Another analysis shows we’re already past peak
October 9th, 2007 by Jim JustA new analysis at The Oil Drum suggests that we may already be past the peak in world oil production. 
Impacts of Hurricane Katrina may have hidden the real peak in world oil production. If an adjustment is made for hurricane impacts, the peak month of production seems to be December 2005 on a crude and condensate basis, and September 2005 on an all liquids basis. The higher adjusted peaks, and greater declines since the adjusted peaks, further suggest that we may be post-peak.
