Oil geologist predicted oil war in Dec. 2000

Oil is reaching global peak production after which production will fall and prices will rise consistantly and permanently and remaining oil will become more and more concentrated in the Middle East.

Colin Campbell is both an academic and a businessman. Educated at Oxford and holding a Masters degree he has served as a geologist for Oxford University, Texaco, British Petroleum and Amoco (prior to the BP Amoco merger). He has served in executive positions with Shenandoah Oil, Amoco, Fina and was Chairman of the Nordic American Oil Company. He has served as a consultant on oil for the Bulgarian government as well as for Statoil, Mobil, Amerada, Total, Shell, Esso and for the firm Petroconsultants in Geneva. He is the Convener and Editor of the Association for the Study of Peak Oil and a Trustee of the Oil Depletion Analysis Center in London.

As a member of The American Society of Petroleum Geologists, The Geological Society of London, and the Petroleum Institute of London he has delivered more than 35 lectures on oil depletion on three continents. His hosts have included universities, governments, and auto manufacturers. He has been published more than 150 times in the field including the 1997 book "The Coming Oil Crisis" (Multi-Science Publishing Co. & Petroconsultants).

has served as advisor to Chevron Oil.
They named an oil tanker (double hulled) after her.
The Irish government had once the option of choosing Rice or Humanitarian Food Aid as a lobby option in the build-up to the War.
It was avoided.
C. Rice plays Brahms and Beethovan to relax.
A. Leibowitz in her globally synidcated pictures of Ms. Rice shows both the model of the oiltanker presented to Ms. Rice and a copy of the first volume of piano sonatas by Mozart.
These sonatas included those written at Manheim in 1777. Mozart was in a period of relative security. Later in the volume we see the transition to Paris. Mozart at his most frivolous.
