摘要

THE demand for energy from the global chemicals industry is expected to rise by about 55% from 2010 to 2040 and account for 35% of the growth in the industrial sector, according to ExxonMobil's Outlook for Energy: A View to 2040, which was released on December 12, 2013. Most of the energy demand growth in the chemicals sector will be for the feedstocks to make the building blocks for a wide range of essential products. Fuel demand will grow more slowly as improvements to efficiency reduce demand growth.
