Details

Name in the warehouse: Crude oil imports
Read from: CBSL Monthly Economic Indicators (Central Bank of Sri Lanka)
Source page: https://www.cbsl.gov.lk/en/statistics/economic-indicators/monthly-indicators
Notes: Read from the Energy table of CBSL's Monthly Economic Indicators: each issue gives the latest month(s) and the same month a year earlier; every reading is kept as a vintage dated by the issue's publication, so revisions show. Compiled from the Ceylon Petroleum Corporation, Lanka IOC and the other petroleum importers and retailers, and Sri Lanka Customs. The November 2024 and January 2025 issues print the figures in tonnes under the '000 MT heading; those are converted to thousands of tonnes.
