The International Energy Agency has reported in its monthly report that in March the US outstripped Saudi Arabia in terms of oil production, which ranked second after Russia in this indicator. According to the IEA, in 2018, the United States will make the largest contribution to the growth of oil production among non-OPEC countries - 1.5 million barrels per day from 1 million 800 thousand barrels per day. It is noted that the increase in production by Canada, Brazil and Kazakhstan will be offset by a fall in China and Mexico. According to the IEA, oil production in the United States in March was 9 million 960 thousand barrels per day, in Saudi Arabia - 9 million 920 thousand barrels per day, in Russia - 11 million 350 thousand barrels per day.
