Vice President, Energy IntelligenceCrude Demand Is Growing, But Not Everywhere
Emerging markets are investing in new refining capacity to keep pace with population growth and rising fuel demand. In contrast, mature markets are focusing on retrofitting and maximizing the flexibility of existing assets.
Maintenance and Flexibility Are the New Competitive Edge
Refiners in saturated regions are extending asset life through major maintenance events, upgrades, and reconfiguration projects to stay competitive in an increasingly emissions-conscious world.
Emissions Pressure Is Reshaping Investment Priorities
Regulations and investor expectations are accelerating capital allocation toward efficiency projects, flare reduction, hydrogen integration, and co-processing of renewable feedstocks.
