Data Correction in the 2016 Edition

To improve data quality, the Bureau of Energy reviewed the scopes, methodology
and rationality of energy statistics system, and made amendments on the data about
coal, import and export of petroleum products, lubricants, recycled fuel oil, LNG and
biogas.
1. Coal:
(1) Revise the transformation input data of bituminous coal-steam coal in coke
oven and blast furnace from 2011 through 2016 with data collected from
iron and steel industry.
(2) Add coal import and consumption data collected from 68 new coal users,
and revise the industry classification of 11 existing coal users.
(3) The Power Plants have separately declared the inputs and stocks of bitumi-
nous coal-steam coal and sub-bituminous coal since June, 2016, the related
data was revised from estimated value to reported value.
(4) Coke consumption in the chemical manufacturing industry was used as raw
material, thus it was reclassified as non-energy consumption.
2. Import and Export of Petroleum Products: revise the import and export data
of petroleum products from year 2005 to 2016 according to the 2014 edition
of “Import and Export Commodity Classification of the Republic of China.”
3. Lubricants: add in the production and sales data of base oil since 2009.
4. Recycled Fuel Oil:
(1) Record the recycled petroleum products used for producing recycled fuel oil
in the “Refinery Feedstocks” column since July 2002.
(2) Record the transformation output and sales data of recycled fuel oil in the
“Fuel Oil” column, and remove it from the “Liquid Biofuels” column, since
it is produced with recycled petroleum products.
5. LNG: record the amount of LNG gasification in the row of “transfers (input /
output)” instead of “transformation input / output,” since its chemical
property does not change after the gasification.
6. Biogas: expand the scope of renewable energy data collection to include the
biogas production from agriculture sector, as well as its electricity
generation.
