Vietnam produced 576.06 million m3 of natural gas in April, up 4.51 percent from 551.23 million m3 in March 2026, according to the latest data from the National Statistics Office.
Year-to-date output reached 2,034.82 million m 3 by the end of April.
Vietnam’s natural gas industry
Vietnam’s gas industry is centred on offshore fields supplying domestic power generation and fertiliser production, with Vietnam Oil and Gas Group (Petrovietnam) as the dominant operator.
Output is concentrated in southern basins such as Cuu Long and Nam Con Son, with gas transported via pipeline to major power and industrial hubs.
Domestic supply is under pressure from declining reserves, prompting plans to expand liquefied natural gas imports and develop new gas-to-power projects.
The sector is shaped by rising demand, infrastructure constraints, and policy priorities around energy security, diversification, and transitioning to lower-carbon fuels.
