Global oil consumption barrels per day
Source: United States Energy Information Administration Crude Oil Definition: A mixture of hydrocarbons that exists in liquid phase in natural underground reservoirs and remains liquid at atmospheric pressure after passing through surface separating facilities. Depending upon the characteristics of the crude stream, it may also include 1. Small amounts of hydrocarbons that exist in gaseous This figure is far above the oil producing group's forecast for 2017 in which global oil demand is expected to be around 96.8 million barrels per day. This strengthening in global oil demand meant For the purposes of the GFP ranking, oil consumption is applied as a penalty to each nation, the higher its consumption the worse effect on a theoretical war effort. Oil consumption can be offset by the oil production value and this is factored in along with a given nation's proven oil reserves. Data presented on this list is through 2018. Values are presented in bbl/day (Barrels Per Day).
