Whenever I hear of "oil subsidies", I follow up -- looking for what is meant.
It usually turns out that the subsidies are for small players prospecting, not the "big oil". Alternatively, there are subsidies for all businesses that oil companies take advantage of. Oil companies are less subsidized than solar companies, from what I've been able to see.
If you have other information sources, then I'd love to see them.
I wish we would lose the spin and just talk facts on these subjects.
