Bolivian proved reserves of natural gas
editThe three best sources for proved gas reserves are OPEC, BP, and the US Energy Information Administration. The latest estimates of proved reserves in Bolivia are (using 35.31 ft3 = 1 m3):
BP: 317 billion m3, 11.2 trillion ft3, end of 2013
OPEC: 281 billion m3, 9.92 trillion ft3, end of 2013
US EIA: 282 billion m3, 9.94 trillion ft3, start of 2014

According to all three sources above, Bolivian proved gas reserves were much higher in the past:
BP: 813 billion m3, end of 2002
OPEC: 813 billion m3, end of 2002
US EIA: 750 billion m3, start of 2010

- As to the world ranking, if we use the BP number of 317 billion cubic meters, Bolivia would rank 38th. Regards, Plazak (talk) 13:28, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
