Global daily consumption exceeds 105 million barrels
According to authoritative sources, the world’s daily oil consumption exceeds 105 million barrels and continues to grow.
Specifically, the average daily consumption in 2025 is estimated to be about 103.9 million barrels, and it is expected to increase to approximately 105 to 106.5 million barrels by 2026. This number will fluctuate across different quarters; for example, in Q4 2025, the daily average consumption is projected to reach 104.66 million barrels.

Historical data shows that global oil consumption has been increasing for several consecutive years, with an average of 101.8 million barrels per day in 2024, setting a new record high.

Based on a daily increase of 1.5 million barrels in 2025, that amounts to about 550 million barrels, enough for global consumption for a week. Without additional production, the daily increase can be somewhat absorbed, which is why there is immediate large-scale selling at critical points—also a short-term reaction to war predictions. Iran’s conflicts and geopolitical tensions
Under the influence of geopolitical and wartime factors, consumption will further increase. In the event of war in major oil-producing countries in the Middle East and damage to oil wells and facilities, normal operations will be disrupted, causing a sharp drop in oil output. This will impact countries with low storage reserves, especially Europe, leading to chaos. Everyone will join the fight, and if the conflict ends quickly, the battlefield will expand, making stability even harder to achieve. Not joining the fight is like bearing the burden of refugees. As a result, oil and gas prices are bound to continue rising.
Today’s news suggests that Russia and China might be allowed to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. If ships can pass through, can they load oil quickly—perhaps a large ship can be loaded in minutes? Or will it just be a matter of allowing our cargo ships to pass? These news reports are often about emotional sentiment, and the ongoing tug-of-war suggests we have become oil-exporting countries, which defies logic.

Based on this, oil prices may surge to astonishing levels. Will strategic reserves and oil prices skyrocket? We look forward to market validation.
