Abstract
The international energy outlook (Conti et al, International energy outlook, (2016)) predicts that the energy demand worldwide will rise by 48% by 2040, with fossil fuels expected to contribute more than 75% in 2040. Petroleum and other liquid fuels are predicted to provide 30% of the total energy demand in 2040. To meet this demand, it may be necessary to target new sources of fossil fuels.
