Figures for this statistic were calculated by ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ using data provided by the source.
Figures are based on fugitive and exhaust emissions from flaring, venting combustion, and non-combustion related processes during oil and gas exploration, production, processing, and transport of crude oil, gas, and liquefied natural gas.Â
Oil and gas field- and basin-level carbon dioxide and methane emissions are estimated with the Oil Production Greenhouse Gas Emissions Estimator (OPGEE) Model. Inputs include a number of oil and gas field characteristics, including satellite-derived flaring volumes. Field-level estimates are summed and scaled to country-level on an annual basis.
Figures account for greenhouse gas emissions based on their 100-year global warming potential (GWP).
The source did not provide a release date. The date given is the date of website access.

Global GHG emissions from oil and gas production and transport 2015-2023, by country
Russia released an estimated **** billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO₂e) from oil and gas production and transprotation in 2023, making it the biggest carbon polluter in this sector. The six countries shown accounted for ** percent of global emissions from oil and gas production and transport in 2023.
