Truck-out volume of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG, cooking gas) by geopolitical zone, 2019, in litres. Source: NBS Annual Abstract of Statistics 2023, Table 241; data provider Department of Petroleum Resources. Truck-out volume is product loaded out of depots into road tankers — a downstream DISTRIBUTION measure, not production and not consumption. ⚠ SINGLE PERIOD: 2019 only. This is a cross-section across the six zones, not a time series — no trend can be drawn from it. South South (235,193,804 l) and South West (159,325,748 l) together are 53.8% of the national figure; North East is 2.7%. The printed national TOTAL of 734,209,337 litres equals the sum of the six zones exactly. It is not served: as a national aggregate on the same axis as its own components it would double-count, and as a single point it is not a series of its own either. It is quarantined in staging with that reason and recorded here instead. ⚠ Table 241 reports LPG in LITRES while Table 242 reports LPG imports in METRIC TONNES. The two are not comparable without a density assumption, which Prism does not make.
