Depending on how much demand was lowered, prices might fall.
Oil companies haven't been promoting conservation or the development of alternative fuels, which you'd expect them to do, if they perceived it to be in their interest.
It's not a question of what scientists at oil companies think is worth doing, it's the direction that management at the companies decide to take.
What does your brother do in the oil business?
