In 2024, the Netherlands leads European fuel oil refinery output with 334.7 thousand terajoules, followed by Germany at 278.86 and Italy at 235.33. France and Belgium also feature prominently with outputs of 235.22 and 230.51, respectively. Countries like Romania, Serbia, Ukraine, Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Moldova are at the lower end of the spectrum, all producing less than 10 thousand terajoules. Outputs have generally seen decreases from 2023, with notable reductions in the United Kingdom (-18.38%), Ukraine (-32.19%), and the Czech Republic (-22.73%). Conversely, Norway and Ireland experienced slight growth, with Norway’s refinery output growing by 3.83% and Ireland’s by 0.71%.
Future trends to watch for include potential recovery in the countries that have seen significant declines, notably the United Kingdom and Ukraine. Additionally, the overall trend of declining output across many major producers may indicate shifts towards cleaner energy alternatives, regulatory changes, or economic factors affecting production capacities. Monitoring these dynamics will be crucial for understanding Europe’s energy landscape in the coming years.
