Actually if you think about it, they were probably right at that time. Technology has increased the amount of oil we can gain access to which is why we have so much in the US now. Prior to the shale oil fields becoming useable we were not producing much of anything.
It's not that we found any new oil, it's just technology made what was locked away, open for the taking.
