236. GRAPHOILOGY ON THE USGS

Khebab is a statistical wizard, and one of the unsung heroes of the peak oil community. His excellent new blog GraphOilogy focuses on in-depth mathematical analysis of peak oil issues, and is highly recommended for people who want to know/discuss the quantitative details.

As we saw in #226, Colin Campbell admits to being confused by the statistical methodology of the USGS, and may not be the best person to comment on its validity. Khebab is now working to remedy this problem. Unlike most of the USGS critics, he is digging deeply into the USGS World Petroleum Assessment 2000, and elucidating its true mechanics. I'll refer you to the article at GraphOilogy for details and discussion.
