I don’t see why not. Although it may be comforting to see purpose in every
big event I think shit just happens, and when the technology of fracking
got good enough oil companies in the USA started using it big time.
Besides, I don’t thing governments have the brains to successfully carry
out multi-year plans and keep them secret too.

Incidentally it’s not just oil that suffered a price collapse in recent
days, other commodities have too most notably copper, which makes me think
that the Tea Party buffoons who think runaway inflation is just around the
corner have as usual got it exactly wrong and it is far more likely that
the real thing to worry about is deflation.
