Monthly Energy Review

Dec 23, 2025
The Monthly Energy Review is our comprehensive report on recent and historical energy statistics. According to our December 2025 report, preliminary estimates for September 2025 indicate the transportation sector accounted for 71% of total U.S. petroleum consumption, the industrial sector accounted for 25%, the commercial sector for 2%, the residential sector for 1%, and the electric power sector for less than 1%.

Short-Term Energy Outlook

Dec 9, 2025
Global oil prices. We expect global oil inventories to continue to rise through 2026, putting downward pressure on oil prices in the coming months. We forecast the Brent crude oil price will fall to an average of $55 per barrel (b) in the first quarter of 2026 (1Q26) and remain near that price for the rest of next year. Although we expect crude oil prices to continue to fall in the coming months, we assess that both the OPEC+ production policy and China’s continued inventory builds will limit price declines.

U.S. Oil and Natural Gas Wells by Production Rate

Dec 8, 2025
Our Well Distribution Report presents historical, annual state-level data on well distribution by size and technology and analyzes emerging trends through 2024. Crude oil and natural gas wells drilled horizontally through hydrocarbon-bearing formations are among the most productive wells in the United States. The total number of horizontally drilled wells has increased 98% since 2014. In 2024, 78% of the more than 918,000 U.S. wells produced 15 barrels of oil equivalent per day or less. These wells are mostly older and drilled vertically.

Natural gas for power generation flat this summer, record high expected in 2027 ›

We forecast natural gas consumption by the U.S. electric power sector this summer will remain near recent highs and set a new record next summer in our May Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO). Despite a 2% increase in overall U.S. electricity demand this summer, we expect natural gas-fired electricity generation to be similar to last summer, primarily because of forecast increased generation from renewables. In the May STEO, we forecast natural gas consumed by the U.S. electric power sector will average 43.7 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) during the summer (Juneâ€&September), the same as in the summer of 2025, and 4% above the five-year summer average (2021â€&2025). We forecast natural gas consumption for power generation will increase 6% (2.4 Bcf/d) during the summer of 2027 to 46.1 Bcf/d, surpassing the previous record set in 2024 by 3%.
