Méthode et sources
La production de pétrole, de gaz et de charbon et les réserves de charbon proviennent de l’U.S. Energy Information Administration. Les réserves prouvées de pétrole et de gaz sont les chiffres de l’EIA republiés par Our World in Data ; le pétrole est converti de mètres cubes en barils selon le facteur standard. La production mondiale, les réserves et les classements proviennent des Mineral Commodity Summaries de l’U.S. Geological Survey ; ils sont classés parmi les pays cités par l’USGS. La liste complète des produits et des sociétés qui les exploitent provient des tableaux par pays du Minerals Yearbook de l’USGS, publiés avec quelques années de retard. Les rentes, les terres et l’eau proviennent de la Banque mondiale, et les parts des exportations de UN Comtrade. Nous n’estimons rien. Dernière vérification des chiffres le 24 octobre 2026.
