India is projected to lead global oil demand growth, adding 1 million barrels per day by 2030, driven by robust economic expansion. The International Energy Agency (IEA) anticipates India's crude oil demand to surge from 5.64 million bpd in 2024 to 6.66 million bpd in 2030. India's growth is attributed to increasing transport fuel needs and a burgeoning middle class, despite high import dependency. Global oil demand is expected to plateau near 105.5 million bpd by 2030.
