Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Algeria
- Australia
How they compare
Australia currently reports 43.21 Mt CO2e against 37.18 Mt CO2e in Algeria, a difference of 6.03 Mt CO2e.
That makes Australia's figure about 1.2 times Algeria's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Algeria ahead.
Algeria ranks 16th and Australia ranks 13th of 193 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Algeria averaged higher in 4 and Australia in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Algeria | Australia | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 39.51 Mt CO2e | 22.08 Mt CO2e | 17.43 Mt CO2e | Algeria |
| 1980s | 41.94 Mt CO2e | 28.09 Mt CO2e | 13.84 Mt CO2e | Algeria |
| 1990s | 50.51 Mt CO2e | 33.53 Mt CO2e | 16.98 Mt CO2e | Algeria |
| 2000s | 42.69 Mt CO2e | 39.9 Mt CO2e | 2.79 Mt CO2e | Algeria |
| 2010s | 40 Mt CO2e | 46.35 Mt CO2e | 6.35 Mt CO2e | Australia |
| 2020s | 37.74 Mt CO2e | 44.74 Mt CO2e | 7 Mt CO2e | Australia |
Averages of every year both report within each decade.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
