In 1983 I worked in the Texas oil field on a workover rig. That's like a mini oil drilling rig whose sole purpose is to rehabilitate old wells that are pooping out. There are a lot of tricks to increase production on older/depleted oil wells. One of the best, if you can afford to wait, is to stop pumping it for a decade. Most oil bearing formations are something like a sponge. As you pump out the oil, you deplete the local formation, and oil from further out slowly leaks/oozes/migrates/flows in to "refill" the pumped out area.

None of that requires the use of the abiotic oil theory to explain.

All other things being equal, the faster you pump a formation, the more "damage" you cause and the less you will be able to extract in the long run, all other things being equal, which they never are.
