The rebound would mark a turnaround from the largest drop in global demand since the oil crisis of the early 1980s. Oil demand dropped from a high of 86.5 million bbl/day in 2007 to 83.8 million in 2009. The last time the world experienced a severe decline in crude oil demand, nine years were required for it to reach 1979 levels.
