What are the major sources and users of energy in the United States?
May 18, 2012
The major energy sources in the United States are petroleum (oil), natural gas, coal, nuclear, and renewable energy. The major users are residential and commercial buildings, industry, transportation, and electric power generators. The pattern of fuel use varies widely by sector. For example, oil provides 93% of the energy used for transportation, but only about 1% of the energy used to generate electric power.

Vietnam Country Analysis Brief
May 9, 2012
Over the past decade, Vietnam has emerged as an important oil and gas producer in Southeast Asia, and the country’s economic growth has spurred energy consumption and investment in unexplored oil and gas basins. Vietnam commissioned its first oil refinery in 2009 causing crude exports to drop substantially. The country is self-sufficient in natural gas, and both production and consumption have grown six-fold over the past decade.

May 1, 2012
Peru is currently a net oil importer and a natural gas exporter, but rising exploration and development may lead to increased production and exports of both oil and gas in the next few years. Despite a decline in crude oil production, Peru’s total oil liquids output has increased in recent years as a result of the rising production of natural gas liquids. Peru is self-sufficient in natural gas and began exporting LNG in 2010.

Petroleum Supply Monthly
Apr 27, 2012
Supply and disposition of crude oil and petroleum products on a national and regional level. The data series describe production, imports and exports, movements and inventories.
Appendix C, consisting of a table showing Impact of Revisions on Major Series, is included with the latest release of the Petroleum Supply Monthly (PSM). Appendix C will now be a regular part of the PSM.
The table contains information on revisions to published statistics. It shows the published value in the PSM, the revised value, and the difference for the major product series. Except for crude oil field production and adjustments, the official published petroleum supply statistics are not changed to reflect revisions until publication of the Petroleum Supply Annual (PSA).
This table is provided as a service to analysts who need to know the latest available statistics. It should be used with caution because revisions to published data can change from month to month. In some cases, the pattern of revisions during the year is a poor indicator of final statistics that will be published in the PSA.
