Apr 12, 2016
After increasing at the start of March, crude oil prices stabilized and traded within a relatively narrow range through the first week of April. The North Sea Brent front month futures price rose $2.62 per barrel (b) from March 1 to settle at $39.43/b on April 7 (Figure 1). The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) front month futures price rose $2.86/b and settled at $37.26 over the same period.
Short-Term Energy Outlook
Apr 12, 2016
During the 2016 April-through-September summer driving season, U.S. regular gasoline retail prices are forecast to average $2.04/gallon (gal), compared with $2.63/gal last summer (see EIA Summer Fuels Outlook presentation). For all of 2016, the forecast average price is $1.94/gal, which if realized would save the average U.S. household about $350 on gasoline in 2016 compared with 2015, with annual average motor fuel expenditures at the lowest level in 12 years.
Drilling Productivity Report
Apr 11, 2016
EIA’s monthly Drilling Productivity Report (DPR) has been released. The DPR takes a fresh look at oil and natural gas production, starting with an assessment of how and where drilling for hydrocarbons is taking place. It uses recent data on the total number of drilling rigs in operation along with estimates of drilling productivity and estimated changes in production from existing oil and natural gas wells to provide estimated changes in oil and natural gas production for seven key fields.
U.S. Movements of Crude Oil By Rail
Apr 4, 2016
Monthly data on rail movements of crude oil have been updated for January 2016. Crude oil movements by rail have significantly increased over the past five years. The new data on crude-by-rail (CBR) movements are also fully integrated with EIA’s existing monthly petroleum supply statistics, which already include crude oil movements by pipeline, tanker, and barge.
Petroleum Supply Monthly

Supply and disposition of crude oil and petroleum products on a national and regional level. The data series describe production, imports and exports, movements, and inventories. Starting with this release of January 2016 data, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) included new data on ethanol and biodiesel transported by railroads. EIA now reports monthly rail movements for crude oil, ethanol, and biodiesel.
Company Level Imports

Monthly Biodiesel Production Report
Apr 4, 2016
The U.S. Energy Information Administration released new data today showing national and regional monthly biodiesel production for January 2016. In addition to biodiesel production, data included producer sales, producer stocks, and feedstock inputs.
Petroleum Marketing Monthly
Apr 1, 2016
The April 2016 Petroleum Marketing Monthly (PMM), with data through January 2016, presents monthly and annual price and volume statistics covering crude oil and refined products sales in the United States.
In this issue of the PMM, final 2015 annual averages are available for finished petroleum products in Tables 2 through 17. Preliminary monthly data show prices for crude oil and finished petroleum products continued to decline in January, while Prime Supplier data show sales of gasoline and No. 2 distillates fell from December levels. Also, updated state motor fuels tax information is available on the PMM website.
Natural Gas Monthly
Mar 31, 2016
• In January, for the third straight year, dry natural gas production was the highest for the month since EIA began reporting dry natural gas production data in 1973. Preliminary dry natural gas production for January 2016 was 2,301 billion cubic feet (Bcf), or 74.2 Bcf/day. This level was a 1.1 Bcf/day (1.5%) increase from January 2015 production of 73.1 Bcf/day.
• Preliminary dry natural gas consumption for January 2016 was 3,135 Bcf, or 101.1 Bcf/day. This was an increase of 0.2% from 3,130 Bcf in January 2015, or 0.2 Bcf/day.
• Year-over-year total consumption of dry natural gas in January decreased in two of the four consuming sectors, and increased in the other two. Deliveries of natural gas by consuming sector in January 2016 were as follows:
o Residential deliveries were 890 Bcf, or 28.7 Bcf/day, down 4.9% from 30.2 Bcf/day in January 2015.
o Commercial deliveries were 510 Bcf, or 16.5 Bcf/day, down 4.1% from 17.2 Bcf/day in January 2015.
o Industrial deliveries were 723 Bcf, or 23.3 Bcf/day, up 1.0% from 23.1 Bcf/day in January 2015.
o Electric power deliveries were 777 Bcf, or 25.1 Bcf/day, up 8.8% from 23.0 Bcf/day in January 2015.
Monthly Crude Oil and Natural Gas Production
Mar 31, 2016
These monthly production estimates are based on data from the EIA-914, Monthly Crude Oil, Lease Condensate, and Natural Gas Production Report. Beginning in January 2015, ten states were added to the EIA-914, bringing to 16 the number of states/areas with individual coverage, and crude oil production estimates were introduced. Estimates based on the EIA-914 are now provided for Arkansas, California, Colorado, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, West Virginia, Wyoming, and the Federal Gulf of Mexico. For natural gas, production for the remaining producing states (except Alaska) is reported in a single “Other states” entry. For crude oil, production from states/areas not individually covered in the EIA-914 is based on EIA’s previous estimation methodology. A document detailing EIA’s sampling and estimation methodology is available in the "Additional data and methodology" section at the right.
Monthly Energy Review
Mar 29, 2016

Trends in U.S. Oil and Natural Gas Upstream Costs
Mar 23, 2016
Average 2015 well drilling and completion costs in five onshore areas decline 25% and 30% below their level in 2012
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) commissioned IHS Global Inc. (IHS) to perform a study of upstream drilling and production costs. The IHS report assesses capital and operating costs associated with drilling, completing, and operating wells and facilities. The report focuses on five onshore regions, including the Bakken, Eagle Ford, and Marcellus plays, two plays (Midland and Delaware) within the Permian basin, as well as the offshore federal Gulf of Mexico (GOM). The period studied runs from 2006 through 2015, with forecasts to 2018. Among the report’s key findings are that average well drilling and completion costs in five onshore areas evaluated in 2015 were between 25% and 30% below their level in 2012, when costs per well were at their highest point over the past decade.
Wind and Solar Data Projections from the U.S. Energy Information Administration: Past Performance and Planned Enhancements
Mar 22, 2016
In an effort to improve EIA's approach to providing accurate, comprehensive data, and useful projections for policy analysis, EIA has conducted a review of its historical data and projections of capacity, generation, and cost projections for wind and solar technologies. While EIA's internal processes and engagement with stakeholders are both continuing, this paper shares some early findings of EIA's current review of our wind and solar data and projections, focusing in part on some of the issues that have been publicly raised by EIA's critics.
