IEA: Indian Oil Market

Healthy economic expansion, combined with dynamic population, urbanisation and industrialisation growth, will see India’s role in global oil markets rapidly increase towards 2030, with significant implications for its oil trade balances, climate ambitions and energy security goals. As energy transitions gather pace and China’s economy shifts gear towards a less energy-intensive phase, India will assume the position as the world’s largest source of oil demand growth this decade. In our 2023-2030 forecast period, India accounts for more than one-third of global oil demand growth.
