Global natural gas demand hits record in 2025
Global demand for natural gas rose in 2025 to a record 4.202 trillion cubic meters, an increase of 1.7% over the previous year, driven notably by higher consumption in the residential, heating, and electricity generation sectors. This growth in demand led to a rise in global supply to 4.147 trillion cubic meters, with North America emerging as the largest exporter of gas, surpassing Russia and covering more than half of Europe's liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports. In 2026, a first-ever annual decline in demand of 7 billion cubic meters is expected, despite continued production growth aimed at offsetting the anticipated decline in imports from the Middle East. The report emphasizes the importance of investing in infrastructure to ensure reliable supplies and support energy security.
