The projected gas production in the UK from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady annual increase: 3.68 (Billion Cubic Feet Per Day, 2024), 3.74 (2025), 3.79 (2026), 3.83 (2027), and 3.87 (2028). The year-on-year variation percentages illustrate this growth trend:
- 2024-2025: (3.74 - 3.68) / 3.68 * 100 ≈ 1.63%
- 2025-2026: (3.79 - 3.74) / 3.74 * 100 ≈ 1.34%
- 2026-2027: (3.83 - 3.79) / 3.79 * 100 ≈ 1.05%
- 2027-2028: (3.87 - 3.83) / 3.83 * 100 ≈ 1.04%
The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is approximately ( ((3.87/3.68)^(1/4) - 1) * 100 ≈ 1.26%). This indicates a gradual but consistent increase in gas production.
Future Trends to Watch
