Despite the increases in production, EIA expects the Brent crude oil price to remain above $100 per barrel this year, according to the agency’s May 2022 Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO). Higher electricity prices mean that the average US household will pay about the same amount for electricity this summer as last summer.

Over the same period, energy intensity, a key measure of energy use per unit of economic output, is set to improve globally led by rapid efficiency gains in the same non-OECD economies, under these projections. OECD oil demand peaked in 2005 and in 2030 is projected to be roughly back at its level in 1990.
