Band 6+: The graph below shows the production levels of the main kinds of fuel in the UK between 1981 and 2000. Summerize the information by selecting and reporting the main featurese and make comparisons where relevant.

The line graph illustrates how much the three most important fuels – petroleum, natural gas, coal produced in the UK over the period from 1981 to 2000.

Overall, Petroleum initially dominated production in the UK all the period, but experienced a significant decline by 1990. In contrast, Natural gas demonstrated a consistent upward trajectory throughout this period , while Coal’s production remained relatively stable before 1986 but then saw a notable decline.

In 1984, Petroleum produced 140 energy units making it the leading producer among the three fuels. However, this figure marked a dramatic decline of 40 energy units .But Petroleum remained the dominant fuel throughout the period. Meanwhile, Natural gas’s production exhibited a steady increase, rising from a mere 40 energy units in 1981 to a peak of 100 energy units by 2000.

Between 1983 and 1986, Coal’s production shows dramatic decline by approximately 39 energy units, yet it staged a remarkable recovery in 1986, with output soaring to nearly 60 energy units. However, Coal’s level of production steadly decline by 2000.
