Vietnam’s natural gas extraction volume reached 535 million cubic metres in April 2025, according to estimates from the National Statistics Office.
This marks a year-on-year drop of 13.1 percent, following a preliminary March output of 544.9 million m³, and continues a broader trend of subdued performance in the domestic gas sector.
Cumulatively, Vietnam extracted 1.98 billion m³ of gas in the first four months of 2025, down 14 percent year-on-year, highlighting deepening structural challenges for the industry.
This is the second consecutive month in which output has contracted below 90 percent of the prior year’s levels, with April production standing at 86.9 percent of April 2024 volumes, and cumulative output for the year at 86.0 percent of the same four-month period last year.
