据哈特能源11月18日消息,美国能源情报署(EIA)在11月18日的月度预测中称,美国7个主要页岩油层的原油产量有望在12月达到创纪录的913万桶/天,增加约4.9万桶/天。
最大的地层是德克萨斯州和新墨西哥州的二叠纪盆地,预计产量将增加5.7万桶/天,至473万桶/天,这是自7月以来的最小增幅,但抵消了其他地区预计产量下降的影响。
数据显示,北达科他州和蒙大拿州巴肯地区的产量预计将小幅增加9000桶/天,达到创纪录的每日151万桶。
与此同时,预计伊格福特和阿拉达科盆地的产量将下降。
二叠纪和巴肯的产量增长一直处于页岩热潮的前沿,这一热潮帮助美国超越沙特和俄罗斯,成为世界上最大的石油生产国。

EIA: US Shale Oil Output To Hit Record 9.1 Million Barrels Per Day In December
U.S. crude oil output from seven major shale formations is expected to rise to a record 9.13 million barrels per day (MMbbl/d), an increase of about 49,000 bbl/d, in December, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said in a monthly forecast on Nov. 18.
Output at the largest formation, the Permian Basin of Texas and New Mexico, is expected to rise 57,000 bbl/d to 4.73 MMbbl/d, the smallest increase since July but offsetting projected declines elsewhere.
Output in North Dakota and Montana’s Bakken region is expected to edge higher by 9,000 bbl/d to a record 1.51 MMbbl/d, the data showed.
Meanwhile, production declines are forecast in the Eagle Ford and Anadarko basins.
Production increases in the Permian and Bakken have been at the forefront of a shale boom that has helped make the United States the biggest oil producer in the world, ahead of Saudi Arabia and Russia.
