The U.S. Power Data Administration (EIA) elevated its forecasts for U.S. crude oil manufacturing for each 2024 and 2025 in its newest quick time period vitality outlook (STEO), which was launched final week.
Based on the March STEO, the EIA now sees U.S. crude oil output averaging 12.91 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2024, 13.13 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 13.25 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 13.47 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 13.19 million barrels per day total in 2024.
The EIA projected within the STEO that U.S. crude oil manufacturing will common 13.49 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2025, 13.66 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 13.68 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 13.78 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 13.65 million barrels per day total in 2025.

In its earlier February STEO, the EIA forecast that U.S. crude oil output would are available at 13.03 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2024, 13.12 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 13.06 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 13.18 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 13.10 million barrels per day total in 2024.
The EIA projected in its February STEO that U.S. crude oil output would common 13.37 million barrels per day within the first quarter of subsequent 12 months, 13.46 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 13.50 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 13.64 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 13.49 million barrels per day total in 2025.
Based on knowledge on the EIA web site, which reveals month-to-month U.S. area manufacturing of crude oil from January 1920 to December 2023 and was final up to date on February 29, U.S. area manufacturing of crude oil has solely hit 13 million barrels or above in six months.
These have been November 2019 (13.0 million barrels per day), August 2023 (13.041 million barrels per day), September 2023 (13.247 million barrels per day), October 2023 (13.219 million barrels per day), November 2023 (13.319 million barrels per day), and December 2023 (13.315 million barrels per day), the info confirmed.
Whole World Manufacturing
In its newest STEO, the EIA decreased its whole international liquid fuels manufacturing forecast for 2024 however saved its 2025 projection unchanged.
The EIA now sees whole world manufacturing coming in at 101.52 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2024, 101.35 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 102.82 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 102.96 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 102.17 million barrels per day total in 2024.
The EIA projected within the report that whole world manufacturing will common 103.27 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2025, 104.02 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 104.65 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 104.72 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 104.17 million barrels per day total in 2025.
In its earlier February STEO, the EIA forecast that whole world manufacturing would common 101.18 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2024, 102.27 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 102.88 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 102.87 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 102.30 million barrels per day total in 2024.
In that STEO, the EIA projected that whole world manufacturing would are available at 103.42 million barrels per day within the first quarter of 2025, 104.01 million barrels per day within the second quarter, 104.54 million barrels per day within the third quarter, 104.69 million barrels per day within the fourth quarter, and 104.17 million barrels per day total in 2025.
“Following the incorporation of the brand new OPEC+ voluntary manufacturing cuts, we now count on that international liquid fuels manufacturing will enhance by 0.4 million barrels per day in 2024, down from development of 0.6 million barrels per day in final month’s STEO and down from a rise of 1.8 million barrels per day in 2023,” the EIA mentioned in its March STEO.
“Though OPEC+ manufacturing cuts restrict total development in 2024, manufacturing exterior of OPEC+ grows by 1.5 million barrels per day, pushed primarily by 4 nations within the Americas – the US, Guyana, Brazil, and Canada. This development counteracts the decline in crude oil product topic to the OPEC+ settlement, which falls by 1.1 million barrels per day in 2024,” the EIA added.
“International liquids gas manufacturing will increase by 2.0 million barrels per day in 2025 in our forecast, pushed by a rise in OPEC+ crude oil manufacturing of 0.9 million barrels per day as current OPEC+ manufacturing targets expire on the finish of 2024, whereas manufacturing that isn’t topic to the OPEC+ settlement will increase by a further 1.1 million barrels per day,” it continued.
