Pie charts showing petroleum use? Anyone?

Unread postby gampy » Tue 30 Jan 2007, 23:33:39

Hi.

Hope this has not been posted already, but does anyone know what the breakdown of petroleum use is?

Gasoline?

Petrochemicals? (plastics vs. pharmaceuticals vs. "space age materials")

Home fuel oil?

Diesel?

Lubricants?

Etc?

I have been searching in vain for a pie-chart or something that would let me see, roughly, what percentage of the world's petroleum production is used for petrochemicals and transport fuel.

I think gasoline and jet fuel, diesel are the big ones, but just wanted to see the actual breakdown.

I will continue my "googlequest", but hopefully someone knows a link or two I might have missed.
