Oil price will skyrocket when we go into ww3

Yeah, and after it is over, one barrel of oil will cost 50 kopecks

On a serious note though, if we really go into WWIII, I'm afraid the price of oil will soon be irrelevant since there will be neither buyers nor sellers. As I understand it, crude oil is not very useful for lighting as well as heating caves, so we will have to wait for a few millennia until another round of civilization gets well under way

Even the coming nuclear war will have it's winners and losers just like WW2 did... For example, by "erasing" North America rest of the planet will live on with less ecosystems but societies can still function.

Indeed, some societies will survive, and they might even preserve some rudimentary technologies like wheels and stone axes, but the real question is how much oil will cost then, provided it will cost anything at all in the first place. By the way, rumors have surfaced recently that the elites have been massively building bunkers all over New Zealand...

Just in case, does NZ have any oil reserves?
