The centre is working to raise international public awareness and promote better understanding of the world's oil depletion and peak oil problem. It is based in London and belongs to the New Economics Foundation. ODAC was founded in June 2001 on the belief that an informed public debate about the likely impacts of depleting oil supplies is critically needed. A growing number of experts now predict that world oil production has peaked or will reach its physical peak within the coming decade and then start to permanently decline. The prevailing view of most energy policy-makers and institutions is that near-term oil supply is mainly an economic and geopolitical concern. Under almost any scenario, however, lead time is running short for a smooth transition to new energy systems and a less oil-dependent way of life. On March 30, 2012, the activities of the Oil Depletion Analysis Centre (ODAC) were taken over by its parent organisation, the New Economics Foundation (NEF). AimsODAC aims to engage public interest, stimulate concern and create public-interest momentum for progressive change in energy policy and planning. The organisation disseminates related information as effectively as possible to news media, other opinion-formers and leaders, interest groups and the public at large. It seeks to facilitate information exchanges between and among interested parties and monitors developments in oil-depletion analysis, maintains an up-to-date information base, and offers an advisory service on oil-depletion issues. HistoryThe organisation was founded by Sarah Astor and Dr. Colin Campbell. In his book Oil Crisis Campbell explains that the Astor family wanted to establish and provide funds for an institute to raise awareness on this issue of oil depletion and peak oil.[1] The first director was Dr. Roger Bentley. PublicationsIn 2004, ODAC sponsored Chris Skrebowski's report, called "Oil Field Megaprojects", which analysed data from 68 oil production projects.[2] In November 2005, ODAC published a report after conducting a survey led by Chris Skrebowski, which concluded that oil supply will not meet demand by 2007 or 2008.[3] In June 2007, a report authored by Colin Campbell predicted that peak oil would occur within four years.[4] Trustees
