About This Dataset

Countries by Crude Oil Production 2024

United States output of around 13.3 million barrels a day is the highest any country has ever produced, a position reached through shale drilling in the Permian Basin rather than conventional fields. Saudi Arabia sits third partly by choice: it holds spare capacity in reserve and adjusts output through OPEC+ quotas, so its figure reflects policy as much as capability.

Analysis

The top three in Crude Oil Production (Thousand Barrels/Day) in 2024 are United States (13,300), Russia (9,500) and Saudi Arabia (9,000). United States tops the list without dominating it, holding 24.7% of what the 8 entities record between them. The other 6 are bunched between 3,700 and 9,000.
