Oil Production Data

1. United States oil production by week (conventional and non-conventional oil)
   • updates Wednesdays.
   • This is the most up to the date graph of which I’m aware.
   • Given the United States is currently the world’s number one producer, I suspect as it goes, so goes the Western world. And the rest of the world is no picnic either
   • With the war with Iran, of this isn’t bumped up, I expect it’s because we’re at peak and it can’t be bumped up.
2. World oil production by month (conventional and non-conventional)
   • Updated monthly through May of 2025, but only goes back 5 years without a subscription
   • Back when I started watching this site in 2020, it showed a peak in November 2018 of 84.49 million barrels a day.
3. World oil production by year (conventional and non-conventional). This graph appears to be updated annually with a year delay, and looks more optimistic, showing a peak in 2024.
   • I think it might differ from the October 2018 peak, by being an average for the year, rather than a monthly spike.
   • It does however, go back many years and does not require a paid subscription. It’s also given in “terawatt hours of energy” rather than in barrels, so that might affect it also. Still this one lets you graph any country individually, and/or the world in total and it goes back to 1900 for free.
4. EIA crude oil production
   • No graph but the top line is updated to Q3 2025, for world, the United States and other countries. It only shows 2024-25, with world production in the rage of 76-79 (and change) million barrels per day.
   • I will monitor to see if it’s continually updated or replaced by a different PDF/url.\
