In this thesis, a typical separation of fuel types and the demand and consumption of petroleum products from 2015 to 2021 in the Greek territory are analyzed. Following this, the imports of fuels such as natural gas, coal and oil from Russia mainly for 2021 are presented in a detailed manner.
In the next section, data concerning LPG such as its composition and general characteristics are reported. A detailed analysis of its advantages and disadvantages as well as a consequent conclusion is also provided. The indirect contribution of LPG to the protection of natural resources is also considered. It also analyses the risks of LPG and the safety measures to be taken to avoid accidents. Finally, all the ways of transporting LPG and the method of refining LPG are presented in detail.
In the third section, the main categories of the LPG market, the global LPG market, the LPG market in Europe and Greece and the prospects for the LPG market in Europe are described in detail. This is followed by the Porter model, through which the analysis of the competitive forces shaping this industry in Greece was carried out.
In the last section, the effects of the Russia-Ukraine conflict on the energy sector in the EU were extensively analyzed, followed by an analysis of the energy sector imports in Greece from Russia, recent developments in the energy sector, based on which a conclusion was drawn on the magnitude of the impact, due to the energy crisis, in the EU energy sector. Finally, based on the answers to the questionnaires given by a random sample within the Greek territory, an attempt was made to predict the future demand for LPG mainly for domestic use and transport. In addition to all the above, through my research were captured all peoples' concerns and doubts who use or are going to use LPG in the future. Except for that, the future trend of the fuel market emerged.
