Japan
One field and 46 companies in Japan can be followed in OESA, with data from GEM and GLEIF – LEI register (Level 1 and 2). The figures are in the source's unit with period and source.
The data
What the source has for the country. What is not listed here is not in the data and is not filled in.
- Level
- Coarse data. International sources and curation with a source instead of the country's own authority. The figures are often annual, and the shares may be missing for some fields.
- Ownership
- per field, with shares
- Production
- per field and year, not all fields in the country

Notes
What the sources and OESA say about the data for the country, including what is not used.
- The data are from GEM (Global Energy Monitor). Every figure has its source and year, and figures from different years are not mixed.
Fields
The fields in Japan with something to show. Fields with their own page are linked; the others can be followed on the globe.

| Name | Status | Operator | Production million Sm³ o.e., 2023, converted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minami-Nagaoka Gas Field | Producing | INPEX | 0.66 estimate |
Estimate: Converted from the source's figures (2023). Oil equivalent by the Norwegian Offshore Directorate's rule: oil, condensate and NGL in Sm³ count equally, 1,000 Sm³ of gas = 1 Sm³ o.e. and 1 tonne of NGL = 1.9 Sm³ o.e. Estimate: the source gives m³ without reference conditions, and the figure is treated as Sm³. The error can be up to about 5%. GEM itself converted the figure and unit GEM states to an annual volume for 2023. OESA has not converted it.
