We have witnessed instability in consumption of natural gas in world from 2012 to 2018. However compound annual growth rate of 1.59% has been observed in consumption of natural gas in world during the period under consideration.

Consumption of natural gas was 3010.5 million tonnes oil equivalent in world during 2012. It has spiked by 1.46% to 3054.4 million tonnes oil equivalent during 2013 over 2012. We have seen annual decline of -0.15% in consumption of natural gas in world during 2017 from 3073.2 million tonnes oil equivalent during 2016. Consumption of natural gas was 3309.4 million tonnes oil equivalent in world during 2018, up by 5.33% against 3141.9 million tonnes oil equivalent during 2017.

The maximum annual growth of 5.33% has been found in 2018 in consumption of natural gas in world during the period under consideration.
