The availability of natural gas in Italy in 2011 was 77.41 billion cubic metres, down by 5.26 billion cubic metres (-6.4%) compared to 2010.

The quantities of gas injected into the National Transportation Network was down by 6.0% to 78.30 billion cubic metres (83.31 billion cubic metres in 2010), through the effect of the lower imports (-4.90 billion cubic metres; -6.5%), as well as the reduction of national production (-0.11 billion cubic metres; -1.4%).

Imports (70.27 billion cubic metres) recorded a reduction of 6.5% from 2010. Specifically, the lower volumes injected from the Gela entry point (-7.07 billion cubic metres; -75.1%), following the effects of the Libyan crisis, and Mazara del Vallo (-4.74 billion cubic metres; -18.0%), set against an increase in imports from the entry point of Tarvisio (+3.96 billion cubic metres; +17.6%) and Gries Pass (+3.03 billion cubic metres; +38.7%) penalised in 2010 by the break, in Switzerland, in the import line which connects Italy with Northern Europe.
