ESTIMATED DATA
Due to the absence of official data, the following data have been estimated:
Portugal
May 2011
COUNTRY NOTES
Australia
Prior to July 2006, all natural gas exports are estimated by the IEA on the basis of OECD imports of
natural gas from Australia. Post July 2006, total exports of natural gas are estimated by the
administration, based on annual (July to June) and quarterly data. The breakdown of export destinations
is estimated by the IEA on the basis of OECD imports of natural gas from Australia.
Belgium
For the period January 2010 to February 2011, the gross inland deliveries and the imports from "Not
elsewhere specified" location are estimated by IEA secretariat. The revisions are pending.
Czech Republic
Due to changes in reporting methodology there is a break in series in natural gas stocks for the Czech
Republic beginning with January 2010 data. From January 2010 onwards, natural gas stocks represent
the stocks held on the national territory of the Czech Republic. Prior January 2010, natural gas stock
data included also stocks held in the Slovak Republic that were fully available for use by the Czech
Republic. Historical revisions are pending.
France
Beginning with January 2005 data, exports of natural gas include a portion of gas in transit.
Germany
Iceland
There is no natural gas data for Iceland, as there is neither production nor consumption.
OECD/IEA, 2011
Italy
Cushion gas is excluded from stock levels starting with October 2009, hence there is a break in stocks
between September and October 2009. Historical revisions are pending.
Netherlands
Between January 2005 and July 2009, natural gas trade information is published by country of physical
location prior to or after crossing Dutch borders. Revisions are pending. Beginning with August 2009
data, natural gas trade data are reported on the basis of ultimate origin and destination.
New Zealand
Beginning with May 2011, natural gas stock levels include Ahuora gas storage facility and the Maui
pipeline, resulting in a break in stocks between April 2011 and May 2011 data. Revisions to historical
data are pending.
Portugal
For May 2011, natural gas data has been estimated on the basis of data on gas flows at entry and exit
border points.
Turkey
Beginning with January 2008, stock levels have been revised to include the data of new companies
operating in the market.
