【新加坡每人一年用掉 93.6 桶油 ⛽】
人均石油消費的排行榜上，新加坡以每人每年 93.6 桶排第一，第二名是加勒比海的庫拉索 84.4 桶。美國只有 22.1 桶，排第十一。
這個排名量的不是生活方式。新加坡 2025 年賣出 5,677 萬噸船用燃油，創歷史新高，換算成桶是三億多桶。這些油加進船艙之後就隨著船離開了，卻全部算在新加坡這六百多萬人頭上。榜上第二名的庫拉索和第五名的馬爾他情況一樣，都是加油港。第九名盧森堡每人 26.5 桶、比美國還高，靠的是便宜柴油把過境卡車吸過來加油。
波灣國家的高用量才是真的在國內燒掉。卡達 40.2 桶、科威特 39.2 桶、阿聯和沙烏地都是 36.7 桶，一個沙烏地人用掉的油比一個美國人多 66%。原因是國內油價便宜、發電和海水淡化靠燒油燒氣、重工業分攤到的人口又少。
所以這張榜單真正在衡量的是地理位置和稅制，不是富裕程度。要判斷哪裡的石油需求會成長，看的是人口和工業結構，不是誰的人均數字漂亮。
統計口徑本身也要留意：它把國際航運燃油、煉廠自用燃料和生質燃料都算了進去，換一套口徑，排名就會重排。

Singapore Uses 93.6 Barrels of Oil Per Person
Singapore tops the per capita oil consumption table at 93.6 barrels a person a year, ahead of Curaçao at 84.4. The United States is eleventh at 22.1.
The ranking is not measuring lifestyle. Singapore sold 56.77 million tonnes of marine bunker fuel in 2025, a record, which works out at a few hundred million barrels. That fuel goes into ships that then sail away, but all of it is counted against the roughly six million people who live there. Curaçao in second place and Malta in fifth are the same story, both refuelling ports. Luxembourg is ninth at 26.5 barrels, higher than the United States, because cheap diesel pulls transiting trucks in to fill up.
The Gulf states are different. Their oil really is burned at home. Qatar uses 40.2 barrels a person, Kuwait 39.2, and the UAE and Saudi Arabia 36.7 each, which means a Saudi uses 66% more oil than an American. Domestic fuel is cheap, power generation and desalination run on oil and gas, and heavy industry is spread across small populations.
So the table measures location and tax policy more than prosperity. To judge where oil demand will grow, population and industrial structure matter, not who sits at the top of a per capita list.
The accounting basis matters too. These figures include international shipping fuel, refinery fuel and biofuels, and a different basis would reorder the table.
