Do you need oil to sear steak?

Chef's answer
For high-temperature searing, it's best to use a refined oil with a higher smoke point. ... Let your pan start to warm on the burner over medium-to-high heat, and once it's warm (but before it's hot), add enough oil to well coat the bottom of the pan.

I would say no. The issue being is that olive oil has a pretty low smoke point and if you're trying to get a nice sear on a steak you need very high heat. Trying to get to this temperature will just fill your kitchen with smoke if you use olive in your pan. I have done this, it's not pleasant.

Dirty cooking grates don't sear new food.
