Exports record a historic high of $36 billion: Australia
The April 2021 merchandise goods trade surplus, at $10.1 billion, is the third highest on record, according to preliminary trade data released today by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
ABS Head of International Statistics, Andrew Tomadini said “Exports remained steady, increasing $12.6 million in April, but imports fell $1.9 billion, adding to the already strong surplus recorded in March 2021.
Increases in the exports of coal, petroleum, metalliferous ores and medicinal and pharmaceutical products were offset by declines in non-monetary gold and oil seeds. However, the continued strength of metalliferous ores has contributed to total exports for April 2021 reaching a record high $36 billion.

Oil, natural gas, and freedom rankings
This Fact Sheet examines worldwide oil and natural gas production and market share over four decades for countries in three categories: nations (or territories) that are Free, Partly Free, or Not Free. The freedom rankings are from Freedom House, a Washington D.C.-based think tank which has measured and ranked countries and territories by their degree of freedom since 1973.¹ The data on oil and natural gas production are from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), a U.S. government agency.

The ISEG Postgraduate Training Fellowship in Medical Statistics for African Scientists launched in 2005 and forms a key part of ISEG’s investment in capacity strengthening. The Scheme enables promising research students from Sub-Saharan Africa to undertake MSc training in Medical Statistics at LSHTM followed by a year working as a statistician at one of our partner centres in Africa. The fellow continues to receive mentoring, supervision and support for the duration of their fellowship from members of our Group.
The summer project, chosen by the fellow, often provides an introduction to the research topic to be pursued further during the placement year. During the placement year, the fellow is exposed to different aspects of research including study design, data management, analysis and reporting of findings. They are guided by local statisticians and researchers as well as relevant ISEG members.
