gollark: You said 10 to 15 years.
gollark: Oil is used in way more than cars.
gollark: I don't see the demand falling enough to be significant in just a decade or so.
gollark: So the price should probably just stay the same, all else being equal.
gollark: So production will be downscaled, but demand will be lower too.
