In the pretty pictures I have seen on peak oil it would appear to follow some form of bell curve. Not sure of the foundations that model rests on, but I would guess that they would be using something like that.

To a first approximation, it follows a logistic equation. It is "a" bell curve, but not "the" bell curve.
