CO 2 per capita emissions from fossil fuel use and cement production from the top 5 emitting regions. savings stimulated by high oil prices led to a decrease of 3% in CO 2 emissions in the European Union and of 2% in both the United States and Japan. The United States remain one of the largest emitters of CO2, with 17.3

With prices expected to increase in the long term, however, the world oil price in real 2011 dollars reaches $106 per barrel in 2020 and $163 per barrel in 2040, according to IEO2013. To satisfy the increase in world liquids demand in the Reference case, liquids production increases by 28.3 million barrels per day.

This development has arisen from lower oil use in the transport sector (linked to efficiency improvements, higher oil prices and the economic downturn which has cut vehicle miles travelled) and a substantial shift from coal to gas in the power sector.

Comparison of coal consumption and CO 2 emissions for co-production and separate production of liquids and power. The main reason for the better performance and economics of the dry-feed [Shell] system is the larger fraction of CO and H 2 , the main reactants in a FT reaction, in the gasifier products compared to the GE system.

Global CO 2 emissions from fuel use and cement production by region. In addition to high oil prices and the financial crisis, the increased use of new renewable energy sources, such as biofuels for road transport and wind energy for electricity generation, had a noticeable and mitigating impact on CO 2 emissions.

A new study by the French institute Enerdata, commissioned by the European Federation for Transport & Environment (T&E), suggests that the European CO 2 standards for new vehicles due to come into effect in 2012 will lead not only to a European savings on oil (mainly via lower oil import volumes) but also to slightly lower global oil prices.

OPEC’s share of global oil production is set to increase to 46%, a position not seen since 1977. At the same time, oil—and gas—import dependency in the US is likely to fall to levels not seen since the 1990s, because of improved fuel efficiency and the increased share of biofuels. mmbpd by 2030 from 1.8
