In 2023, Mexico led global imports of natural gas in a gaseous state with 67.091 trillion kilograms, indicating a 6.05% rise year-on-year. Germany and Italy significantly lagged behind with 0.10581 and 0.042016 trillion kilograms, respectively. Notable growth was seen in Morocco (4.03%), Latvia (2.63%), and South Africa (9.14%). Meanwhile, downturns were observed in the United States (-17.87%), Malaysia (-18.45%), and Japan (-19.88%). The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the last five years was modest for most countries, with declining imports in key regions such as Japan and the United States, while emerging markets showed potential growth.
Future trends to watch include increased imports in emerging markets driven by industrialization and energy demands, and fluctuations in established markets due to shifts towards renewable energy and regulatory changes. The geopolitical landscape, technological advancements, and environmental policies will significantly influence these dynamics.
