Maybe sooner than you think if things don't change.

It’s called current consumption levels.

  • The world consumes 35,442,913,090 barrels of oil as of the year 2016, equivalent to 97,103,871 barrels per day.
  • Global oil consumption per capita is 5 barrels of oil (199 gallons) per person yearly (based on the 2016 world population of 7,464,022,049 people) or 0.5 gallons per capita per day.

Below, if you click, there is a countdown clock where you can see the live current usage ticking away, but that is only the reserves. πŸ‘‡ Us humans have a crap load of oil in reserves aound the planet.

Oil Reserves 1,650,585,140,000 β€” barrels (As of 2016)
