The forecast for the final consumption of gas oil and diesel oil in France's fishing sector from 2024 to 2028 shows a slow but steady decline. From 13.63 thousand terajoules in 2024, the consumption is projected to decrease incrementally to 13.19 thousand terajoules by 2028. This reflects a consistent decrease of approximately 0.93% per year, indicating a slight but ongoing reduction in usage per year.
In 2023, the consumption stood at 13.74 thousand terajoules. Comparing this to the forecast for 2024, we see a decrease of roughly 0.8%, supporting the trend of decreasing fuel consumption over the years. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over this five-year period is projected to be negative, reinforcing the pattern of gradual reduction in demand.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in fuel consumption due to technological advancements in fuel efficiency, changes in fishing policies or regulations, and the growing importance of sustainability which may encourage further reductions or alternative energy sources.
