EIA Predicts Record Annual USA Oil Output in 2026

by Andreas Exarheas|Rigzone Staff | Thursday, August 13, 2026

In its latest short term energy outlook (STEO), which was released on August 11 and completed its forecast on August 6, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected that annual U.S. oil production will hit a record this year.

According to the STEO, the EIA sees U.S. crude oil output, including lease condensate, averaging 13.80 million barrels per day in 2026. That’s the highest 2026 U.S. crude oil production forecast in any of the EIA’s eight monthly STEOs so far this year and would be the highest U.S. production figure ever for a single year.

An EIA data page displaying annual U.S. field production of crude oil from 1859 to 2025, which was last updated on July 31, showed that the highest U.S. crude oil production figure for a single year came in 2025, at 13.586 million barrels per day.
