Disclaimer
The data series for proved oil and gas reserves in BP Statistical Review of World Energy June 2013 does not
necessarily meet the definitions, guidelines and practices used for determining proved reserves at company
level, for instance, under UK accounting rules contained in the Statement of Recommended Practice,
‘Accounting for Oil and Gas Exploration, Development, Production and Decommissioning Activities’ (UK SORP)
or as published by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, nor does it necessarily represent BP’s view of
proved reserves by country. Rather, the data series has been compiled using a combination of primary official
sources and third-party data.

3. Group chief executive’s introduction
Energy in 2012 – adapting to a changing world
Welcome to the 62nd edition of the BP Statistical Review of World Energy.
Over the years, this review has established itself in the energy world as a valuable work of reference,
documenting the changing patterns in the way we produce and consume our energy.
It provides an annual opportunity to examine the latest data, country-by-country and fuel-by-fuel.
This helps us discern the important trends and assess the challenges and the opportunities that lie
before us. This edition of the review highlights the flexibility with which our global energy system
adapts to rapid global change.
The year 2012 saw a slowdown in the growth of energy consumption globally, partly as a result of the
economic slowdown but also because individuals and businesses have responded to high prices by
becoming more efficient in their use of energy. At the same time, the review shows that the supply
of energy is coming from an increasing diversity of sources as the world’s energy market continues
to adapt, innovate and evolve.
Brazil, China, the EU, India, Japan, Russia and the US all saw below-average growth in energy
consumption. Indeed, consumption growth of all forms of fossil energy was below average.
On the supply side, the most noticeable phenomenon remains the American shale revolution. In 2012,
the US recorded the largest oil and natural gas production increases in the world, and saw the largest
gain in oil production in its history.
2012 highlighted the
flexibility of the world’s
energy markets.
Elsewhere, for a second year, disruptions to oil supply in Africa and parts of the Middle East were offset
by growth among OPEC producers. Libyan production recovered strongly after the sharp drop in output
in 2011, and Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar all produced at record levels. However, despite these
supply increases, oil prices reached another record high.
Coal remained the fastest-growing fossil fuel, with China consuming half of the world’s coal for the first
time – but it was also the fossil fuel that saw the weakest growth relative to its historical average.
Bob Dudley
While natural gas grew at a below-average rate, it was the only fossil fuel to see consumption growth
accelerate in 2012. Cheaper natural gas competed strongly with coal in North America, displacing it as
a power feedstock. Hydroelectric and renewable energy also competed strongly against coal globally;
renewables in power generation grew by 15%. However in Europe, where gas was more expensive,
coal was often the fuel of choice for power generation, while the LNG tankers that used to supply
Europe turned towards Asia.
Global nuclear power output had the largest decline ever, with Japanese output falling by nearly 90% as
the response to the tragedy at Fukushima continued to unfold. Fossil fuel imports rose to compensate.
In these and many other ways, 2012 highlighted the flexibility of the world’s energy market and the
innovative approaches that consumers and producers take in response to change.
Our mission as an industry is to find and produce the many forms of energy needed to meet growing
demand, safely and sustainably. This review will continue to chart our progress in fulfilling that mission
as well as helping to illuminate the options for our future direction.
It is a great source of information for people in government, industry, academia and elsewhere and
I hope that you will find it useful.
In concluding, let me thank BP’s economics team and all those around the world who have helped
prepare this review – in particular those in governments in many countries who contribute their
official data.

4. 2012 in review
On the back of slower economic growth, global energy
consumption growth in 2012 slowed significantly.
Darling Harbour, Sydney, Australia (above right).
Once again, all of the net growth took place in emerging economies, with China and India alone
accounting for nearly 90% of the net increase in global energy consumption. OECD consumption
declined for the fourth time in the past five years, led by a large decline in the US. Despite the
slowdown, consumption and production reached record levels for all fuels except nuclear power
and biofuels. The data suggests that growth in global CO2 emissions from energy use continued
in 2012, but at a slower rate than in 2011.
Energy price developments were mixed. Brent, the international crude oil benchmark, saw annual
average prices reach record levels (in money-of-the-day terms), although annual prices declined
slightly on an inflation-adjusted basis. Crude oil prices peaked in March following a decline in Iranian
exports, but eased thereafter in the face of rising output in the US, Libya, and other OPEC producers.
Oil production growth in the US was the largest in the world in 2012, and the largest in the country’s
history. In response, the differential between Brent and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) reached
another record premium, although the gap began to narrow later in the year as infrastructure
bottlenecks in the US eased.
Natural gas prices rose in Europe and Asia, but fell in North America, where rising US natural gas
output pushed gas prices to record discounts against both crude oil and international gas prices.
Coal prices declined in all regions.
+1.8%
Growth in global primary
energy consumption.

Energy developments
World primary energy consumption grew by 1.8% in 2012, well below the 10-year average of 2.6%.
Consumption in OECD countries fell by 1.2%, led by a decline of 2.8% in the US (the world’s largest
decline in volumetric terms). Non-OECD consumption grew by 4.2%, below the 10-year average
of 5.3%. Global consumption growth was below average for each fossil fuel and for nuclear power;
regionally growth was below average everywhere except Africa. Oil remains the world’s leading
fuel, at 33.1% of global energy consumption, but it also continued to lose market share for the 13th
consecutive year and its current market share is the lowest in our data set, which begins in 1965.

5. Oil
-1.3%
Decline in OECD oil consumption, the sixth
decrease in the past seven years.
+1million b/d
Growth of US oil production, the largest
in the world.
Dated Brent averaged $111.67 per barrel in 2012, an increase of $0.40 per barrel from the 2011 level.
The loss of Iranian supplies was more than offset by growth in the US, the recovery in Libyan
production, and increases in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere in OPEC.
Global oil consumption grew by 890,000 barrels per day (b/d), or 0.9%, below the historical average.
Oil had the weakest global growth rate among fossil fuels for the third consecutive year. OECD
consumption declined by 1.3% (530,000 b/d), the sixth decrease in the past seven years; the OECD
now accounts for just 50.2% of global consumption, the smallest share on record. Outside
the OECD, consumption grew by 1.4 million b/d, or 3.3%. China again recorded the largest increment
to global consumption (+470,000 b/d, +5%) although the growth rate was below the 10-year average.
Japanese consumption grew by 250,000 b/d (+6.3%), the strongest growth increment since 1994.
Light distillates were the fastest-growing refined product category by volume for the first time
since 2009.
Global oil production, in contrast, increased by 1.9 million b/d, or 2.2%. OPEC accounted for about
three-quarters of the global increase despite a decline in Iranian output (-680,000 b/d) due to
international sanctions. Libyan output (+1 million b/d) nearly regained all of the ground lost in 2011.
For a second consecutive year, output reached record levels in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar.
Iraq and Kuwait also registered significant increases. Non-OPEC output grew by 490,000 b/d, with
increases in the US (+1 million b/d), Canada, Russia and China offsetting unexpected outages in
Sudan/South Sudan (-340,000 b/d) and Syria (-160,000 b/d), as well as declines in mature provinces
such as the United Kingdom and Norway.
Global refinery crude runs increased by a below-average 480,000 b/d, or 0.6%. Non-OECD countries
accounted for two-thirds of the net increase, rising by 320,000 b/d. OECD throughputs grew by
160,000 b/d, with continued throughput declines in Europe more than offset by throughput increases
in North America, where the US consolidated its position as a net product exporter. Global refinery
capacity utilization improved to 82.4%; global refining capacity increased by a modest 360,000 b/d
overall, but large capacity additions East of Suez were largely offset by substantial capacity reductions
in and around the Atlantic Basin.
Global oil trade in 2012 grew by 1.3%, or 0.7 million b/d. At 55.3 million b/d, trade accounted for 62% of
global consumption, up from 57% a decade ago. The relatively small global increase hides large regional
changes. US net imports fell by 930,000 b/d and are now 36% below their 2005 peak. Conversely,
China’s net oil imports grew by 610,000 b/d, 86% of the global increase. Growth in net exports from
Canada and North Africa, together with reduced US oil import dependence, offset declining exports
from several regions.

6. Natural gas
-0.9%
The first decline on record
for global LNG trade.
23.9%
Natural gas’s share of global
primary energy consumption.
World natural gas consumption grew by 2.2%, below the historical average of 2.7%. Consumption
growth was above average in South & Central America, Africa, and North America, where the US
(+4.1%) recorded the largest increment in the world. In Asia, China (+9.9%) and Japan (+10.3%) were
responsible for the next-largest growth increments. These increases were partly offset by declines
in the EU (-2.3%) and the Former Soviet Union (FSU) (-2.6%). Globally, natural gas accounted for 23.9%
of primary energy consumption. OECD consumption grew more rapidly than non-OECD consumption
for the first time since 2000.
Global natural gas production grew by 1.9%. The US (+4.7%) once again recorded the largest
volumetric increase and remained the world’s largest producer. Norway (+12.6%), Qatar (+7.8%), and
Saudi Arabia (+11.1%) also saw significant production increases, while Russia (-2.7%) had the world’s
largest decline in volumetric terms.
Global natural gas trade was very weak, growing by just 0.1% in 2012. Pipeline shipments grew by
0.5%, with declines in net Russian exports (-12%) partly offset by growth in Norwegian exports (+12%).
US net pipeline imports dropped by 18.8%. Global LNG trade fell for the first time on record (-0.9%):
a decline in net European LNG imports (-28.2%) was offset by net increases in Asia (+22.8%). Among
exporters, an increase in Qatari (+4.7%) shipments was nearly offset by a decline in Indonesia (-14.7%).
LNG’s share of global gas trade declined slightly to 31.7%.

7. Other fuels
50.2%
China’s share of global
coal consumption.
-89%
Decline in Japanese
nuclear output.
4.7%
Share of global power generation
met by renewables.
Coal consumption grew by 2.5% in 2012, well below the 10-year average of 4.4% but still the
fastest-growing fossil fuel. Consumption outside the OECD rose by a below-average 5.4%; Chinese
consumption growth was a below-average 6.1%, but China still accounted for all of the net growth in
global coal consumption, and China accounted for more than half of global coal consumption for the
first time. OECD consumption declined by 4.2% with losses in the US (-11.9%) offsetting increases
in Europe and Japan. Global coal production grew by 2%, with growth in China (+3.5%) and Indonesia
(+9%) offsetting a decline in the US (-7.5%). Coal reached the highest share of global primary energy
consumption (29.9%) since 1970.
Global nuclear output fell by 6.9%, the largest decline on record for a second consecutive year;
Japanese output fell by 89%, accounting for 82% of the global decline. Nuclear output accounted for
4.5% of global energy consumption, the smallest share since 1984. Global hydroelectric output grew
by an above-average 4.3%, with China accounting for all of the net increase. Hydroelectric output
reached 6.7% of global energy consumption, the highest share on record.
Renewable energy sources saw mixed results in 2012. Global biofuels production recorded the first
decline since 2000 (-0.4%, or -0.1 mtoe), due to a decline in the US (-4.3% or -1.2 mtoe). In contrast,
renewable energy used in power generation grew by 15.2%, slower year-on-year growth for the
first time since 2008 but still slightly above the historical average. Wind energy (+18.1%), accounted
for more than half of renewable power generation growth, with China (+34.6%) accounting for the
largest increment in wind generation. Solar power generation grew even more rapidly (+58%), but
from a smaller base. Renewable forms of energy accounted for 2.4% of global energy consumption,
up from 0.8% in 2002; renewables in power generation accounted for a record 4.7% of global
power generation.

Notes: Proved reserves of oil – Generally taken to be those quantities that geological and engineering information indicates with reasonable certainty can be recovered in the future from
known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.
Reserves-to-production (R/P) ratio – If the reserves remaining at the end of any year are divided by the production in that year, the result is the length of time that those remaining reserves
would last if production were to continue at that rate.
Source of data – The estimates in this table have been compiled using a combination of primary official sources, third-party data from the OPEC Secretariat, World Oil, Oil & Gas Journal and an
independent estimate of Russian and Chinese reserves based on information in the public domain.
Canadian oil sands ‘under active development’ are an official estimate. Venezuelan Orinoco Belt reserves are based on the OPEC Secretariat and government announcements.
Reserves include gas condensate and natural gas liquids (NGLs) as well as crude oil.
Shares of total and R/P ratios are calculated using thousand million barrels figures.

World proved oil reserves at the end of 2012 reached 1668.9 billion barrels, sufficient to meet 52.9 years of global production. An increase in official Iraqi reserves was
the single largest addition, adding 6.9 billion barrels. OPEC members continue to dominate, holding 72.6% of the global total. South & Central America continues to
hold the highest R/P ratio. Global proved reserves have increased by 26%, or nearly 350 billion barrels, over the past decade.

World oil production increased by 1.9 million b/d in 2012, more than double the growth of global consumption. US output grew by 1 million b/d, the largest increase in the
world and in the country’s history. The recovery in Libyan production drove robust growth in African output. Global oil consumption grew by just 890,000 b/d, with declines
in Europe and North America offsetting gains elsewhere.

Global crude runs grew by 0.5 million b/d in 2012, with increases in China, India and the US more than offsetting declines in Europe and South & Central America. Global
refining capacity growth of a net 0.4 million b/d masks large additions in Asia Pacific and significant capacity reductions in Europe and the Caribbean. Global average
refinery utilization improved marginally to 82.4%, the highest since 2008.

Note: The refining margins presented are benchmark margins for three major global refining centres: US Gulf Coast (USGC), North West Europe (NWE – Rotterdam)
and Singapore. In each case they are based on a single crude oil appropriate for that region and have optimized product yields based on a generic refinery configuration
(cracking, hydrocracking or coking), again appropriate for that region. The margins are on a semi-variable basis, i.e. the margin after all variable costs and fixed energy costs.

Notes: Proved reserves of natural gas – Generally taken to be those quantities that geological and engineering information indicates with reasonable certainty can be recovered in the future
from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.
Reserves-to-production (R/P) ratio – If the reserves remaining at the end of any year are divided by the production in that year, the result is the length of time that those remaining reserves
would last if production were to continue at that rate.
Source of data – The estimates in this table have been compiled using a combination of primary official sources and third-party data from Cedigaz and the OPEC Secretariat.

World proved natural gas reserves at end-2012 stood at 187.3 trillion cubic metres, sufficient to meet 55.7 years of global production. Proved reserves declined by 0.3%
relative to end-2011 data, the first annual decline in our data set. Revisions were made to the earlier published estimates for proved reserves in the Former Soviet Union
(FSU) countries, which lowered the FSU R/P ratio to 71 years, from 96.3 years at end-2011 in last year’s edition.

Notes: As far as possible, the data above represents standard cubic metres (measured at 15ºC and 1013 mbar); as they are derived directly from tonnes of oil equivalent using an average
conversion factor, they do not necessarily equate with gas volumes expressed in specific national terms.
Annual changes and shares of total are calculated using million tonnes of oil equivalent figures.
Natural gas production data expressed in billion cubic feet per day is available at bp.com/statisticalreview.
Growth rates are adjusted for leap years.

†Less than 0.05.
Source: Includes data from Cedigaz.
◆Less than 0.05%.
Notes: As far as possible, the data above represents standard cubic metres (measured at 15ºC and 1013 mbar); as they are derived directly from tonnes of oil equivalent using an average
conversion factor, they do not necessarily equate with gas volumes expressed in specific national terms.
The difference between these world consumption figures and the world production statistics is due to variations in stocks at storage facilities and liquefaction plants, together with unavoidable
disparities in the definition, measurement or conversion of gas supply and demand data.
Annual changes and shares of total are calculated using million tonnes of oil equivalent figures.
Natural gas production data expressed in billion cubic feet per day is available at bp.com/statisticalreview.
Growth rates are adjusted for leap years.
