Yeah, assuming they don't get it on it, wouldn't the oil industry be the one who gets pissed?

Fusion energy will not be free. There will be a cost. The oil industry will have to simply adjust their prices or go out of business.

Not really. Still need petroleum for tons of products. Fertilizers, pesticides, plastics, asphault, medicines, paints, nylon, PTFE... the list is loooong. Plus, it lets then stretch out "inventory" (reserves) longer, greatly lowering their cost structure.

The bigger question is what do we do with all fuel and diesel? Burn it? Bury it?
