- OPEC 10 production (excl. Iran, Venezuela, Libya). OPEC 10’s production decreased slightly, by 0.1 MMb/d m-o-m to 26.9 MMb/d. OPEC’s production has declined by 1.97 MMb/d since January 2023 as it continues to curtail supply, with added uncertainty due to geopolitical tension in Iran.
- Non-OPEC production (excl. US shale). Non-OPEC production decreased by 0.9 MMb/d m-o-m to 60.1 MMb/d. The decline was primarily driven by US non-shale onshore production, which witnessed a m-o-m decline of 0.5 MMb/d due to extreme cold weather disruptions.
- US shale oil production. US shale oil production declined sharply by 0.5 MMb/d m-o-m in January to 9.3 MMb/d as a result of shut-downs due to cold weather across central US.
