Energy Brief Oil Outlook 2006 Paul Maidment and Lacey Rose, 11.16.05, 9:00 AM ET NEW YORK - We are consuming oil faster this year than previously thought--and there's no sign of slowing down. In fact, the International Energy Agency (IEA) now forecasts that the world will consume 115.4 million barrels per day by 2030, up from 82.1 million barrels per day in 2004.
