RBN Energy: explaining the bump in heavier crude oil production in Texas, New Mexico, and North Dakota. Archived.
The Energy Information Administration (EIA) recently raised a few
eyebrows across the energy industry with a report that producers in
three key shale states — including Texas, the nation’s #1 oil producer —
seem to be extracting larger amounts of “heavier” crude oil. Of course,
the oil is only heavier relative to the light and superlight grades
that have been produced in copious amounts since the dawn of the Shale
Revolution. But these denser, lower-API volumes have recently helped
drive growth in total crude output. In today’s RBN blog, we unpack what
the EIA discussed in its writeup, explore some of the possible drivers
behind the apparently heavier oil production, and discuss what it might
mean for the domestic market.
