EIA Lowers Demand Forecast

摘要

The US Energy Information Administration on Tuesday lowered its forecast for global oil demand next year, indicating that it expects a weaker recovery from leading consumers, such as the US. World oil consumption in 2010 is now expected to increase 1.1 million b/d to 85.22 million b/d. Last month, the agency thought global petroleum consumption would grow 1.26 million b/d to 85.40 million b/d.
