Industry Overview

Global oil demand in 2025 is expected to grow by 1.3 mb/d, y-o-y, unchanged from last month's assessment. Some minor adjustments were made in 1Q25, mainly due to the receipt of actual data. In the OECD, oil demand is expected to expand by about 0.1 mb/d, while non-OECD demand is forecast to increase by about 1.2 mb/d in 2025. In 2026, world oil demand is projected to rise by 1.3 mb/d, y-o-y, also unchanged from last month's assessment. The OECD is anticipated to grow by around 0.1 mb/d, y-o-y, in 2026, while demand in the non-OECD is expected to increase by about 1.2 mb/d, y-o-y. India holds a significant position in the global oil and gas industry due to its large and growing energy market. The EPC market for oil and gas in India has witnessed a growth rate of 10% CAGR over the past five years, driven by a) India's pipeline network has expanded significantly, with projects such as the Jagdishpur-Haldia-Bokaro-Dhamra Pipeline (JHBDPL) and North East Gas Grid gaining traction. b) The government's ambitious target of establishing CGD networks in over 400 districts has catalyzed demand for EPC services. C) Major refinery upgrades and capacity additions, including the Ratnagiri Refinery and Petrochemicals project, have bolstered EPC opportunities.
