Import and export
Exports and Imports• Oil– The fifth largest oil exporter in the world.– Exports over 2 million barrels per day.
• Gas– The third largest exporter.– Over 100 billion scm exported annually.
• Hydro– Approximately 17 TWh.
• Imports are insignificant compared to exports
Because of environmental conflicts it is hard to achieve acceptance for large scale hydropower.
Focus on improved use of already developed rivers.
Old plants may be replaced by more efficient plants.
The government has presented a strategy for development of Small hydro.◦ Important for energy supply.◦ Important for local development.◦ Secure income for farmers to maintain settlement
patterns in rural areas. International focus on renewable energy.
Present situation of Hydro
Hydro◦ Approximately 96% of all power production is
hydropower.◦ Annual production: 124 TWh, annual variation +-
20%◦ Installed capacity: 29.600 MW, 1250 power plants. ◦ Reservoir capacity: 83,4 TWh
Wind◦ 10 TWh licensed by the government.◦ 1,8 TWh developed or under construction.◦ 4,1 TWh appealed to the officials.◦ 4,1 TWh has a final license – ready for
development.
Resources and Usage
Oil◦ The total oil resources are between 10,6 and 16,9 billion
scm.◦ 7,1 billion scm has already been produced.◦ Over 2 million barrels per day produced
Russia 10,1 and Saudi-Arabia 9,8 Gas
◦ Over 4.000 billion scm of recoverable gas reserves◦ 2.000 billion scm to be discovered.◦ 30% of all gas production in Western Europe.◦ The fifth largest producer in the world, but has only 1.6% of
the world’s proven gas reserves. Others
◦ Solar, osmotic etc.
