Quote from Pekelo:

You gave 2 contradictory datas in your post. First said we used 80 mbpd in 2003, then you said we use today 68.

The first one was the correct and today we use 82 or so.A target of 118 would give a 50% increase, end of story...
More...

I don't want to split hairs with you, but I never said, not once, that we use 80 million barrels per day. Maybe someone else said 80 million.

I said we currently use 68 million, based on that source I linked to, which is a 2006 June report.

Peace.
 
With EIA data to the end of 2006 now available, here are the key figures and comparison to 2005:

Crude Oil and Condensate: 73.5 Mb/d (down 0.2)
Natural Gas Liquids (NGLs): 7.9 Mb/d (up 0.14)
Other Liquids: 3.3 Mb/d (up 0.08)
Total Liquids: 84.6 Mb/d (up an insignificant 0.02)
