Natural gas balance sheet; supply and consumption

This table shows the supply and the consumption of natural gas as a balance sheet. The supply of natural gas is calculated as the sum of indigenous production, production from other sources, imports minus exports, minus delivery of fuels for international shipping (bunkers) plus stock changes. The supply is equal to the amount of natural gas used in the Netherlands in the same period.

This consumption is broken down by how it's delivered by the gas distribution network. This consists of a main grid and connected regional grids. Large-scale consumers, like power plants and large companies, receive the gas directly from the main distribution network. Small-scale consumers, including households, receive their natural gas through the regional grids. Then a small amount of natural gas is used in the indigenous production and transportation of natural gas. Lastly, there is flared and vented natural gas.

Data available:
From 1946 annually and from 1982 annually, quarterly and monthly.

Status of the figures:
 - up to and including 2022 definite.
 - 2023 is revised provisional.
 - 2024 is provisional.

Changes as of November 29th 2024:
Figures of October 2024 have been updated.

Changes as of November 15th 2024:
Figures for October 2024 have been added. This table has also been revised for 2015 to 2021 as a result of new methods that have also been applied for 2022 and 2023. This concerns the following components: final energy consumption of LPG and the natural gas consumption of the wood and wood products industry has also been improved so that it is more comparable over time. This concerns changes of a maximum of a few PJ.

Changes as of Oktober 31st 2024:
Figures for September 2024 have been updated.

Changes as of October 15th of 2024:
Figures of September 2024 have been added.

Changes as of September 4th 2024:
Figures of liquefied natural gas (LNG) are reported per country of origin starting from reporting year 2021. Figures of 2021 have been revised conform new methods.

Changes as of August 28th 2024:
Provisional figures for July 2024 have been updated.

When will new figures be published?
Provisional figures: half a month after the month under review.
Revised provisional figures: not later than in June of the year following the reporting year.
Definite figures: not later than December of the second following year. 



本表展示了天然气供需平衡的财务报表。天然气的供应量计算为国内生产、其他来源生产、进口减去出口，再减去为国际航运（燃油）提供的燃料，以及库存变化的和。供应量等于在同一时期内荷兰使用的天然气量。此外，消费量按天然气通过天然气分配网络的方式进行了细分。该网络包括主干网和相连的区域电网。大规模消费者，如发电厂和大型企业，直接从主分配网络接收天然气。小规模消费者，包括家庭，通过区域电网获得其天然气。随后，一小部分天然气用于国内天然气生产和运输。最后，还有被燃烧和排放的天然气。
