EIA expects US fossil fuel production to hit new high in 2023After falling in 2020, US combined output of fossil fuels (including natural gas, crude oil and coal) has increased 2% in 2021 to 77.14 billion UK thermal power units. . Based on our latest forecast Short-term energy outlook (STEO), we expect US fossil fuel production to continue to grow in both 2022 and 2023, surpassing 2019 production, reaching a new record in 2023.
Of total US fossil fuel production in 2021, dry natural gas accounting for 46%, the largest proportion. Crude oil accounts for 30%, coal accounts for 15%, and natural gas plant liquid (NGPL) for 9%. We expect these stocks to remain similar through 2023.

Permian oil production record
By Irina Slav – January 19, 2022Crude oil production in Permian shale hit a record high last month, averaging 4.92 million bpd, the Energy Information Administration reports in its latest issue. version of its Drilling Productivity Report.
But top shale play in the United States is seen to have driven output even higher, to 4.996 million bpd this month and 5.076 million bpd in February, the EIA also said. .
