  • EIA forecasts Alaska crude oil production will grow in 2026 for the first time since 2017
    on March 19, 2025 at 2:00 pm

    In our March 2025 Short-Term Energy Outlook, we forecast crude oil production in Alaska will increase by 16,000 barrels per day (b/d) in 2026 to 438,000 b/d after remaining relatively flat in 2025. Two new oil developments in Alaska–the Nuna and Pikka projects–are expected to boost crude oil production in the state after decades of decline. If realized, this annual production increase will be the first since 2017 and the largest since 2002.
