The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) has released its annual update on the fuel efficiency of US airlines. The US domestic fleet for the 13 airlines was found to be slightly younger in 2014 (average 11.5 years old, weighted by passenger-miles flown) than in 2013, while previous years showed an aging fleet.

Despite what appears to be a saturated oil market in 2014, oil producers around the world will struggle to meet rising demand over the next few decades. Global oil demand is expected to increase by 37 percent by 2040, with a dominant proportion of that coming from developing countries—i.e. million bpd by 2035.
