Peak oil happened in 2006 ,from then on the production is on a plateau :

If in the future the production will rise over the 2006 level that means the peak oil did not happen in 2006.

Most of oil producing countries have already peaked , look at the graph from the first post.
The last major oil discoveries were in 1970-1980:
