Conventional oil reserves by country

Department of Energy). In these countries, most of the reserves are in the form of shale oil that has higher production costs than do conventional reserves.

This is a list of countries by proven oil reserves.Proven reserves are those quantities of petroleum which, by analysis of geological and engineering data, can be estimated, with a high degree of confidence, to be commercially recoverable from a given date forward from known reservoirs and under current economic conditions. Leading countries based on conventional oil reserves in 2017 (in million metric tons) This statistic shows the leading countries worldwide based on conventional oil reserves in 2017. In that year, Venezuela had approximately 47.39 billion metric tons of conventional crude oil reserves, and thus has the largest reserves of conventional oil worldwide. This is a list of countries by natural gas proven reserves based on The World Factbook (when no citation is given). or other authoritative third-party sources (as cited). Based on data from BP, at the end of 2009, proved gas reserves were dominated by three countries: Iran, Russia, and Qatar, which together held nearly half the world's proven reserves. With 300,878 million barrels of proven reserves, Venezuela has the largest amount of proven oil reserves in the world. The country's oil is a relatively new discovery. Previously, Saudi Arabia had always held the number one position. The oil sand deposits in Venezuela are similar to those in Canada. Leading countries based on conventional natural gas reserves worldwide in 2017 (in billion cubic meters) This statistic shows the leading countries based on conventional natural gas reserves worldwide in 2017. At that time, Russia had the world's largest conventional natural gas reserves, amounting to some 47.8 trillion cubic meters.

Based on data from OPEC at the beginning of 2013 the highest proved oil reserves including non-conventional oil deposits are in Venezuela (20% of global reserves), Saudi Arabia (18% of global reserves), Canada (13% of global reserves), and Iran (9%). This is a list of countries by natural gas proven reserves based on The World Factbook (when no citation is given). or other authoritative third-party sources (as cited). Based on data from BP, at the end of 2009, proved gas reserves were dominated by three countries: Iran, Russia, and Qatar, which together held nearly half the world's proven reserves. Venezuela holds the world’s largest proven oil reserves. The country’s proven oil reserve as of January 2013 stood at 297.57 billion barrels accounting for about one fifth of the world’s total proven oil reserve. The country produced 2.8million barrels of crude oil per day in 2012 with 149 active rigs. Energy > Oil > Reserves: Countries Compared. DEFINITION: According to Web definitions the term refers to the total amount of petroleum (oil) discovered in any given oil field or nation. Thus it can be said that Kuwait has xxxx millions of barrels (mb) of oil in the ground. Reserves include gas condensate and natural gas liquids (NGLs) as well as crude oil. Annual changes and shares of total are calculated using thousand million barrels figures.

However, OPEC nations continue to overshadow the world in terms of reserves, holding more than 80 per cent of the world’s proven oil reserves, according to current estimates. The bulk of OPEC oil reserves – 66 per cent – are in the Middle East. OPEC’s proven oil reserves currently stand at 1,199.71 billion barrels.

Proved oil reserves in Europe and Eurasia 2010-2018, by country U.S. oil reserves - ending stocks of crude oil excluding SPR Gazprom's of crude oil reserves in Russia by region 2014-2018 U.S. crude oil and lease condensate proved reserves increased by 6.8 billion barrels (19.2%) in 2017, as the combination of total discoveries of 5.7 billion barrels and net revisions, net acquisitions, and adjustments totaling 4.5 billion barrels exceeded 2017 annual production of 3.4 billion barrels (Figure 9a). This website highlights conventional and unconventional (continuous) oil and gas resources (such as shale gas) for more than 170 basins. Conventional Oil and Gas Assessments In 2012, the USGS completed a comprehensive assessment of priority basins throughout the world. Proven oil reserves in the United States were 43.8 billion barrels (6.96 × 10 ^ 9 m 3) of crude oil as of the end of 2018, excluding the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. The 2018 reserves represent the largest US proven reserves since 1972. Fig. 1 shows additional 2P conventional oil discoveries less demand, which gives the flux of oil into, or out of, the world conventional oil reserve inventory. Data below the zero flux axis indicates periods of net withdrawal from reserves. This first occurred in 1972 and has consistently occurred since 1980, indicating that conventional oil reserves have been in decline since then.

The country’s oil reserves mainly comprise of the oil sands of Alberta, Western Canada Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) and the offshore oil deposits in the Atlantic. Oil sands comprise of more than 90% of the country’s oil reserve. The Athabasca deposit in Alberta is the major oil sands deposit of the country. The findings are surprising, and go against conventional wisdom that Saudi Arabia and Venezuela hold the world’s largest oil reserves. The U.S. Energy Information Administration, for example, pegs Venezuela’s oil reserves at 298 billion barrels, the largest in the world.
