The line graph compared the volumn of oil manufactured and consumed in China over a 24-year-period, starting from 1982. All figures are shown in millions of oil barrels per day.
It can be seen that overall trend was upward. While the oil consumption experienced a significant increase to end the period with the top spot, the oil production demonstrated a slight growth.
Turning to the detail, from 1982 to 1994, the number of oil manufactured was higher than that of oil consumed. The oil production stood at the first place at 2 million in the initial year, and then soared remarkably to nearly equal 3 million in 1986 before remaining almost stable. Beside that, there was a slight upturn in the figure for oil consumed from 1982 to 1990 around 2 million, shooting up suddenly to be equal to that of oil manufactured in 1994
From 1994 to 2006, upward patterns was still seen. Firstly, the oil consumption leaped continually to overcome the oil manufacturing, finishing at first placein 2006. Secondly, quantity of oil producted witnessed a gradual to peak at 3. 5 million in the final year.
