The Railroad Commission of Texas this week released preliminary data on statewide oil and gas production for the month of January 2025. The figures for this month reflect output from 158,555 oil wells and 83,176 gas wells.
Keeping in mind that these are not full, final figures, the RRC reported combined crude and condensate output of 143,648,421 bbl, or about 4.634 MMbpd. When this figure is more finalized, the number is likely to be at or above 165 MMbbl, or 5.323 MMbpd.
Texas production of crude and condensate averaged 5.475 MMbpd, up 0.2% from the 2023 level, but up a noticeable 14.4% since the low point of 2021 (4.784 MMbpd).
Similarly, the RRC reported that natural gas output from Texas gas wells, combined with casinghead gas from oil wells, totaled 1,000.7 Bcf, or 1.001 Tcf, during January. This works out to 32.3 Bcfd. However, as data become more finalized, this level should rise to 1,065 Bcf (1.065 Tcf) of gas for the month or greater, equating to 34.4 Bcfd or more.
Texas output of natural gas totaled 12.619 Tcf (34.479 Bcfd) in 2024, up 2.6% from 2023’s level, and up 23.7% from the 10.205 Tcf (27.958 Bcfd) total recorded in 2019.
