SwissInfo has a video report on the conference:
Peak Oil (German)
Der Ölpreis liegt bei über 130 Dollar pro Barrel. Doch wie weiter, wenn die Ölvorräte langsam zur Neige gehen? In Basel haben Fachleute über diese Frage diskutiert.

Energy Bulletin
Yep. Don't rock the boat.
The first of the speakers to be shown on TV was Dr. Hartl, who explained to the Swiss public that oil production will continue to grow for quite a while. Then, they showed Prof. Ganser, who said in the excerpt shown that, when Peak Oil comes e.g. in 2015, it is better if we are prepared for it. Finally, they showed Dr. Campbell who philosophized in the excerpt shown about the physical nature of oil fields: they all mature and then start producing less and less oil.
The story ended with the observation of the commentator that all of the scientists agree that there is still enough oil for several decades to come, but ultimately, the flow of black gold will end.
