Will the world ever reach peak crude production of November 2018 again? (part 1)<\/a><\/h3>\n
\n

According to EIA data global crude & condensate production peaked in November 2018 at 84.5 mb\/d. The peak was short-lived: 2 months above 83 mb\/d plus 3 months above 84 mb\/d while the average for the remaining months was 82.2 mb\/d.<\/p>\n

US shale oil (incremental from 2011), Canadian tar sands (incremental from 2011) and Iraq\u2019s oil (incremental from 2008) contributed to an increase in production above the Dec 2005 peak of 74.2 mb\/d. The 2005 peak caused the 2008 oil price shock (Chinese demand for the Olympic games also played a role) and the 2009 financial crisis. The response in the US was quantitative easing QE1-QE3, copied and repeated by many countries, creating a gigantic asset bubble.<\/p>\n

Oil prices went up already before the war in Ukraine which is changing the whole world, including oil supply and demand. Lockdowns from Covid, as now again experienced in China, complicate matters.

Russia had been a steady producer over the last 15 years, slowly inching up production by 2 mb\/d since 2005 but recently flattening out below 11 mb\/d. A Rystad study predicted a peak in 2020. More details are in this previous post:<\/p>\n
