About This Dataset
The dataset records yearly oil production levels for countries and regions worldwide. Each row represents a specific country or entity in a particular year and includes the standardized country code and the amount of oil produced expressed in terawatt-hours (TWh). The dataset allows users to analyze historical oil production trends across countries and over time.
Data Quality
The dataset is structurally consistent with clearly defined columns and numeric measurements. Most fields are complete, although the country code column contains missing values for some regional or aggregated entities.
Use Cases
Energy production trend analysis, global oil production comparison, energy policy research, economic and energy modeling, historical energy supply analysis.
Limitations
Some entities do not contain standardized country codes, which may represent regions, historical states, or aggregated geographic areas. The dataset also focuses solely on oil production and does not include other energy sources or economic context.
Methodology
The data was likely compiled from international energy statistical sources and converted into terawatt-hour units for standardized comparison across countries and years.
