Oil and Gas Production by State
Oil and gas production by state for 2025 comes from the U.S. Energy Information Administration's final annual tables, released September 30, 2026. The table gives crude oil and marketed natural gas for every producing state, each state's share of U.S. output and the change from 2024.
In 2025 the United States produced 4,986,606 thousand barrels of crude oil, up 2.7% from 4,855,656 in 2024. Texas produced 2,102,613 thousand barrels, 42.2% of the U.S. total. U.S. marketed natural gas production was 43,229,110 million cubic feet. These are agency figures, not the production of any property, and a state total says nothing about a particular tract.
Not yet published. EIA had not published 2025 marketed gas for 18 states when this page was built, including Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana and others. Those cells say “not published”; they are not zero, and those states are left out of gas comparisons.

Why production by state matters to a mineral owner
A royalty check is the volume sold, times the price the operator realizes, times your decimal interest, less any deductions the lease allows and the state’s severance tax. State production adds that volume up for a whole state. It shows where operators are drilling and selling, and it points to the state regulator that keeps the well by well records naming each operator and what each well produces.
State totals move with prices and drilling programs. A rising total does not mean a particular tract produces, and a falling one says nothing certain about a given well. For your own interest, the regulator’s well records and your check stubs are the evidence; the royalty calculator works through the arithmetic.
Production also drives each state’s severance tax. The severance tax by state page sets out each state’s rates and how they reach royalty owners.
How to read these numbers
Values are as published by EIA in its annual tables (crude: Crude Oil Production; gas: Natural Gas Marketed Production). AMR adds the change and share columns; shares divide by the U.S. total, which includes federal offshore production.
States EIA does not list are absent, not zero. EIA revises recent years; this page records the release it used, and the change record notes revisions since the June edition.
A state total is not a property’s production and is not a valuation. Production records for wells are kept by each state regulator.
Use and license

Common questions about production by state
Which state produces the most oil?
Texas produced 2,102,613 thousand barrels of crude oil in 2025, 42.2 percent of the U.S. total, by EIA’s annual table released September 30, 2026. New Mexico and North Dakota came next, with 804,950 and 427,561 thousand barrels.
Which state produces the most natural gas?
Texas led marketed natural gas production in 2025 at 12,656,556 million cubic feet, ahead of Pennsylvania and New Mexico. EIA had not yet published 2025 gas figures for 18 states when this page was built, so the ranking covers the states with published figures.
How much oil and gas does the United States produce?
In 2025 the United States produced 4,986,606 thousand barrels of crude oil, about 13.7 million barrels a day, and 43,229,110 million cubic feet of marketed natural gas, about 43.2 trillion cubic feet.
Does my state’s production affect my royalty?
Only through your own wells. Your check depends on the volume your wells sell, the price the operator realizes, your decimal interest and any deductions, and a state total sets none of these. The royalty calculator shows how the pieces combine.
Where does this data come from?
From EIA’s annual tables, Crude Oil Production and Natural Gas Marketed Production, released September 30, 2026 and read on October 1, 2026. EIA revises recent years, and this page names the release it used.
