Singapore is the smallest country in ASEAN with a total area of 728.6 km2. However, it is densely populated by more than 5.45 million people as of 2021. In a decade, the total population grew by 3.4% from the previous year, mainly due to the increase in the non-resident population [1]. Nonetheless, Singapore still ranks as the highest Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita among other ASEAN member states with 72,399.7 USD as of 2021.

Oil and gas have been dominant in TPES. Furthermore, being one of the world’s largest bunker ports and together with the total exports, Singapore always has a net negative consumption of oil products in TPES.

Oil products are the main consumer in TFEC, possibly due to the transportation and the international bankers. Singapore’s Coal Consumption was reported at 0.913 TOE million in Dec 2018 [1].
