Energy Export Updated To BP 2013 Data -- The Oil Drum -- Great Britain: Energy Poverty

Link here.

North America
North American oil production (including natural gas liquids) is up while consumption is steady, leading to reduced imports from overseas. Individual components include
  • Increased production of Canadian tar sands.
  • Increased production of US tight oil and gas.
  • Minimal declines in Mexican oil fields.
  • Reduced consumption in the US.
Great Britain
Excluding alternative fuels, the United Kingdom now produces only 40% of the energy it did in 2000. This is energy poverty on a national scale!
Brazil
Despite the hoopla a few years ago about Brazil’s offshore, sub-salt discoveries, Brazil looks unlikely to become an oil exporter any time soon. (See my comments June 19, 2013.)
