Country Analysis Brief
  • Singapore is a major refining center for Southeast Asia, with refining capacity of nearly double its rate of petroleum products consumption. It also is located strategically near the Strait of Malacca, a major route for oil tankers.
  • Although Singapore does not produce any oil domestically, it is an important oil trading and refining hub.
  • Natural gas consumption has ballooned in recent years in Singapore, owing mostly to government programs that encourage the use of natural gas for electricity generation.
  • Singapore generates the majority of its electric power from natural gas-fired plants.
  • Singapore is taking steps to reduce its carbon intensity and improve the country’s energy efficiency.
