Per capita daily oil consumption figures are calculated by combining U.S. Energy Information Administration energy data with World Bank population statistics. World Bank staff generated this dataset for the Country Climate and Development Report. The temporal and geographic coverage is not specified in the provided input.
Use Cases
- Analyze trends in per capita oil consumption over time for cross-country comparisons.
- Model the relationship between population growth (World Bank data) and national oil demand (EIA data).
- Benchmark a country's energy intensity using the derived barrels-per-capita-per-day metric.
- Correlate per capita oil consumption with other World Development Indicators for socioeconomic studies.
Strengths
- Data is derived from two authoritative sources: U.S. EIA for energy and World Bank for population.
- Provides a calculated per capita metric (barrels per capita per day) not directly available from raw sources.
Limitations
- All original metadata (row count, time range, country list) is unknown.
- The derivation method may obscure uncertainties or mismatches in the source data alignment.
Provenance
- Source
- U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) and World Bank Group - World Development Indicators.
- Collection Method
- Calculated by World Bank staff by applying World Bank population data to EIA energy consumption data.
