Between 2013 and 2023, Poland's natural gas production experienced a consistent, albeit gradual, decline from 3.82 to 3.31 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe). The year-on-year variation in production showed minor fluctuations, with a notable decrease of 3.54% in 2016 and a more stabilised trend in recent years, culminating in a 0.67% drop in 2023. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) stood at -1.23%, reflecting a steady reduction in production.
Looking ahead, forecasted data indicate that Poland's natural gas production will continue to slightly decrease, reaching 3.20 Mtoe by 2028. The forecasted 5-year CAGR is projected at -0.53%, with an overall 5-year growth rate decline of 2.64%.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in energy policy, investments in alternative energy sources, and technological advancements in natural gas extraction and efficiency, which could influence the country's production trajectory.
