Description

Abstract:
What if you knew, that 12 years from now, demand for your product would dramatically fall? What would you do?
The transportation sector is responsible for more than 60% of worldwide demand for petroleum products. However, recently, several countries have introduced policies banning the internal combustion engine (ICE) and/or supporting electric vehicles (EVs) which could have a major impact on this demand. Norway, India, The Netherlands, Germany, China and the UK have all made such announcements. Furthermore, the increasing affordability and reliability of EVs combined with their excellent maintenance and automation capabilities has driven EVs to become among the best-selling luxury cars available today.
There is no way to be certain what the new normal of 2030 may bring for petroleum transportation fuels and the automotive industry. Forecasts range from a world dominated by EVs and substantially reduced demand for oil, to scenarios where the impact to petroleum demand is less than a 10%. Whatever the future may bring, renewable energy paired with flexible and intelligent electric vehicles is emerging as a threat, and the petroleum and automotive industries are responding through a myriad of strategies.
Throughout history, even small disruptions in supply or demand has created major impacts on industry profitability. Based on case studies from around the world and work with large petroleum companies in Australia, this paper will discuss how leading companies are preparing for a post-ICE world and will consider what steps petroleum and automotive industry executives should be taking today to ensure that they remain vibrant and viable in the new normal of 2030 and beyond.
