In comparison: my recollection is that about 1% of natural gas in the U.S. is lost during extraction and transmission (it's been a couple of years since I researched this). Interestingly, around 5% of our natural gas infrastructure accounts for 80 or 90% of the lost gas: a handful of very leaky wells and compressor stations, plus some regions of the country with legacy cast iron transmission pipelines.
