Table explanation


This table shows the supply and consumption of petroleum products and crudes as a balance sheet.

Petroleum products include the fuels LPG, motor gasoline and diesel oil. The balance includes products used for processing or consumption in the Netherlands as well as those intended for transit.

Crudes are crude oil, natural gas liquids and additives (intermediates for motor gasoline and transport diesel). Separate balance sheet items are available for feedstocks for processing in the Netherlands and for feedstocks for the transit trade. The difference between the two flows is that import tax is paid for products destined for production in the Netherlands, while it is not paid for transit goods.

The following standard densities are used to convert from kg to liters of Gasoline, Diesel and Autogas delivered including excise duty:
Petrol 0.75 kg/l, Diesel 0.836 kg/l and LPG 0.535 kg/l.

Data available:
From January 2015

Status of the figures:
- up to and including 2023 definite.
- 2024 is revised provisional.
- 2025 are provisional.

Changes as of February 24th 2026:
Figures added for December 2025.

Changes as of January 30th 2026:
Figures added for November 2025.

Changes as of December 24th 2025:
Figures added for October 2025.

Changes as of November 26th 2025:
Figures added for September 2025.

Changes as of November 18th 2025:
Figures for 2025 have been updated. Figures from 2015 up to and including 2024 have been revised. The revision primarily concerns improved data on gas/diesel oil consumption by mobile equipment in the construction and services sectors. These changes amount to a few PJ. This revision has also affected road transport diesel consumption, which from that year onwards is determined as total taxable supply of gas/diesel oil minus supply of taxable gas/diesel oil to other sectors. Similar adjustments have been made for gasoline.

When will new figures be published?
Provisional figures: in the second month after the month under review.
Definite figures: not later than in the second following December.
