TASK 1 - Line graph - #10 - 10/05/2022

The line graph below shows the oil production and consumption in China between 1982 and 2006.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The line chart illustrates how much oil was produced and consumed in China over the course of 24 years starting from 1982. Units are measured in millions of barrels on a daily basis.

Overall, China witnessed significant growth in the amount of petroleum it manufactured and used over the period. Remarkably, the figure for oil generation dominated that for oil consumption over the initial years of the period, yet the opposite tendency could be seen in the remaining years.

In 1982, around 1.8 million barrels were consumed, 200 fewer than the amount of petroleum produced. Whilst daily oil output rose dramatically to 3 million in 1986 prior to a subsequent stagnation at this point, oil usage underwent a steady rise, with its figure growing to 3.5 million in 1994.

From this time onwards, the amount of petroleum manufactured maintained its upward streak, albeit at a moderate level, and eventually reached a high of approximately 3.8 million in 2006. Meanwhile, the statistics of oil consumed surged with an exponential gradient, making a more than two-fold leap to 6.1 million in the last year alone, almost double that of oil generation.
