據(jù)油價網(wǎng)4月18日報道，根據(jù)美國能源信息署周一發(fā)布的最新鉆井生產(chǎn)力報告，美國7個最多產(chǎn)的頁巖盆地的頁巖油產(chǎn)量將在5月增加13.2萬桶/日，至864.9萬桶/日。

根據(jù)EIA數(shù)據(jù)，這將是自2020年3月以來最大的月度產(chǎn)量增幅。

預(yù)計增幅最大的將來自二疊紀盆地，增加8.2萬桶/日，從2022年4月估計的505.5萬桶/日增至下個月的513.7萬桶/日。EIA預(yù)測，第二大漲幅將是Eagle Ford，預(yù)計5月份將增加2.6萬桶/日，至116.6萬桶/日。

EIA還在《鉆井生產(chǎn)力報告》中估計，已鉆井但未完井(DUC)已從2月的4387口下滑至3月的4273口——這是十多年來的最低水平。自2020年7月以來，DUC數(shù)量在過去21個月中的每個月都在穩(wěn)步下降，當時DUC數(shù)量幾乎是現(xiàn)在的兩倍。

2022年5月，天然氣產(chǎn)量也將增加，從4月的90,105百萬立方英尺增加到5月的90,826百萬立方英尺，其中海恩斯維爾(245百萬立方英尺)和阿巴拉契亞(百萬立方英尺)增幅最大。

自去年秋季汽油價格開始上漲以來，由于終端消費者繼續(xù)抱怨汽油價格居高不下，美國頁巖氣生產(chǎn)一直受到關(guān)注。

在EIA之前的DPR中，該機構(gòu)估計4月份美國七個主要頁巖盆地的總產(chǎn)量將增加11.7萬桶，達到870.8萬桶/日，比4月份的實際數(shù)據(jù)高出19.1萬桶/日。

EIA: U.S. Shale Production To See Sizeable Increase In May

U.S. Shale production in the seven most prolific shale basins is set to increase 132,000 bpd in May to 8.649 million bpd, according to the Energy Information Administration’s latest Drilling Productivity Report published on Monday.

It would be the largest monthly production increase since March 2020, according to EIA data.

The largest increase is expected to come from the Permian basin, increasing just 82,000 bpd from an estimated 5.055 million bpd in April 2022 to 5.137 million bpd next month. The EIA has forecast that the second largest gainer will be the Eagle Ford, which it expects will see an increase of 26,000 bpd, to 1.166 million bpd in May.

The EIA also estimated in the Drilling Productivity Report that Drilled but Uncompleted (DUC) wells had slipped from 4,387 in February to 4,273 in March—the lowest it’s been in over a decade. The DUC count has been steadily declining in each of the previous 21 months, since July 2020 when the DUC count was nearly double what it is today.

Gas production is also set to increase in May 2022, from 90,105 mcf/d in April to 90,826 mcf/d in May, with the largest gains seen from Haynesville (245 mcf/d) and Appalachia (+197 mcf/d).

U.S. shale production has found itself in the spotlight since gasoline prices began rising last fall, as end consumers continue to bemoan high gasoline prices.

In the EIA’s previous DPR, the agency had estimated that total production from the seven major U.S. shale basins would rise by 117,000 in April to reach 8.708 million bpd—191,000 bpd above where April figures actually landed.
