On Tuesday 7th November 2006 the Energy Institute (UK) held their annual oil depletion conference, Oil Depletion - Dealing with the Issues. The programme is available here (pdf).

The resource-limited peak in the global production of conventional oil looks to be very close. This peaking of readily available oil supply is likely to be disruptive and to have serious economic consequences. This one-day conference will examine the data and calculations that indicate the peak, and present some of the challenges to be faced. The meeting is of interest to all who have a professional need to understand near and medium term global energy supply. The meeting will conclude with a panel discussion on the implications of the peaking of oil supplies.

I'm only reporting on the first three speakers and Clare Durkin here, apologies to the others.

[UPDATE 15Nov06]: Euan has recently written a excellent report on the presentation from Dr Ken Chew, IHS Energy:
IHS Data Suggest Kuwaiti and Global Proved Oil Reserves Significantly Lower Than BP Estimates

The slides are now available (only until the end of Nov06) for download from here.
