Wood Mackenzie integrates Vietnam’s supply and demand data under the ‘Other Asia’ grouping in its reports and database. This reporting approach reflects both Vietnam’s market characteristics and the efficiency of regional grouping.

Why Vietnam is included in ‘Other Asia’

  • Low trading volume: Vietnam’s trading activity in the energy market is relatively limited, making it less practical to publish a dedicated dataset.

  • Regional grouping efficiency: Smaller markets like Vietnam are combined with others in the region to provide a cohesive view of emerging trends.

What ‘Other Asia’ includes

The ‘Other Asia’ category aggregates Vietnam along with several smaller Asian markets. This allows for consistent and manageable reporting while still capturing developments in these markets collectively.

Implications for users

  • Vietnam’s supply and demand data is available as part of ‘Other Asia’, not as a standalone country view.

  • Users should interpret Vietnam’s trends within the broader regional context.

This structure ensures efficiency in reporting while still offering visibility into Vietnam’s market dynamics as part of Asia’s smaller economies.
