Imagine a world fueled by sunshine and wind, where electric vehicles glide silently and homes stay warm with geothermal energy. It's a future many envision, but in the present, hydrocarbons – oil, natural gas, and their derivatives – still reign supreme. The global hydrocarbons market is a behemoth, valued at a staggering USD 5.1 trillion in 2022 and projected to reach USD 7.2 trillion by 2029.

A Complex Tapestry of Supply and Demand

Driving this market are intricate forces of supply and demand. On the supply side, factors like geopolitical tensions, resource depletion, and technological advancements play a crucial role. OPEC nations hold significant sway, while shale oil production in the US has disrupted traditional dynamics. Meanwhile, demand continues to rise, fueled by a growing global population and increasing industrialization, particularly in developing economies.
