Global Oil Demand Expected to Rise by 6% by 2028, Reaching 105.7 Million Barrels per Day.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts a significant increase in global oil demand, projecting a 6% rise by 2028 to reach 105.7 million barrels per day (mb/d). This surge is attributed to robust demand from sectors such as petrochemicals and aviation, according to industry reports.
The United States, recognized as the world’s largest oil producer, is expected to maintain its leading position with an average production of 12.9 mb/d, surpassing previous records. As the nation’s oil consumption is also on the rise, reaching an estimated 20.4 million barrels per day this year, support services in the oil and gas industry become increasingly crucial.
