Countries by natural gas proven reserves (2014), based on data from The World Factbook Natural gas production by region. This is a list of countries by natural gas production based on statistics from The U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA).
Although conventional natural gas production in China has increased rapidly since 2000, it has not kept up with demand, and China has increasing imports of gas. In 2011, China consumed 147 bcm of natural gas, but produced only 107 bcm; the remainder, 27 percent of national consumption, was imported. [6] Shale gas is seen as a way to reduce or ...
Due to constant announcements of shale gas recoverable reserves, as well as drilling in Central Asia, South America, Africa, and deepwater drilling, estimates are updated frequently. Since 2000, some countries, notably the US and Canada, have seen large increases in proven gas reserves due to development of shale gas , but shale gas deposits in ...
Wet natural gas is used for petrochemicals as well as gasoline (petrol). In 2022, the United States has led the world in both natural gas production and natural gas exports. Until 2022, Russia was the world's largest exporter of natural gas, exporting over 250 BCM of natural gas in some years. However, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine ...
China has announced retaliatory tariffs against the US after President Donald Trump imposed a 10% tax on all Chinese imports. The counter-measures include a 15% tax on coal and liquefied natural ...
The pipeline passes through 66 cities in the 10 provinces in China. [4] Natural gas transported by the pipeline is used for electricity production in the Yangtze River Delta area. There is a plan to replace coal with gas in Shanghai by 2010. The capacity of the pipeline is 12 billion cubic metres (420 billion cubic feet) of natural gas annually ...
The natural gas pipeline is an ambitious project to deepen trade between Russia and China. The pipeline already hit a snag as Moscow and Beijing face disagreements.
