The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Demand for hydrocarbons may not go away, but increasing demand will go away."

Maybe in U.S., but not globally according to the XOM forecast. See slide 8.
mcusercontent.com - XOM Global Outlook COBT Oct

"The percentage share of total U.S. petroleum consumption by major end-use sectors in 2022 was:
transportation 66.6%"


As was pointed out in the presentation, light duty vehicle energy demand, may peak this decade but heavy duty trucking, aviation, marine and rail transportation will all be growing globally.

Industrial demand will be up as far as the eye can see...according to XOM of course.

P.S. Might be good to post a link referencing where you are getting your numbers.
