Global oil atlas
World Oil Production Map
This map compares national petroleum liquids production across the PetroEyes country-year dataset. Use it to see where global supply is concentrated, then compare output against domestic consumption to understand which producers have export capacity and which producers still rely on imported crude grades or refined products.
Global Oil Map
Top 20 oil producing countries (2025)
The table gives search engines and readers the same core data visible on the interactive map: petroleum liquids production and consumption in million barrels per day, each country's share of world production, and the supply balance (production minus consumption). Country names link to the full PetroEyes country profiles.

Figures are 2025 petroleum liquids from the PetroEyes country-year dataset (world production 104.65 mb/d). Production counts crude oil, condensate, natural gas liquids, and other liquids as compiled in the dataset; it is a supply comparison, not a field-level reserve estimate. Source notes and dataset definitions are on the methodology page.
Largest supply surpluses
Supply balance is production minus consumption. It is a clearer country-map measure than raw exports minus imports because official trade categories can include crude, products, re-exports, stock movements, and refinery effects.
Global Oil Supply Deficit & Market Balance Outlook
Evaluating global petroleum liquids balance requires analyzing structural supply constraints against seasonal consumption trends. When daily refinery intake and global demand outpace crude and NGL production, commercial inventories are drawn down, signaling a market supply deficit.
Supply Restraint Drivers
- OPEC+ voluntary production quota management and alliance discipline
- Maturing tier-1 acreage in key US shale basins (Permian, Eagle Ford)
- Upstream capital discipline prioritizing free cash flow over rapid volume growth
- Long lead-time requirements for offshore deepwater project commissioning
Demand & Inventory Triggers
- Non-OECD petrochemical feedstock expansion and transport fuel demand
- Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) replenishment programs in consuming nations
- Refinery run rates adjusting to middle distillate and jet fuel crack spreads
- Geopolitical transit friction across key maritime crude choke points
How PetroEyes interprets production
Production is useful for understanding supply concentration, geopolitical exposure, and the countries most able to affect global balances. It should not be read as a complete export forecast by itself. Refinery demand, domestic subsidies, pipeline access, crude quality, storage, sanctions, and seasonal maintenance can all change how much production reaches the global market.
