3. Introduction Hydrocarbons will remain essential to
sustainable global economic development and prosperity for decades
to come. Yet meeting the worlds growing need for energy must be
reconciled with security of energy supply and environmental
protection. ENERGY EFFICIENCY: IMPROVING ENERGY USE FROM PRODUCTION
TO CONSUMER
4. Facts about oil and gas industry energy efficiency
Production efficiency: Saving energy along the supply chain: more
efficient exploration energy systems management co-generation of
heat and power and the recovery of waste heat from production units
using heat exchange improved process operations Improved Refinery
processes high-pressure pipelines
5. Consumers efficiency 18% of energy is consumed in the
production of fuels, the remaining 82% is consumed by end-use. 10%
improvement in the efficiency of oil use in transport and other end
uses would save the equivalent of one-half of all the energy used
by the oil and gas industry worldwide.
6. Well toWheels initiative The Well-to-Wheels initiative has
helped establish the impact of different fuels and vehicle engines.
Developed jointly by the: oil industry research body CONCAWE the
European Council for Automotive R+D and the European Commissions
Joint Research Centre. Well-to-Wheels calculates the energy use and
greenhouse gas emissions associated with different fuels and
powertrains, and the associated costs and benefits.

8. TedxBoulder - James Brew - The Value of Energy Efficiency
USA Example for Energy Efficiency According to James Brew if: USA
invest 520$ billion in energy efficiency, they will: Reduce USA
Annual Energy End-Use 23% until 220 -> Save 1,2$ Trillion for
USA economy and avoid the release of 1000 Gigatones of Green House
Emissions You can find the video here:
