More precise, refined petroleum products are mainly, about 80%, motor fuels (gasoline, diesel, LPG, kerosene, naphtha, etc), but also non-fuels (lubrication oil, asphalt, etc.).
The table lists the top .. consuming countries, which use .. 90% of the consumption of all more than 190 countries. The amounts of Gas and Petrol are given in 109 cubic meter per year and 106 barrel per day.[1][2] Total consumption is given in the common unit TWh/a (Terawatt-hours per year, 1 TWh = 109 kWh). The data are of 2012-2013. The last column contains the number of millions of inhabitants.
Total equals 10.6 x gas + 520 x petrol. The conversion factors 10.6 and 520 are based on 38 MWh/m3 gas and 1.4 MWh/bbl petrol. These are average values; the caloric value of natural gas and petrol differ per country and the mix of petroleum products.
