Re-evaluation of Hydrocarbons origin is to be a necessary challenge

Although most of the worldwide scientific community accepted and supported the theory that oil and gas formed during remote geological eras, from organic matter under anaerobic conditions, on the bottom of the seas and oceans and that it migrated to the so-called rock collectors, exhaustible in time, in the last decades, some researchers brought forward the theory of inorganic origin (abiogene) of oil and gas formation, including the idea that it should be renewable. The detection and exploitation of the great oil and gas field White Tiger, located in the Vietnamese coasts, hosted in granite, impossible to explain using the biogenic theory, and the recent development of hydraulic fracturing technology for shale gas are at the frontier of a scientific leap which raises many other questions: is the oil era coming to an end or to a new beginning? If energy resources are renewable, how will the human society evolve? What long-term effects on the environment will be recorded by using polluting technologies?
