In a recent address at the 27th St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin projected a 90% rise in India's end-use energy consumption by 2050, marking one of the fastest growth rates globally.
Sechin, speaking to global business and political leaders, provided a comprehensive analysis of the energy market's current state and its future challenges. In his keynote titled 'Energy transition and phantom barrels,' he also projected India to become one of the top three largest economies with a GDP of USD 5 trillion in five years and to overtake the US by 2050.
