With all due respect to all oil producing nations and thanks for oil and gas you have produced for last 100 years....

What happens in the gulf when Oil is about to finish or Oil demand-supply is widening....
Offcourse entire world will be affected by this.
Came across one interesting website.....

http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/

Countries like UAE (Dubai especially) has successfully moved from Oil economy to market economy. But wheather its market economy will sustain without oil and gas.
What about others.....
How they are gearing up.
What period of oil we are looking at ?

How people will meet their energy, transport needs.
From where the money will come.....

Whats your take on this......

Yes

Abu Dhabi has switched over to solar in big way and big investment.

Still solar and tidal energy are expensive and not so used.

I hope some thing will come up till then .....

With the current Oil Price hikes... Other countries are starting to utilize the use of so-called "Alternative Fuels/ Oils". When this instance becomes a world-wide trend, the demand for Oil which is mostly coming from the Gulf region will become less...

That will be the dawn of a new world order, assuming of course that we all survive WW3 which will be all about controlling the last reserves of the precious juice. What we see today in US presence in the region is already the runner-up to such a struggle. But the other oil junkies, namely China, Russia and the EU won't just sit back and watch the US compromise their their strategic security. It will get real messy I assure you.
