Lithuania: crude oil and fuel imports since 2015

Counted as the country reports it in its energy statistics: crude oil by the country where it was produced, refined products by the country they were last shipped from, which may be a trading hub rather than where they were refined.

In 2016, Lithuania imported 9.3 million tonnes of crude oil, most from Russia (85%), Kazakhstan (12%) and Saudi Arabia (3%). Its refined-product imports were 1.6 million tonnes, most from Belarus (36%), Russia (23%) and Finland (21%).

How this figure is made

Counted as the country reports it in its energy statistics: crude oil by the country where it was produced, refined products by the country they were last shipped from, which may be a trading hub rather than where they were refined.

Yearly figures are the sum of the published monthly tonnes over the months with a published figure; shares are each origin’s tonnes over that sum. A month that is not published is left out and listed, never counted as zero, and a month counts as “reported none” only where the zero is confirmed. The part of the published totals the publisher did not attribute to a country is shown as “cannot be traced”. Refined products are seven product families (road diesel, petrol, jet fuel, heating and other gasoil, fuel oil, naphtha, LPG); other products such as bitumen and lubricants are not included.

The chart draws each month’s shares as a 3-month average over the months with figures in each window. A month that is not published is a hatched band labelled “Not published”, and a confirmed zero a plain band labelled “No imports reported”; neither is ever filled in or averaged over.
