Most of the growth is expected to come from non-OECD countries, where demand is seen rising by 1.15 million bpd to 59.31 million bpd, led by Asian countries. Demand in OECD countries is projected to rise by just 140,000 bpd to 45.83 million bpd, driven mainly by OECD Americas and supported by a slight increase in OECD Europe, while OECD Asia-Pacific demand is forecast to decline slightly year-on-year. For 2026, OPEC expects demand to grow by around 1.38 million bpd, reaching 106.52 million bpd.
