Still, with China reopening and global property growth, steel demand is expected to grow at 1.5% until 2028.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Iron Ore<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Built on the expected demand from our biggest trading partner, iron ore prices have continued to rise in early 2023 after a 50% drop in the previous period.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With major new supplies coming on board, the revenue from Fe is expected to decline from $121 billion in 2022\u201323 to around $75 billion by 2027\u201328.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Coal (metalurgical &amp; thermal)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Australia\u2019s coal earnings have remained solid, to say the least, surpassing iron ore as our most significant export last year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite this, demand for coal is expected to fall away as new technology arrives to decarbonise steel-making alongside new sources of clean energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Gas<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The LNG market has been a big beneficiary of the energy crisis stemming from the war in Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prices are expected to remain tight following the loss of Russia\u2019s supply but then ease by 2026 as new supply from the US, and Qatar comes online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Australia\u2019s LNG value will drop to around $47 billion by 2028.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Oil<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rise of Electric Vehicles will ultimately spell the end of the oil industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The current price of $88 a barrel will be the high point for the coming five years as demand falls and prices fall (are managed) to $68 per barrel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Australia\u2019s oil export earnings will fall sharply from $13.4 billion in 2022\u201323 to $9.8 billion in 2027\u201328.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Australian government has released the latest Resources and Energy update.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And while the numbers are strong across the board, change is in the wind, and some commodities are predicted to struggle as others thrive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That said, Australia\u2019s natural resource wealth has it in good stead for the coming five years as a stable driver of our economy and continued growth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Dust suppression is an enduring issue in the world of mining and energy.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Learn more about GRT\u2019s industry-leading and
