Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-05-21

British Petroleum occupies an important role
in meeting the free worlds expanding de-
mand for petroleum, which last year con-
tinued the postwar trend which has resulted
in doubling of world consumption of oil
products in the last ten years. This strong
demand lies in the growth of industrial ac-
tivity and improving standards of living and,
in the Eastern Hemisphere, in the more linn
tied capacity for increasing output of other
major sources of energy, especially coal.
There is every indication that this postwar
rate of expansion will be maintained until
nuclear power becomes available to supple
ment world energy resources on substan-
tial scale. Thus in the next ten years the
world petroleum industry may we'll be again
called upon to double its present output.
The rate of expansion can be expected, as
now, to be greater in the Eastern Henri
sphere, where BP has the bulk of its opera
tons. Also, the oil-producing territories of
the Middle East, in which BP has a substan-
tial position, are expected to contribute an
increasingly large proportion of the worlds
requirements.
