In 2020, natural gas consumption in the U.S. amounted to around 832 billion cubic meters. This represents an increase of roughly 202 billion cubic meters in comparison with 1998. According to the source, these data represent standard cubic meters (measured at 15°C and 1,013mbar) where possible. Since the figures were derived directly from tons of oil equivalent using an average conversion factor, it does not necessarily equate with gas volumes expressed in specific national terms.
