The industrial sector consumed 433,959 barrels a day, an increase from 2010 of 4%, affected by the Great Earthquake and Tsunami of Japan early in the year and by the Great Flood in Thailand later in the year. The consumption pattern in this sector this year was similar to that of previous years, with the exception of a jump of 27.3% in the consumption of natural gas and a drop in LPG usage due to the government measure to gradually increase the price of LPG from July 19 this year by 3 baht per kilogram each quarter for four consecutive quarters, resulting in the substitution of LPG by natural gas. 3. Household and commercial energy consumption rose by 5% from 2010 to 207,509 barrels a day. The government continued to ease economic hardship with free buses and free passenger trains, free electricity use for household consuming power less than a given limit per month, and the capping of LPG prices for household cooking at 18.13 baht per kilogram. As a result, LPG consumption surged by 9.1% this year. This year, the overall procurement of petroleum registered 1,791.98 KBD, a drop of 1.06% from last year.
