Precision
The headline is stored to 18 decimals, as published.
Rounded by this site
Never. Tables on screen may show fewer decimals; the files never do.
Changed by this site
Reshaped into one row per country: regional and income-group totals are left out, only the columns listed are kept, each row gets its ISO 3166 code, and some country names are brought to one spelling. No value is recalculated, rescaled or rounded.
From the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s International Energy Statistics, read from its public bulk download and stored as EIA publishes it. The newest year is EIA’s first estimate and is revised later.
