Some stats I found with chat gpt:

global oil production: 103.5 mbd (million barrels of oil)

percentage not combusted: 15-20%

natural gas: 4,400 bcm (billion cubic meters)

percentage not combusted: 20-30%

not combusted meaning used as an input in some other industrial process such as petrochemicals as you mentioned.

Did you use chat gpt to find sources or did you have it generate those numbers?

Because if it's the latter those numbers are worthless.

It searched the web and cited sources.
