OIL

The EIA expects nine new Gulf of Mexico natural gas and crude oil fields to start in 2022.

  • The EIA forecast that new fields coming online in 2022 will account for 5% of natural gas production and 14% of crude oil production in the U.S. Federal Offshore Gulf of Mexico (GOM) by the end of 2023.
  • The EIA expect that GOM natural gas production will average 2.1 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2023, down 0.1 Bcf/d from 2022 and expect that GOM crude oil production will average 1.8 million barrels per day (MMb/d) in 2023, about the same as in 2022.
