Different estimates may or may not include oil shale, mined oil sands or natural gas liquids. Because proven reserves include oil recoverable under current economic conditions, nations may see large increases in proven reserves when known, but previously uneconomic deposits become economic to develop.
Trends in the five countries with largest proven reserves of natural gas, according to the US Energy Information Administration Countries by natural gas proven reserves (2014), based on data from CIA The World Factbook Countries by natural gas and oil proven reserves (2015) World natural gas proven reserves 1960–2012 (OPEC)
Proven reserves (also called measured reserves, 1P, and reserves) is a measure of fossil fuel energy reserves, such as oil and gas reserves and coal reserves. It is defined as the "quantity of energy sources estimated with reasonable certainty, from the analysis of geologic and engineering data, to be recoverable from well established or known ...
Consuming less or importing more oil prolongs the useful life of existing oil reserves. Between 1970 and 2007, due to declining production and increasing demand, net US imports of oil and petroleum products increased from 3.16 million barrels per day (502 × 10 ^ 3 m 3 /d) in 1970 to 12.04 million barrels per day (1.914 × 10 ^ 6 m 3 /d) in ...

Iraq raised its level of proven oil reserves by 24% in the first revision since Saddam Hussein was toppled from power. The country has 143.1 billion barrels of known and extractible oil, compared ...
Natural gas is frequently associated with oil directly and gas reserves are commonly quoted in barrels of oil equivalent (BOE). Consequently, both oil and gas reserves, as well as resource estimates, follow the same reporting guidelines, and are referred to collectively hereinafter as oil & gas. [1]
