    Recently, the International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that by 2050, the electrification of transportation, industrial and residential heating will make the petrochemical industry a major consumer of crude oil, accounting for 55% of fossil fuel demand


    The IEA stated in its "Global Energy Outlook 2021" that under all potential backgrounds of the global energy structure, the use of crude oil as a raw material for the petrochemical industry will increase
