Live statistics showing amount of natural gas left in the world based on proven gas reserves and current global consumption levels. World Natural Gas reserves, production and consumption by year and by country, imports, exports, charts and list.
Total proved reserves of natural gas is generally taken to be those quantities that geological and engineering information indicates with reasonable certainty can be recovered in the future from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.
This is a list of countries by natural gas production based on statistics from The U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA).

World natural gas statistics. This file contains time series from 1960 to 2023 for the World, 152 countries and additional regional aggregates on production, imports, exports, and gross inland consumption of natural gas. 2023 data are provisional and are estimated for non-OECD countries.
World proved gas reserves decreased by 2.2 Tcm to 188.1 Tcm in 2020. A revision to Algeria (-2.1 Tcm) provided the largest decrease, partially offset by a 0.4 Tcm increase in Canadian reserves.
Global gas production slightly increased in 2023 (+0.7%), after a stagnation in 2022 (-0.1%). Indeed, the steady growth in gas production in the US (+4.7%, almost as fast as its 2010-2019 average) was offset by a 5.5% drop in Russia due to lower exports to the European Union.
