According to the Paris-based agency statement: In this year 2020, an exceptional 8% drop has been observed in the consumption of oil, global oil utilization will go back to pre-crisis levels in 2023 if Covid-19 is keeping under control in 2021.

International Energy Agency reinforced its view that global oil demand will rise around 2030, topping out at lower levels than forecast last year.
