Quantifying the Petroleumscape: Using a stock driven Material Flow Analysis model to assess the possibilities for material circularity in the oil industry

This study sets out to assess the material based consequences of changes in future oil demand. In doing so, this study aims to quantify the physical, industrial petroleumscape. To achieve this, the evolution of the world’s petroleum infrastructures are modelled based on two SSP2 scenarios; a baseline scenario and a 1.5-degree scenario. This...
