Top 10 Oil Producers in the World in 2022, the U.S. Tops the List

Recently BP released its Statistical Review of World Energy 2022. The Review gives a comprehensive picture of the supply and demand for significant energy sources on a country-level basis.
Oil Demand Bounces Back
For 2020, the Review reported the biggest decline in oil1 consumption on record. Following nine consecutive years of increment, the Covid-19 pandemic made global consumption of crude oil decline by over 9% in 2020. Last year oil consumption bounced back by climbing 6% — the quickest ascend beginning around 1976. In any case, consumption stays 3.7% below the record level of 2019.
The United States stays the world’s top oil buyer, averaging 18.7 million BPD in 2021. This obvious an increment of 8.7% from 2020 (reflected by “Change” in the table below). This was the sharpest increment for any country in the Top 10, however, it is as yet 9% below the all-time high U.S. oil consumption level of 2005 (20.5 million BPD).
China was the second-highest customer at 15.4 million BPD. Over the past decade, U.S. oil consumption has expanded by an average every year rate of 0.4%, while China’s average every year increment was in excess of 10 times higher at 4.8%.
Germany was notably the main country in the Top 10 that saw a demand decrease in 2021.

The U.S. Remains Oil Production Champion
Despite the continuous effect the pandemic has had on U.S. oil creation, the U.S. stayed the world’s top oil producer in 2021 at 11.2 million BPD.2 Russia and Saudi Arabia held their positions at #2 and #3.
Despite the fact that oil organizations all over the world started to increment creation during 2021, average creation for the year fell for 6 of the Top 10 countries. This was a significant driver behind the global surge of oil costs in 2021.
Note that these creation numbers are for crude oil and lease condensate. The U.S. additionally leads all countries in the development of natural gas liquids (NGLs), which somewhat end up in the oil products production chain. On the off chance that NGLs are incorporated, the U.S. has a much bigger lead over Russia and Saudi Arabia.
Footnotes
- BP’s meaning of oil consumption rejects biofuels while derivatives of coal and natural gas are incorporated.
- Incorporates crude oil, shale/tight oil, oil sands, lease condensate, or gas condensates that require further refining. Excludes liquid fuels from different sources like biomass and synthetic derivatives of coal and natural gas.
