The EIA forecasts that crude production from the Permian Basin will average about 6.3M barrels per day this year, an increase of 8% over 2023

Once again, the Permian Basin is expected to lead growth in the nation’s overall oil production as per EIA.

The Energy Information Administration forecasts that crude production from the Permian Basin will average about 6.3 million barrels per day this year. This is an increase of 8% over 2023 and accounting for nearly half of all crude production.

Permian production will contribute about two thirds of all US oil production through the end of 2025. This is according to the EIA’s June Short-Term Energy Outlook. The EIA expects increased production from the Permian. It also affect regions since it will drive US production to record highs in both 2024 and 2025.

“The Permian region’s proximity to crude oil refine and export terminals on the Gulf Coast. It established takeaway capacity and improved new well productivity to support crude oil production growth in the region,” the EIA wrote in its June 2024 Short-Term Energy Outlook.

“Without a doubt, the mighty Permian Basin is the major factor. It makes Texas the 8th largest economy in the world”. This is what Todd Staples, president of the Texas Oil & Gas Association, commented to the Reporter-Telegram by email.

“The Permian Basin leads US energy production. It single-handedly contributing nearly 45% of domestic oil production, thanks to its phenomenal reserves, private sector investment in infrastructure, and Texas’ welcoming business climate that includes a stable regulatory environment,” he continued.

US natural gas prices are set for structural upside over the next 20 years as incremental demand from data centres and AI has prompted a gas generation renaissance.

Mexican Crude Production Collapses Ahead of Elections – High demand sends LNG prices climbing around the world!

– Providing a somber reflection on Mexico’s upstream industry before the June 2 general election, crude production by Mexico’s state oil company Pemex fell below 1.5 million b/d for the first time in over 40 years.

– April’s crude output of 1.474 million b/d represents an almost 200,000 b/d year-over-year drop. It marks a new trough for the country! This is the lowest point since Mexico started producing from the giant Cantarell field and tapped into its prolific offshore waters in the late 1970s.

– The Lopez Obrador government forbade new hydrocarbon bidding rounds. It has instructed Pemex to focus on onshore and shallow-water fields rather than investing into higher-risk projects.

– Higher condensate production from onshore assets such as Ixachi or Quesqui offset some of the declines in total supply figures, however not enough to halt the tide of legacy declines.

Could AI Gas Demand Lift US Natural Gas Prices

– US natural gas prices are set for structural upside over the next 20 years as incremental demand from data centres and AI has prompted a gas generation renaissance.

– According to WoodMackenzie, the growth in US natural gas demand could amount to as much as 30 BCf/d, pushing Henry Hub futures above $4 per mmBtu by 2035 and closer to $6 per mmBtu by 2045.

– Electricity demand from data centers currently adds up to 11 GW of generation, but this should…
