#0183;#32;This strategy requires a big amount of investments in Ramp;D and producing procedures, so the possibility for substitutes to dominate the global energy mix until 2040 is very small. Bargaining Power of Buyers in Oil and Gas Industry. The main buyers of oil and gas products are: Refineries; National Oil Companies; International Oil and Gas companies

#0183;#32;Several substitutes have been proposed but generally, the noncyanide lixiviants thiourea, thiocyanate and thiosulphate are regarded as being the most realistic substitutes. These, along with a number of other possible alternatives, including halides and the recentlydeveloped coaloil agglomeration process, are reviewed individually in the discussion that follows.
#0183;#32;Fossil fuelscomprised primarily of energy sources from coal, oil, propane, and natural gasaccount for more than 80% of total energy consumption in the United States.
#0183;#32;These products are substitutes because they satisfy similar consumer needs and possess significant crossprice elasticity. The price of Pepsi, for example, has a direct correlation on the demand for Coke. Pepsi''s price increase yields a demand increase for Coke and vice versa.
