Crude Oil, Natural Gas, and Natural Gas Liquids Reserves, 2001 Annual Report, DOE/EIA-0216 (2001) (November 2002). Table modified from Energy Information Administration/International Energy Annual 2001.
Notes. Sum of components may not equal total due to independent rounding. All reserve data except those for the Former U. S.S. R. and natural gas reserves in Canada are proved reserves. Former U. S.S. R. data are ‘‘explored reserves,’’ which are understood to be proved, and some probable. World Oil only reported disaggregated data for the Former U. S.S. R. Republic of Russia. Aggregated data for the other Republics of the Former U. S.S. R. were reported as 11.5 billion barrels of crude oil and 235.2 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
aData for the United States are from the Energy Information Administration.
^Includes one-half of the reserves in the Neutral Zone.
NA, not available; (s), value less than 50 million barrels of crude oil or less than 50 billion cubic feet of natural gas.
