Table explanation
This table provides information on deliveries of motor fuels for transport in the Netherlands. Deliveries are either for consumption in the Netherlands and international road transport, which is called final consumption, or for international sea and air transport, which is traditionally called bunkering.
The table gives figure for all modes of transport. Agricultural and mobile equipment is excluded. Figures for relevant motor fuels are given by transport category. Pure biofuels for road transport are not included in this table. Blended biofuels are included in the deliveries of motor gasoline and transport diesel. Biofuels are products produced from agricultural crops.
Deliveries of motor fuels are expressed by energy (petajoules) and physical units (million kg or million kWh). Deliveries for road transport are also published in volume (million litres). This table includes figures (in petajoules) on total transport, total road transport, total water transport, total air transport and total rail transport. This is not possible for physical units, due to different units (e.g. kg and kWh) are not countable.
Data available from:
From 1946 up to and including August 2016
Status of the figures:
All figures from 1946 to December 2013 are definite.
Figures from January 2014 onwards are provisional.
Changes as of 2 December 2016
None, this table has been stopped. For more information see section 3.
When will new figures be published?
Not applicable.
Description topics
- Motor fuels for transport petajoule
- Amounts of substances, expressed in petajoules, combusted for the propulsion of vehicles transporting persons or goods, including motor gasoline, transport diesel, kerosene, natural gas, electricity and fuel oil. Pure biofuels for road transport are not included in this table. Blended biofuels are included in the deliveries of motor gasoline and transport diesel.
A joule is a unit of energy equivalent to 0.24 calories. A Petajoule (PJ) equals 1,000,000,000,000,000 joules (10 to the power of 15) and is equivalent to 31.6 million cubic metres of natural gas or 278 million kilowatt-hours of electricity.- Air transport
- All passenger air and freight air transport.
- Total air transport
- Total deliveries of motor fuels for air transport, namely kerosene type jet fuel, aviation gasoline and gasoline type jet fuel.
- Kerosene type jet fuel
- Fuel for aircraft with an aviation turbine power unit.
Kerosene is a medium heavy oil with a distillation range between 150 and 300 degrees Celsius. Certain specifications make it suitable for use in aviation.
- Aviation gasoline
- Fuel for aircraft with a piston engine. These are often light aircraft with a propeller.
- Gasoline type jet fuel
- Fuel for aircraft with a jet engine.
It is a blend of lighter motor gasoline, heavier kerosene and sometimes naphtha. From 1988 onwards it is no longer delivered to final consumers.
- Motor fuels transport physical units
- Amounts of substances, expressed in million kg or million m3, combusted for the propulsion of vehicles transporting persons or goods, including motor gasoline, transport diesel, kerosene, natural gas, electricity and fuel oil. Pure biofuels for road transport are not included in this table. Blended biofuels are included in the deliveries of motor gasoline and transport diesel.
