We cannot drill our way out of this oil crisis. Since 2000, oil companies working in the U.S. have doubled the number of wells drilled per year.

Although increased drilling has added new oil to the nation's supply, it has not done so fast enough to offset the terminal decline of existing fields.

We are going to have to import more of our oil. Period.

The highlights of the latest Oil Market Report estimates oil production fell 400kbpd in April, to 86.8 mbpd. This implies a markdown in the March figure from 87.34 to about 87.2 mbpd.

The IEA are now estimating demand of only 86.8 mbpd in 2008. So production will have to stay close to April's level to avoid major stock draws. Only about 6 months ago, the IEA was predicting demand of 88.2 mbpd, in 2008.

The differential of 1.4-mbd from EIA stats is getting a bit absurd. It is based on IEA's failure to address energy inputs for BTL, heavy, x-heavy & bitumen processing.

As the TrendLines charts come up for update this month, i've been deleting references to their recent records and/or using EIA data instead:

Hey smart folks- Can you educate me a bit better to the figures they are using. Is that total crude and condensates (all liquids) they are talking about? Is there a separate place to find out exact crude oil production figures? Thanks.

Do you know if IEA estimates for consumption are 1.4 mbpd higher than the EIA figures? I don't think this information is readily available, though the EIA do show monthly estimates for consumption, in their STEO.

The EIA data is broken down somewhat in their monthy report but I'm not sure it's all the breakdown you'd like.

IEA consumption is 0.9-mbd higher than EIA for March/April. BTW, March figures are for Q1 ... not March monthly.

Well, I guess that most of the production difference is accounted for in a higher consumption figure. That still leaves 0.5 mbpd extra, on the IEA figures (though I think the 1.4 gap may have narrowed this month).
