How AI can unlock an extra trillion barrels of oil And deliver the volumes needed to meet resilient demand 15 October 2025 3 minute read Share on LinkedInShare on BlueskyShare on XShare by email Simon Flowers Chairman, Chief Analyst and author of The Edge Andrew Latham Senior Vice President, Energy Research Orla Marnell Principal Data Scientist, Upstream Josh Dixon Senior Research Analyst, Upstream Stronger-for-longer oil demand will heap pressure on the upstream industry to deliver new supply. I asked our subsurface experts, Dr Andrew Latham, Orla Marnell and Josh Dixon how artificial intelligence can identify opportunities to meet the challenge. Why do we need to unlock new supply? The slow pace of the energy transition means that oil demand is likely to be far more resilient than some thought just a few years ago. Wood Mackenzie forecasts annual consumption wonβt peak until the early to mid-2030s, and cumulative demand will be almost 1,000 billion barrels through 2050. Firm demand throws the spotlight onto where new supply can be sourced. Production from assets already onstream or justified for development will gradually decline under current investment plans from just over 100 million b/d today to 50 million b/d 2050, cumulatively 650 billion barrels. That leaves a huge supply gap of 300 million barrels.
It's tough to explain exactly how nutty this new report from fossil fuel industry consultant Wood Mackenzie is, but I'm going to try in a short thread.
As you can guess: 1 trillion barrels of oil is...............................A LOT

Data centers are "shaping up to be the mother of all political issues...pretty much everyone pays electric rates, & under Trump theyβre starting to skyrocket...heβs simultaneously accelerating demand w/ his support for data center buildout, & constricting supply by shutting down cheap solar & wind."

Energy is up to 267% costlier in areas w/ a data center nearby:
Exhibit #1000 in why "tech neutral permitting reform" is little more than a dodge from the hard work of politics and building solidarity amongst climate advocates to forcefully confront the entrenched power of fossil fuels.

He is not wrong: frantic expansion of fossil fuel supply worsens climate change. Tax it, cut subsidies, wind it down

Security prisoners - those incarcerated for offenses that intentionally harm national security - are housed separately from criminal prisoners and are not eligible for many of the benefits available to the general prison population. The term is a catch-all term applied to detainees, convicted prisoners and terrorists, and administrative detainees who are held without charges for extended periods, without trial.
"We are in Ketziot prison, and as I promised, those flotilla members, supporters of terrorism, are here in a security prison," Channel 14 reported Ben Gir as saying. "They receive conditions for terrorists here, for everything, terrorist sweatpants, terrorist conditions. This means, there is a minimum of the minimum, that's what I promised and that's how we are fulfilling it."
The Times of Israel reports that Greta Thunberg & her fellow Flotilla crew are being held in a special "terrorist" section of Ketziot prisonβor in "terrorist conditions," as Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's Minister of National Security put it.
