 Oil drilling is one of the major activities that is bieng doen in this current century to keep our engines running along. All the countries in the world depend on the oil that is being drilled and which is then pumped into the pipes so that it can reach us.

Of course this oil drilling has made the fortunes of few countries in the world and the main nations are the so called Arab nations like United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran. In fact, Russia too has a lot of oil. This oil drives their economies as they have nothing else in terms of manufacturing industry or the other industries.

At the other end of the spectrum are countries that are consumers of the oil and they practically represent the whole of the world and among them some have a very large demand of oil like India and China . The countries which are oil suppliers came together two decades to control the oil supply and hence make sure that the oil prices are always up. This cartel or the organization is known as the Organization Of Petroleum Exporting countries and it is commonly known as OPEC.

That said oil is definitely a resource which will be not there endlessly and they say that it takes about a million years for the oil to be formed. The way the consumption is growing there will be hardly any oil left in a few decades and that is definitely a cause for worry.

If you look around you will find that almost anything which is there either runs on electricity or fuel. This fuel dependence has caused deep economic troubles for a lot of countries.

To reduce the dependence of oil in future there are many companies and countries in the world who are trying to use the oil in a better conscious manner. For example in some countries or cities there is a walk to work day whereby no cars ply on the road and that means less of oil consumed in a day. Some effort there for sure.

Then search for alternative sources of energy is being done fervently so that we can get energy form sources which are not dependent on the fuel. Green cars are now being manufactured by all big carmakers.

Wind energy is being harnessed and also the ocean energy is being harnessed so that we can provide a good healthy future to our kids as well as have some oil left in the bowels of the earth for later consumption.
