AUSTIN, Texas, May 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- TAP Management Austin TX reviews oil and gas consumption patterns and how they affect our global economy. Despite the recent focus on alternative fuel exploration, oil continues to play an essential role in our transportation infrastructure. In fact, ExxonMobil's most recent edition of Outlook for Energy predicts that by the year 2040, 90 percent of the global transportation methods will still be powered by petroleum fuels.
Gasoline, diesel and jet fuel provide a level of affordability, versatility and convenience that is unmatched by alternative energy resources. The dense amount of energy provided by these fuels, especially when compared to the concentration of other developed energy resources, is the primary reason for our continued reliance on petroleum.
