OSTI ID:6523077

Domestic consumption of energy during July increased 3.1% over July of 1977, and 2.6% over last month's consumption. For the first 7 months of 1978, domestic consumption was up 3.4% from the same period in 1977. Domestic production of energy during July totaled 5.1 quadrillion Btu (or 28.4 million barrels per day of crude oil equivalent). July production decreased by 4.0% from last month's production compared to a 4.6% decrease from June to July of 1977. For the first 7 months of 1978, domestic production of energy was down 0.7% from the same period in 1977. Imports of fossil fuels during July totaled 1.5 quadrillion Btu (or 8.4 million barrels per day of crude oil equivalent). For the first 7 months of 1978, imports of fossil fuels were down 11.9% from the same period in 1977 mainly due to the increase in Alaskan oil production and to the drawdown in primary stocks. During June 1978, consumption of hydroelectric, nuclear electric, and geothermal power increased 20.5% over June 1977. In July 1978, world crude oil production averaged 59.5 million barrels per day, 49.3% of which was produced by OPEC nations.
