Vietnam’s crude oil industry
Vietnam’s crude oil industry is a long-established pillar of the country’s energy sector.
State-owned PetroVietnam plays a central role, working with international partners to maintain output while managing declining mature fields and rising extraction costs.
Crude oil production contributes to export earnings and fiscal revenue, but volumes have gradually declined as reserves mature and new discoveries are limited.
As a result, Vietnam is increasingly focused on enhanced recovery, selective new exploration, and balancing crude output with growing downstream refining and petrochemical capacity.
