That was based off old technology of detection. We have found a lot more and can now extract a lot more.
Your claim is based on old technology from the view of someone 50 years in the future. It's always wrong.

But That doesn’t mean the earth is producing more.
How do you know?

If we agree oil is finite, then we acknowledge there is the potential for consumption to exceed capacity.
OK, I hypothetically agree that oil is finite. I predict that it will totally run out in 400,000 years.
You better start dropping all of your oil stocks.

ok - that’s a different debate.
Let’s say we’re not at half discovery as the earlier equation stated. Let’s say we are at a fraction of that. Let’s do 12%. So as of today, we have only discovered 12% of all oil that exists.
That means the Earth produces 320k barrels/ yr. Far short of the 90M/yr we consume.
400k years is probably a stretch.
