Assumptions for Annual Energy Outlook 2015
Sep 10, 2015
This report presents the major assumptions of the National Energy Modeling System (NEMS) used to generate the projections in the Annual Energy Outlook 2015, including general features of the model structure, assumptions concerning energy markets, and the key input data and parameters that are the most significant in formulating the model results.
Short-Term Energy Outlook - Market Prices and Uncertainty Report
Sep 9, 2015
Crude oil prices declined through most of August before rising at the end of the month and in the first week of September. The North Sea Brent front month futures price rose $1.16 per barrel (b) since August 3 to settle at $50.68/b on September 3. The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) front month futures price increased $1.58/b over the same period to settle at $46.75/b.
Short-Term Energy Outlook
Sep 9, 2015
North Sea Brent crude oil prices averaged $47/barrel (b) in August, a $10/b decrease from July. This third consecutive monthly decrease in prices likely reflects concerns about lower economic growth in emerging markets, expectations of higher oil exports from Iran, and continuing growth in global inventories. Crude oil price volatility increased significantly, with Brent prices showing daily changes of more than 5% for four consecutive trading days from August 27 to September 1, the longest such stretch since December 2008.
U.S. Energy Mapping System Updates
Sep 1, 2015
Biodiesel plants and ethanol plants were added as new layers. Updates to existing layers include coal mines, Federal and Indian lands, liquefied natural gas import/export terminals, natural gas processing plants, oil and gas wells, petroleum ports, petroleum product terminals, petroleum refineries, and solid biomass resources. These changes were also implemented on related interactive State maps such as the Energy Disruptions and Flood Vulnerability Assessment maps.
Effects of Removing Restrictions on U.S. Crude Oil Exports
Sep 1, 2015
The recent rise in domestic crude oil production from 5.6 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2009 to 8.7 million b/d in 2014 and the prospect of continued supply growth have sparked interest in the question of how the relaxation or removal of current policies, which restrict but do not ban exports of crude oil produced in the United States, might affect markets for both crude oil and petroleum products over the next decade. This new EIA report explores this issue.
New Interactive Map of Major Tight Oil and Shale Gas Plays in Lower 48 States
Sep 1, 2015
This map displays boundaries, structure (elevation of the top contours), and isopachs (thickness contours) for major low permeability oil and gas plays in the lower 48 States along with energy infrastructure information.
Petroleum Marketing Monthly
Sep 1, 2015
The September 2015 Petroleum Marketing Monthly (PMM), with data through June 2015, presents monthly and annual price and volume statistics covering crude oil and refined products sales in the United States.
In this edition of the PMM, preliminary data show crude oil prices continued to rise in June, while price movements for sales of finished products by refiners show mixed trends. U.S.-level Prime Supplier data show June sales of gasoline and diesel fuel rose from both month- and year-ago levels.
U.S. Movements of Crude Oil By Rail
Aug 31, 2015
Monthly data on rail movements of crude oil have been updated for June 2015. 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.
Company Level Imports
Aug 31, 2015
Imports data at the company level collected from the EIA-814 Monthly Imports Report.
Petroleum Supply Monthly
Aug 31, 2015
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.
Natural Gas Monthly
Aug 31, 2015
• Dry natural gas production in June was the highest for that month since EIA began reporting dry gas production data. Dry natural gas production has increased year-over-year for each month since March 2013; dry production has not decreased year-over-year for any month since February 2013. Preliminary dry natural gas production for June 2015 was 2,236 billion cubic feet (Bcf), or 74.5 Bcf/day. This level was a 4.7 Bcf/day increase from 69.8 Bcf/day in June 2014, a 6.7% rise.
• June’s dry natural gas consumption level was the highest on record for the month, dating back to 2001. This was the fifth consecutive month that saw a record high level of consumption for the given month. Preliminary total natural gas consumption for June 2015 was 1,927 Bcf, or 64.2 Bcf/day. This level was an increase of 5.4% from 1,765 Bcf in June 2014, or 58.8 Bcf/day.
• For the fourth consecutive month, year-over-year total consumption of dry natural gas decreased in three of four sectors, with the exception being electric power deliveries, which again increased significantly year to year:
o Deliveries to residential consumers for June 2015 were 123 Bcf, or 4.1 Bcf/day, down 1.6% from 4.2 Bcf/day in June 2014. For the second consecutive month, residential consumption was the second-lowest level for the month on record, dating back to 1973.
o Commercial deliveries were 135 Bcf, or 4.5 Bcf/day, a 4.3% decrease from 4.7 Bcf/day in June 2014.
o Industrial deliveries were 577 Bcf, or 19.2 Bcf/day, down 1.7% from 19.6 Bcf/day in June 2014.
o Electric power deliveries were 889 Bcf, or 29.6 Bcf/day, a 22.8% rise from 24.1 Bcf/day in June 2014. June’s electric power consumption was the highest level for the month on record.
Notice of Changes to the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report
Aug 31, 2015
To enhance the transparency and utility of the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report (WNGSR), the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) will make several important changes:
The regional breakdown of the data will now include five regions for working gas in the Lower 48 states.
The threshold for published revisions and reclassifications between working and base gas will be reduced from 7 billion cubic feet (Bcf) to 4 Bcf.
Unscheduled release of revisions to weekly estimates of working gas held in underground storage will occur when the cumulative sum of data changes or corrections to working gas and the net change between the two most recent report weeks is at least 10 Bcf.
Monthly Crude Oil and Natural Gas Production
Aug 31, 2015
Beginning with the June 2015 data, EIA is providing estimates for crude oil production (including lease condensate) based on data from the EIA-914 survey. Survey-based monthly production estimates starting with January 2015 are provided for Arkansas, California, Colorado, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Wyoming, and the Federal Gulf of Mexico. For two states covered by the EIA-914—Oklahoma and West Virginia—and all remaining oil-producing states and areas not individually covered by the EIA-914, production estimates are based on the previous methodology (using lagged state data). When EIA completes its validation of Oklahoma and West Virginia data, estimates for these states will also be based on EIA-914 data. For all states and areas, production data prior to 2015 are estimates published in the Petroleum Supply Monthly. Later in 2015, EIA will report monthly crude oil production by API gravity category for the individually-surveyed EIA-914 states.
Monthly Biodiesel Production Report
Aug 31, 2015
The U.S. Energy Information Administration released new data today showing national and regional monthly biodiesel production for June 2015. In addition to biodiesel production, data included producer sales, producer stocks, and feedstock inputs.
