Global natural gas consumption 1998-2017

The data displays the natural gas consumption worldwide from 1998 and 2017. In 2017, global natural gas consumption amounted to around 3.7 trillion cubic meters. According to the source, these data represent standard cubic meters (measured at 15°C and 1,013mbar) where possible. Since the figures were derived directly from tons of oil equivalent using an average conversion factor, it does not necessarily equate with gas volumes expressed in specific national terms.
