Go West, Young Woman! -- January 25, 2019

Re-posting.

US crude oil production to keep setting records until 2027: EIA -- link here. Data points:
  • US crude oil production will keep setting annual records until 2027
  • US crude oil production will remain higher than 14 million bpd through 2040
  • why? continuously growing shale production
  • the US has been a net energy importer since 1953, but continued growth in petroleum and natural gas exports results in the US becoming a net energy exporter by 2020 in all scenarios
Embedded in the link above is another link that takes you to an EIA pdf. I went through all eighty-three slides; most of the slides had more than one graphic (generally two). This was the one graphic that caught my attention:
Another interesting graphic:
Of all the regions, the most "diverse" is clearly that region identified as "Mountain." For me, it's a better graphic identifying major metropolitan areas rather than "regional identifiers."
