Oil executives and OPEC officials have repeatedly made the case for continued investment in oil, warning that prices will otherwise spike higher

Global demand for all forms of energy is forecast to rise by 23 per cent through 2045, OPEC Secretary General Haitham Al Ghais told a Nigerian oil and gas conference on Tuesday.

Al Ghais also said calls to limit or stop funding new oil projects were unrealistic and unwise. He acknowledged, however, the need for technology to tackle continued fossil fuel emissions. “We will require innovative solutions such as carbon capture utilization and storage, and hydrogen projects in addition to a circular carbon economy, which has received a positive endorsement from the G20.”
