Korea is the world's fourth largest oil importing and the world's seventh oil consuming country. Only the United States, Japan and Germany imports more oil than Korea. Only six countries in the world, the US, China, Japan, Germany, Russia, India, consume more oil than Korea. Korea consumes more oil than advanced countries such as Canada, Brazil, France, UK, and Italy. As of Year 2000, Korea spends $38.2 Billion ($50 Billions in Year 2004) in importing foreign energy, which is about 21.3% of its total import expenditure. This amounts to 2.5 times of Korea's total foreign-trade surplus of $15 Billion. The Korea's expenditure for importing energy is greater than the export amount of automobiles and cellular phones combined. Korea's foreign energy reliance is 97%, i.e. nearly all the energy Korea consumes is imported. Thus the economy and national security of Korea greatly depend on foreign energy. |
