Libya vs Vietnam: Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Libya
- Vietnam
How they compare
Vietnam currently reports 23.41 Mt CO2e against 22.1 Mt CO2e in Libya, a difference of 1.31 Mt CO2e.
That makes Vietnam's figure about 1.1 times Libya's.
The two have swapped places 3 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Libya ahead.
Libya ranks 23rd and Vietnam ranks 21st of 192 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Libya averaged higher in 4 and Vietnam in 2.
Head to head by decade
| Decade | Libya | Vietnam | Difference | Ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1970s | 73.87 Mt CO2e | 2.64 Mt CO2e | 71.23 Mt CO2e | Libya |
| 1980s | 42.2 Mt CO2e | 3.64 Mt CO2e | 38.57 Mt CO2e | Libya |
| 1990s | 42.77 Mt CO2e | 8.69 Mt CO2e | 34.08 Mt CO2e | Libya |
| 2000s | 35.63 Mt CO2e | 17.95 Mt CO2e | 17.68 Mt CO2e | Libya |
| 2010s | 18.22 Mt CO2e | 23.28 Mt CO2e | 5.07 Mt CO2e | Vietnam |
| 2020s | 19.51 Mt CO2e | 24.56 Mt CO2e | 5.04 Mt CO2e | Vietnam |
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).
