Within the period of consideration, the figure peaked at **** million barrels of oil daily in 2005. The U.S. is the country with the highest oil consumption in the world. Domestic production U.S. oil production saw a noticeable growth after the Great Recession, as the energy industry developed extraction technologies to reduce the need to import high-priced oil. In 2021, domestic production amounted to **** million barrels per day, while figures in 2008 stood at *** million barrels per day. Texas is by far the leading crude oil producing state, with an annual production of *** billion barrels in 2024. New Mexico was the second largest producer, at a third of Texas’ production. American oil companies As of June 2025, ExxonMobil had the highest market capitalization of any oil and gas producer in the world. Chevron and ConocoPhillips were also among the top 10 oil and gas companies worldwide based on market value, ranking ****** and ******** respectively. ExxonMobil was founded in 1999, as a merger of Exxon and Mobil, formerly the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and Standard Oil Company of New York, respectively. ExxonMobil is headquartered in Irving, Texas (although it has recently announced it will move its headquarters further South to its Houston campus) and generated an operating revenue of *** billion U.S. dollars in 2023.

The transportation sector is the greatest consumer of petroleum in the United States. In 2024, it was responsible for the consumption of roughly 13.8 million barrels of petroleum per day. The industrial sector followed, using an average of 5.4 million barrels per day.

Oil consumption worldwide reached approximately ************* barrels per day in 2024. This was an increase of around ****percent in comparison to the previous year. Apart from the years of the financial crisis and the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, oil consumption consecutively increased in every year since 1998. Oil demand by region As a region, Asia-Pacific has the highest demand for oil in the world, followed closely by the Americas. The United States alone contributes strongly to this high regional demand in the Americas, as it is the country with the largest petroleum consumption in the world. Oil is mainly used as a raw material for motor fuels or as a feedstock in the chemicals industry for products ranging from adhesives to plastics. It has historically also been used as a source for electricity and heat generation, although to a lesser extent than other fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas. Where is oil produced? Though the U.S. holds only around **** percent of proved oil reserves, it currently accounts for the greatest share of global crude oil production, surpassing countries with far larger oil reserves such as Saudi Arabia. With the expansion of the shale oil industry through new methods of extraction like hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, the United States has become less dependent on oil imports as domestic production has drastically increased.

The United States consumed 23.5 million barrels of petroleum and petroleum products per day in 2024. This figure represents an increase compared to the previous two years. Overall, petroleum use in the U.S. grew within the period of consideration.

The United States and China are the top largest consumers of oil in the world, totaling ********** and ************ barrels per day, respectively. In the last decade, the share of global oil consumption from Europe and North America have begun to decline, whereas consumption levels from Asia Pacific and other regions have risen. As other sources of energy become more cost effective and due to the prominence of new transportation technologies, oil consumption worldwide is expected to reach a peak in the near future. Refining oil Crude oil is refined into petroleum products, such as gasoline and diesel fuel, and used for a wide variety of products, although many refineries focus on transportation fuels. Generally, crude oil feedstocks are processed by an oil production plant and is an essential part of the downstream petroleum industry.

The global demand for crude oil (including biofuels) in 2024 amounted to 103.75 million barrels per day. The source expects economic activity and related oil demand to pick up by the end of the year, with forecast suggesting it could increase to more than 105 million barrels per day. Motor fuels make up majority of oil demand Oil is an important and versatile substance, used in different ways and in different forms for many applications. The road sector is the largest oil consuming sector worldwide. It accounts for nearly one half of the global demand for oil, largely due to reliance on motor spirits made from petroleum. The OPEC projects global oil product demand to reach 120 million barrels per day by 2050, with transportation fuels such as gasoline and diesel expected to remain the most consumed products. Diesel and gasoil demand is forecast to amount to 32.5 million barrels per day in 2050, up from 29 million barrels in 2023. Gasoline demand is forecast at 27 million barrels by 2050. Differences in forecast oil demand widen between major energy institutions Despite oil producing bodies such as the OPEC seeing continued importance for crude oil in the future, other forecast centers have been more moderate in their demand outlooks. For example, between the EIA, IEA, and OPEC, the latter was the only one to expect significant growth for oil demand until 2030.

Texas is by far the largest oil-producing state in the United States. In 2024, Texas produced a total of over two billion barrels. In a distant second place is New Mexico, which produced 744.6 million barrels in the same year. Virginia is the smallest producing state in the country, at three thousand barrels. Macro perspective of U.S. oil production The U.S. oil production totaled some 19.4 million barrels of oil per day, or a total annual oil production of 827 million metric tons in 2023. As the largest oil producer in the U.S., it is not surprising that Texas is home to the most productive U.S. oil basin, the Permian. The Permian has routinely accounted for at least 50 percent of total onshore production. Regional distribution of U.S. oil production A total of 32 of the 50 U.S. states produce oil. There are five regional divisions for oil production in the U.S., known as the Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts (PADD). These five regional divisions of the allocation of fuels derived from petroleum products were established in the U.S. during the Second World War and they are still used today for data collection purposes. In line with the fact that Texas is by far the largest U.S. oil producing state, PADD 3 (Gulf Coast) is also the largest oil producing PADD, as it also includes the federal offshore region in the Gulf of Mexico. There are around 590 operational oil and gas rigs in the country as of February 2025.
