to continue to import roughly half of its crude oil supply for the foreseeable future, despite strong growth in renewable biofuels supply. In the case of residual oil, there is also relatively strong potential for near term economic impacts. Demand for liquid fossil fuels will require the US. Unconventional Fossil Energy”.

The five different fuel groups were those derived: from conventional petroleum; from unconventional petroleum; synthetically from natural gas, coal, or combinations of coal and biomass via the FT process; renewable oils; and alcohols. million bpd. Reduced GHG impact. For CTL, life-cycle GHG emissions would roughly double.

A new report from the National Research Council examines and, when possible, estimates, “hidden” costs of energy production and use—such as the damage air pollution imposes on human health—that are not reflected in market prices of coal, oil, other energy sources, or the electricity and gasoline produced from them.

Natural gas is projected to be the fastest growing fossil fuel, and coal and oil are likely to lose market share as all fossil fuels experience lower growth rates. OECD oil demand peaked in 2005 and in 2030 is projected to be roughly back at its level in 1990. The fuel mix changes over time, reflecting long asset lifetimes.
