Well, think about the things that we would lose without oil. Obviously, gasoline and with that automobiles, but also plastics, and anything petroleum based, like in medical supplies. How does this affect how your characters access other natural resources? What if there were some sort of breakthrough in technology that would help your characters improve their lives, but would end up having detrimental/apocalyptic consequences? Maybe a parallel event happened in the ancestor's diary, and therefore your MC knows it would turn out bad and has to try to stop this technological advance from taking place?
Just a thought, and if you want it, it's yours. Good luck!
