WASHINGTON, October 18, 2019 – U.S. crude oil production reached a new all-time high of 12.4 million barrels per day (mb/d) – and U.S. natural gas liquids production sustained a record 4.8 mb/d – in September, according to data released today from the American Petroleum Institute’s September 2019 Monthly Statistical Report (MSR). This milestone came as global markets have grappled with geopolitical and trade tensions that underscored the ability of U.S. production to cushion American consumers by helping to keep prices low and reduce price volatility.
WASHINGTON, September 19, 2019 – The American Petroleum Institute (API) today released its Q3 2019 Industry Outlook and August 2019 Monthly Statistical Report, highlighting how America’s domestic energy revolution is empowering economic and environmental progress. The increasing use of clean natural gas for electric power generation has helped drive U.S. carbon emissions to their lowest levels in a generation and lower consumer energy expenditures.
WASHINGTON, August 15, 2019 – Total U.S. petroleum demand averaged 20.8 million barrels per day (mb/d) in July 2019, which represented a 0.9% year-over-year increase and the highest demand for the month since 2005, according to the latest Monthly Statistical Report released today by the American Petroleum Institute (API). The increase in demand came as the U.S. continued to sustain world-leading production, which continues to meet virtually all global oil demand growth. This production cushion combined with high refinery utilization is furthering U.S energy security and benefiting American consumers.
WASHINGTON, July 18, 2019 – U.S. crude oil exports reached a new all-time high of 3.3 million barrels per day (mb/d) in June 2019, a 1.1 mb/d year-over-year increase, according to the latest Monthly Statistical Report released today by the American Petroleum Institute (API). This latest milestone came as the U.S. continued to sustain world-leading crude oil production of 12.2 mb/d, including 5.0 mb/d in West Texas’ Permian Basin. Increasing U.S. crude oil exports are a net positive for American consumers who have benefited from significant declines in energy expenditures since the rise of the shale revolution.
