About Dataset

Indian Petroleum and Natural Gas Statistics 1995–96 presents a comprehensive statistical overview of India’s petroleum and natural gas sector, combining current-year information with extensive historical time-series data. The Natural Gas section covers state-wise reserves, gross and net production, production on calendar- and financial-year bases, utilisation and industry-wise offtakes. The Refining section provides statistics on petroleum refining capacity, refinery crude throughput, petroleum-product production, refinery-wise crude runs, domestic production trends and refinery production patterns. Consumption and Sales statistics cover total petroleum-product consumption from the post-independence period, long-term consumption trends, product-wise sales and consumption, seasonal indices, oil-company market shares, international and coastal bunkers, state-wise consumption, per-capita consumption and estimated sector-wise end-use consumption. Additional tables cover diesel consumption by Indian Railways, naphtha and FO/LSHS offtakes, fuel consumption and power generation in gas turbine and diesel stations, and fossil-fuel consumption for thermal electricity generation. Foreign Trade statistics document imports and exports of crude oil and petroleum products across calendar and financial years, product-wise trade, India’s overall and OPEC trade balances, foreign exchange reserves and POL imports relative to national exports. The publication also includes petroleum-industry employment, category-wise manpower, petroleum prices, price build-up, dealer commissions, excise and customs duties, sales taxes, royalty and oil development cess. Transportation, pipelines, marketing networks and energy statistics provide additional coverage of petroleum infrastructure and sectoral energy trends.

Purpose of Dataset

The purpose of this publication is to provide a consolidated statistical reference for India’s petroleum and natural gas sector, documenting production, refining, consumption, trade, employment, prices, taxation, transportation, marketing and energy-related developments. It combines historical time-series data with state-wise, company-wise, industry-wise and sector-wise statistics to facilitate analysis of petroleum-sector trends and performance. Natural gas statistics cover reserves, production, utilisation and offtakes, while refining and consumption tables document petroleum-product supply and demand. Foreign-trade statistics provide information on imports, exports, trade balances and foreign exchange reserves. The publication supports policymakers, government agencies, petroleum companies, researchers, planners and analysts in sectoral assessment and decision-making.
