The dark, often viscous liquid is the single biggest contributor to the world’s energy mix, at 34 per cent of consumption, followed by coal at 27 per cent and natural gas at 24 per cent. In 2019, global demand reached a record 100 million barrels a day, driven in part by the needs of rapidly industrialising emerging markets.
