"Oil is a limited resource and it is essential to the economic well being of the nation."

Oil may be limited but not energy. There is NO reasonable limit to the supply of energy. The 1000 person town limit is too small of a market size to be comparable. The answer there would be simple - a basic rate for X and a rapidly rising rate above X. As the revenues rose from volumes above X - new supply would appear!
