List of countries by oil production

This is a list of countries by oil production (i.e., petroleum production), as compiled from the U.S. Energy Information Administration database for calendar year 2022, tabulating all countries on a comparable best-estimate basis. Compared with shorter-term data, the full-year figures are less prone to distortion from periodic maintenance shutdowns and other seasonal cycles. The volumes in the table represent crude oil and lease condensate, the hydrocarbon liquids collected at or near the wellhead. The volumes in this table does not include biofuel, refinery gain (the increase in liquid volumes during oil refining), or liquids separated from natural gas in gas processing plants (natural gas liquids).[1] Production data including these other liquids is usually referred to as "Total Liquids Production," "Petroleum & Other Liquids," etc.[2]

Top 5 oil producing countries 1980-2020
World oil production

Under this definition (crude and condensate), total world oil production in 2022 averaged 80,618,895 barrels per day. Approximately 69% came from the top ten countries, and an overlapping 38% came from the thirteen current OPEC members, in the table below. Members of OPEC+, which includes current OPEC members produce 58% of the world's petroleum.

In recent history, the top three producers have been the United States, Russia, and Saudi Arabia. Each of these countries experienced major production declines at different times in the past, but since 2014 all three have been producing near their peak rates of 9 to 11 million barrels per day.[3] Saudi Arabia and Russia also top the list of oil exporting countries.[4]

The United States became a net petroleum exporter in 2020, for the first time since at least 1949.[5] U.S. crude oil exports reached a record high in the first half of 2023.[6] U.S. oil production reached a record high in October 2023.[7]
