Top 10 Oil and Gas Companies Based on US Crude Oil Production

Top 10 Oil Companies based on US Crude Production

These 10 companies produce the most crude oil per day in the USA (bbl/d)

1 - Chevron | bbl/d: 997,000

Chevron is the big dog of the big dogs. They produce an astounding 997,000 bbl/d (MBD). Much of this is driven by the Permian, San Joaquin Valley, and US Gulf of Mexico. That would fill 5,816 school buses everyday.

2 - ConocoPhillips  | bbl/d: 742,000

ConocoPhillips is the 2nd biggest producer of crude oil each day in the US. With the approval of the Willow project it is set to get even bigger. The project will produce 180,000 barrels per day. This is on top of other assets they have throughout the USA.

3 - Exxonmobil | bbl/d: 556,000

Exxon has crushed the Permian recently with acquisitions of Pioneer and XTO. They also have a strong presence in the Gulf of Mexico and North Dakota... and pretty much everywhere else.

4 - Oxy | bbl/d: 534,000

 When it comes to US land based assets the Permian and the DJ are the two biggest drivers of production for OXY. They are also the 4th largest producer of Gulf.

5 - EOG Resources | bbl/d: 475,200

EOG Resources - They operate in several basins in the US. Some notable ones include the Williston, Powder River, DJ, Anadarko, Permian, and Eagleford. They drill... a lot. They also returned 5.1 bn to shareholders in 2022. 475,200 bbl/d is 4 olympic sized swimming pools of crude a day.

6 - British Petroleum | bbl/d: 335,000

Although these guys aren't US based, they sure take advantage of US assets. BP is very heavy in the US Gulf of Mexico. They have other fields throughout the US, but are not as heavy hitters in the Permian as the companies listed above.

7 - Devon Energy | bbl/d: 315,000

They are focused in 5 core areas. Williston ND, Power River WY, Anadarko OK, Delaware TX/NM, and Eagleford Texas. The Delaware Basin is where Devon spends 60% of its resources.
