Demand, climate change concerns, and government regulations are seen to impact market dynamics considerably.

Lucintel’s research indicates that after decline in 2009, the industry showed signs of recovery as there was an increase in industry size in 2010, primarily due to recovery of APAC economy from 2009 economic crisis.
As per the study, increased regulatory environment, geo-political risk, health, safety and environmental risk, occasional oil spills, and human capital deficit are some of the challenges for the industry. Increasing oil and gas demand from emerging economies, discovery of new oil and gas reserves, increasing exports and imports of oil, and oil products are anticipated to boost the industry. APAC and the Middle East are projected to lead the industry with a strong demand for crude oil by developing countries such as India and China, growth in income and the accompanying changes in petroleum demand are driven by an ongoing population shift from rural to urban areas; a continuous increase in the demand of petroleum productsis thus expected in the near future. A rise in product demand is set to drive capacity expansions in APAC.
