    Description

    The United States and China are the top largest consumers of oil in the world, totaling 19 million and 16.6 million barrels per day, respectively. In the last decade, the share of global oil consumption from Europe and North America have begun to decline, whereas consumption levels from Asia Pacific and other regions have risen. As other sources of energy become more cost effective and due to the prominence of new transportation technologies, oil consumption worldwide is expected to reach a peak in the near future. Refining oil Crude oil is refined into petroleum products, such as gasoline and diesel fuel, and used for a wide variety of products, although many refineries focus on transportation fuels. Generally, crude oil feedstocks are processed by an oil production plant and is an essential part of the downstream petroleum industry.

    Description

    Emissions from coal use in the United Kingdom totaled 448 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (MtCO₂) in 1960, but by 2023 had dropped to less than 20 MtCO₂. This is because the share of energy consumption in the UK covered by coal has dropped dramatically over the last half a century. In comparison, natural gas consumption in the UK has been increasing during this period, and as such, emissions from this energy source have risen significantly.

    Description

    Norway is the main supplier of both crude oil and natural gas liquids for the United Kingdom. In 2023, some 14.6 million metric tons of crude oil were imported from the U.S. - meaning the Scandinavian country recover its position as long-running main supplier from the United States. Nigeria, Libya, and Algeria round out the top five origin countries. In 2022, crude oil and NGL imports in the UK totaled around 43 million metric tons. Leading export destinations As an exporter, the UK sold more crude oil to the Netherlands than any other country. In 2023, exports to the Benelux country stood at nearly 11.7 million metric tons. This figure also includes crude oil volumes meant for transshipment or in transit to other destinations, like Belgium and Germany. Production of crude oil at home In 2023, the crude oil production in the UK amounted to 715,000 barrels per day. This was a decrease compared to the previous year and the lowest production volume since the country discovered offshore reservoirs. The UK has begun decommissioning many of its North Sea oil platforms and will continue doing so in the coming years. By 2030, the projected UK oil production is set to fall to some 26 million metric tons of oil equivalent.

    Description

    The United Kingdom’s electricity use has been declining since peaking at 357 terawatt-hours in 2005. In 2024, the UK's electricity increased on the previous year, amounting to 281 terawatt-hours. Electricity consumption in the UK typically follows a seasonal trend, peaking in the winter months. How electricity-intensive is the UK? Despite the continual decline in electricity consumption, the UK remains one of the largest electricity consumers in the world. In terms of per capita electricity consumption, however, the UK ranks low in comparison to other European countries such as Norway, Germany, and France. In 2023, it registered an average of 4,333 kilowatt-hours per person. The race towards a clean power mix In 2010, gas and coal accounted for roughly 75 percent of the UK's power mix. Since then, alongside the EU Renewables Directive, the UK agreed and created its own National Renewable Energy Plan, to increase the use of renewable sources and decrease its fossil fuel dependence. In the past decade, the share of energy consumption in the UK attributable to renewable energy increased slightly, although it was still a small percentage out of the total in 2023.

Description

The United States and China are the top largest consumers of oil in the world, totaling 19 million and 16.6 million barrels per day, respectively. In the last decade, the share of global oil consumption from Europe and North America have begun to decline, whereas consumption levels from Asia Pacific and other regions have risen. As other sources of energy become more cost effective and due to the prominence of new transportation technologies, oil consumption worldwide is expected to reach a peak in the near future. Refining oil Crude oil is refined into petroleum products, such as gasoline and diesel fuel, and used for a wide variety of products, although many refineries focus on transportation fuels. Generally, crude oil feedstocks are processed by an oil production plant and is an essential part of the downstream petroleum industry.
