Notes:

(1) All figures are rounded to the nearest 1000 tonnes unless otherwise stated. This rounding has created some discrepancies between individual annual field figures and the totals of both UKCS production and of cumulative production for each field.
(2) The current year total production in barrels has been achieved by converting the total reported volume by a standard conversion.
(3) Production from Offshore Extended Well Tests other than those within established fields.
(4) Includes the condensate and residual dissolved gases present in the disposal of stabilised crude by the industry.
(5) Production from Mining Licence Areas.
(6) Production from Onshore Extended Well Tests other than those within established fields.
(7) A mixture of pentane and higher hydrocarbons which arise mainly from the processing of natural gas.
(8) Ethane, propane and butane produced in the treatment of liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons at pipeline terminals including own use.
* Fields where production have ceased.
** Fields where production has been suspended.
