The latest Government Energy Trends report, out yesterday, shows that inland consumption of oil, on a primary fuel import basis, was 22m tonnes in the three months to the end of march, aimost 1 per cent. Tower than the corresponding period of 1976.
All the other major fuel suppliers - with the exception of hydro-electricity - registred in creased demand.
The Department of Energy reported that the output of refined oil produets was 1.6 per cent higer than last year, thanks to the call for export fuel oil. Production of fuel oil rose by 10.1 per cent were down 4.2 per cent.
Total inland energy consumption in January-March was 2.2 per cent up on the same period of 1976.

However, Energy Trends shows that total gas sent out during the three-month period February-April was 4.6bn therms, slightly tower than in the same quarter of 1976.
