Natural Gas Information

The Natural Gas Information data service contains time series of annual gas data for both OECD and non-OECD countries from 1960 to 2025. Country aggregates for OECD, IEA, and regional totals are included. 

In the OECD files, there are complete supply and demand balances and breakdown of trade by origin/destination. In the World files, there are data on production, total imports and exports, gross inland consumption, and breakdown of imports by origin.

Important licence information

Single user, multi-user or Enterprise?

Limited user licences (1 user, 5 users and 10 users) are appropriate as long as only the corresponding number of users can access or view the data. 

If more than 10 users need to access or view the data, you should purchase an Enterprise licence. If these users are in different locations or part of a subsidiary or affiliate, you should purchase a Global Enterprise licence.

If you intend to put the data in a shared application, platform or system, you should purchase an Enterprise licence. A Global Enterprise licence is needed if users viewing or accessing the data/derived data are in different locations or part of a subsidiary or an affiliate. 

For more details, see our terms and conditions.
