The world becomes increasingly reliant on expansion in Iran (which reaches 6 mb/d in 2040) and Iraq (7 mb/d in 2040) to balance the market. The focus for oil trade shifts decisively to Asia: the United States all but eliminates net imports of oil by 2040. the report said.
Global oil supply stood at 97.8 mb/d in October 2016.
The global gas demand also is expected to increase by 50 percent by 2040.
A cumulative $44 trillion in investment is needed in global energy supply in our main scenario. 60% of which goes to oil. gas and coal extraction and supply. including power plants using these fuels. and nearly 20% to renewable energies. An extra $23 trillion is required for improvements in energy efficiency.
