Definitions
- Consumption: This entry is the total natural gas consumed in cubic meters (cu m). The discrepancy between the amount of natural gas produced and/or imported and the amount consumed and/or exported is due to the omission of stock changes and other complicating factors.
-
Consumption > Million tonnes oil equivalent:
Natural Gas: Consumption, Million tonnes oil equivalent, as of end of 2004
Notes: Others have less than 0.05 -
Consumption > Million tonnes oil equivalent > Share of total:
Natural Gas: Consumption, Million tonnes oil equivalent, share of total (%), as of end of 2004
Notes: Others have less than 0.05% - Consumption > Per capita: This entry is the total natural gas consumed in cubic meters (cu m). The discrepancy between the amount of natural gas produced and/or imported and the amount consumed and/or exported is due to the omission of stock changes and other complicating factors. Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.
- Imports: This entry is the total natural gas imported in cubic meters (cu m).
- Including LNG > Consumption by chemical industry > Per capita: Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.
- Including LNG > Consumption by households > Per capita: Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.
- Including LNG > Consumption by other industries and construction > Per capita: Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.
- Proved reserves: This entry is the stock of proved reserves of natural gas in cubic meters (cu m). Proved reserves are those quantities of natural gas, which, by analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated with a high degree of confidence to be commercially recoverable from a given date forward, from known reservoirs and under current economic conditions.
- Including LNG > Consumption by energy sector > Per capita: Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.

- Including LNG > Gross inland availability > Per capita: Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.
- Including LNG > Total resources > Per capita: Per capita figures expressed per 1,000 population.
- Proved > Reserves: This entry is the stock of proved reserves of natural gas in cubic meters (cu m). Proved reserves are those quantities of natural gas, which, by analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated with a high degree of confidence to be commercially recoverable from a given date forward, from known reservoirs and under current economic conditions.
