The Western Axis Oil Position. Note by Secretary

1 Jan 1943

A N N E X CONCLUSIONS 1. The Western Axis oil economy has now reached a critical phase. This critical period will continue until the middle of 1943 when it is estimated that new synthetic plants, manufacturing annually about 1,000,000 tons of petroleum products, will come into production. This increase will considerably improve Germany's oil economy and will alleviate her present precarious position. 2. Effective measures against the Western Axis oil economy to obtain maximum results should be taken immediately and before the new plants come into operation.
