Historical Petroleum and Gas Production and Reserve Statistics for Queensland

Production and reserves statistics for coal seam gas, condensate, crude oil, liquefied petroleum gas, and natural gas. The dataset contains historical data, with production figures dated before 30 June 2016 and reserves data dated before 2020. It is published by the Queensland Department of Natural Resources and Mines, Manufacturing and Regional and Rural Development under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyze historical production trends for crude oil and natural gas based on the described statistics.
• Model reserve depletion rates for coal seam gas based on the pre-2020 reserves data.
• Compare production volumes across different fuel types (condensate, LPG) mentioned in the description.
• Benchmark historical energy output for economic or policy studies based on the described time ranges.

Strengths

• Data covers multiple fuel types: coal seam gas, condensate, crude oil, liquefied petroleum gas, and natural gas.
• Provides a historical time series with production data preceding June 2016 and reserves data preceding 2020.
• Published by a government department (Natural Resources and Mines, Manufacturing and Regional and Rural Development) under an open CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified as the core data is historical and the last metadata update was 2026-07-08.
