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.
This table replaces the next tables:
Crude balance sheet; supply, consumption and stock, 1944 - April 2021
Petroleum products balance; supply, consumption and stock, 1946 - April 2021
Motor fuels; sales in petajoules, weight and volume, 1946 - April 2021
See section 3.
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 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.
Changes as of Oktober 31st 2025:
Figures added for August 2025.
Changes as of September 30th 2025:
Figures added for July 2025.
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.
Description topics
- Supply
- The amount of crudes and petroleum products that has primarily become available for consumption in the Netherlands. Supply is calculated as indigenous production plus other sources plus production plus imports minus exports minus bunkers plus stock changes. This calculation of the supply results in the amount of crudes and petroleum products consumed in the Netherlands in the period concerned.
- Total supply
- Total of the amount of petroleum crudes and petroleum products that have primarily become available for consumption in the Netherlands.
- Indigenous production
- Extraction of energy commodities from nature. Crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGL) are extracted from the bottom on shore or in the Dutch part of the North Sea.
- Other sources
- This item is the calculation of indigenous production plus imports minus exports of bioadditives.
- Production
- Production of petroleum products by transforming crude or other petroleum products, e.g. production of motor gasoline by refining crude oil.
- Total production
- Total production of petroleum products at the refineries, the petrochemical industry and other oil companies.
- Refineries
- Companies that transform crude oil and other feedstocks into useful fossil fuels and other petroleum products. Fuels are LPG, motor gasoline, kerosene and gasoil. Other products are e.g. lubricants and asphalt. The most important step in the refinery is distillation. Crude oil is heated and headed through a column. This process yields several petroleum products such as residual gases at the top of the column and heavy products at the bottom.
- Petrochemical industry
- Companies that transform petroleum products into chemical products. Some other petroleum products become available as a by-product. These come to the market along with petroleum products from refineries. For example the transformation of the chemical product ethylene (a feedstock for plastic) into naphtha and the petroleum product automotive gas delivered to the market for consumption as fuel.
- Other oil companies
- Companies storing or trading petroleum products. In common these companies blend petroleum products just before they are delivered to the market. For example addition more or less additives to motor gasoline or transport diesel to meet summer or winter specifications.
- Imports
- Imports of crudes and petroleum products.
- Total imports
- Inland
- Receipts of crudes and petroleum products from abroad directly to the inland.
- Bonded area
- Receipts of crudes and petroleum products from abroad to the bonded area. Bonded area is a fiscal place for goods for transit trade.
