “peak water” require a bit more sophistication.
Three of Hubbert's bell-shaped curves show his forecast for oil production in the US (Figs. 1-3). 1 He used two estimates from Pratt and Weeks for ultimate oil reserves of 150 billion and 200 ...

When Hubbert extended the production curve into the future it looked like it would peak around 1970. Every year after that, America would pump less oil than it had the year before.
That graph is now called Hubbert's curve. Hubbert was widely criticized at the time by many oil experts and economists, but in 1971 his prediction came true: U.S. production peaked and began a ...
