    Description

    Global oil production amounted to ************ barrels per day in 2023. The level of oil production reached an all-time high in 2023. However, the coronavirus pandemic and its impact on transportation fuel demand led to a notable decline in 2020. Rising production and consumption Apart from events surrounding global economic crisis as in the late 2000's and 2020, oil production consistently increased every year for the past two decades. Similarly, global oil consumption only decreased in 2008, 2009, and 2020, but has otherwise increased to a higher level year after year. Oil and oil products remain invaluable commodities as most transportation fuels are petroleum-based and oil is a major raw material for the chemicals industry. Production by region and country While total production is rising, regional distribution has shifted, with the share of production declining the most in Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) since 2008, and rising the most in North America. Even though as a region the Middle East still produces the largest share of oil worldwide, the United States is currently the worl'ds largest producer of oil, followed by Saudi Arabia and Russia.

    Description

    In 2023, global crude oil production amounted to approximately *********** metric tons. This was the largest amount that had ever been produced and nearly *********** metric tons more than oil produced in 1998. Which countries extract the most oil? The United States is the largest oil producing country in the world. Profiting off advances in horizontal drilling and shale extraction, the U.S. has succeeded OPEC-affiliated countries, such as Saudi Arabia, in becoming the world's greatest supplier of crude oil. Oil production in the United States The U.S. has been producing oil since the 1850s. U.S. oil production initially decreased until 2008, but has been steadily increasing since. Texas is by far the U.S. state that produces the most crude oil. It is home to the Permian Basin and Eagle Ford shale play, two of the most important petroleum-rich locations in the country. The U.S. also operates numerous rigs located offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, which contribute significantly to overall oil and gas production.

    Description

    The Middle East produces more oil than any other region in the world, accounting for slightly less than ******* of global oil production in 2023, at **** percent. Overall, the Middle Eastern oil production makes up a slightly larger share of global production than it did ten years ago, but the contribution to worldwide oil production has risen most consistently in North America, while declining in all other regions. Shifts in North American oil production Over the past decade, higher oil production in North America has largely been driven by the United States. In the last ten years, oil production in the United States has more than doubled, with its annual output only mildly affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Meanwhile, Canada's crude oil production has also increased in the period, although in a less consistent manner. The U.S. moves towards less dependency Oil prices from OPEC countries, many of which are in the Middle East, had been rising in the years leading up to the global recession, reaching a peak in 2012. As a result, the United States decreased oil imports, and investors capitalized on lower interest rates to develop technologies such as hydraulic fracturing (fracking) that would allow domestic oil extraction from wells deep underground that were once too hard to reach. In 2019, before oil demand was affected by the pandemic, the North American country's imports dipped below *** million barrels, a ** percent drop in comparison to a decade earlier.

Amongst the various crude oil producing countries in the world, the United States came in first, accounting for nearly ** percent of global oil production in 2022. In comparison, Algeria was in the last position, accounting for only *** percent of the global oil production. Global oil companies Saudi Aramco, the state-owned petroleum and natural gas company in Saudi Arabia, is one of the top oil companies in terms of daily crude oil production, with a daily production volume of nearly **** million barrels per day. In contrast, Sinopec, a Chinese oil company, which largely focuses on refining, reported a daily production of ******* barrels.

    Description

    Global oil and gas production companies have gone through significant turbulence for most of the period. The pandemic and its accompanying lockdowns severely disrupted producers as revenue fell double digits and the industry's largest market, the transportation sector, was limited. This was quickly reversed as the economy opened and supply outpaced demand, causing prices to skyrocket. High prices, accompanied by swelling production, led to surging revenue. While prices eventually came back down late in the period, they remained high. Overall revenue has pushed up at a CAGR of 6.0% to $4.2 trillion through the end of 2024, including a slight 1.9% uptick in 2024 alone. Profit also surged as purchase costs came down. Emerging markets in BRIC nations, Southeast Asia and Africa continue to drive growth because of rapid industrialization and population increases, heightening the need for crude oil, natural gas and related downstream products. Even so, the gradual shift toward renewable energy poses challenges for producers, as many countries have implemented regulations and incentives to promote clean energy use. Geopolitical tensions and the uncertainties stemming from the global pandemic underscore the importance of diversifying supply sources to ensure energy security. Overall, industry revenue is set to push down at a CAGR of 3.6% to $3.5 trillion through the end of 2029. The bulk of this period will be highlighted by more efforts in oil and gas exploration and production in emerging markets, potentially transforming these regions into major global producers. Even so, the excess supply of oil and gas, combined with the push for sustainability, will drive prices down, leading to revenue contractions.

    The United States accounts for **** percent of global crude oil production, making it the largest oil producing country in the world. Crude oil production includes crude oil, shale oil, oil sand and NGLs (natural gas liquids: liquid content of natural gas in which the condensate is recovered separately). It excludes liquid fuels from other sources such as biomass and coal derivatives. Global crude oil supply Apart from the United States, Saudi Arabia and Russia are among the world’s largest producers of crude oil, each accounting for a share around ** percent. Saudi Arabia's oil production has amounted to roughly ********** barrels of oil per day for the past few years. Unsurprisingly, these countries are also some of the world’s largest oil consumers. Saudi Arabia consumes around *********** barrels per day, while the U.S. uses about ********** barrels. U.S. oil trade In the past, the U.S. relied heavily on oil imports from OPEC member countries like Saudi Arabia. However, due to an increase in domestic production output following technological advances, U.S. crude oil imports decreased by over one third since 2005. Conversely, U.S. petroleum exports skyrocketed, reaching ************* barrels per day in 2023.

Description

Global oil production amounted to ************ barrels per day in 2023. The level of oil production reached an all-time high in 2023. However, the coronavirus pandemic and its impact on transportation fuel demand led to a notable decline in 2020. Rising production and consumption Apart from events surrounding global economic crisis as in the late 2000's and 2020, oil production consistently increased every year for the past two decades. Similarly, global oil consumption only decreased in 2008, 2009, and 2020, but has otherwise increased to a higher level year after year. Oil and oil products remain invaluable commodities as most transportation fuels are petroleum-based and oil is a major raw material for the chemicals industry. Production by region and country While total production is rising, regional distribution has shifted, with the share of production declining the most in Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) since 2008, and rising the most in North America. Even though as a region the Middle East still produces the largest share of oil worldwide, the United States is currently the worl'ds largest producer of oil, followed by Saudi Arabia and Russia.
