Taiwan holds
only 0.22 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of proven gas reserves as of 2017, ranking 83rd in the world and accounting for about
0.003% of the world's total natural gas reserves of 6,923 Tcf.
Total gas reserves in Taiwan are less than even a single year of gas consumption (793,139 MMcf as of 2017), making Taiwan highly dependent on natural gas imports in order to substain its consumption levels.
