World oil: A long-term look

Paul S. Basile and Alexander Papin

Energy, 1981, vol. 6, issue 6, 529-541

Abstract: Oil needs and prospective supplies for the world over the next fifty years have been assessed as part of the energy studies at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) in Laxenburg, Austria. These analyses indicate needs of from 100 to 160 × 106 BPD (barrels per day) of liquid fuels, even with optimistic assumptions on improvements in oil-using technologies and massive substitutions away from oil wherever possible.
