據7月13日路透社報道，根據美國能源信息署(EIA)的月度鉆井產能報告，7個主要頁巖地層8月份的原油產量預計將增加4.2萬桶/日，至790.7萬桶/日，要知道，7月份的產量增幅為2.8萬桶/日。
推動這一預測增長的主要支撐因素是二疊紀盆地(Permian Basin)的產量增長。8月，二疊紀盆地的原油產量預計將增加5.3萬桶/日，抵消了北達科他州巴肯(Bakken)地層預計產量下降的影響。
EIA稱，主要頁巖盆地的天然氣產量預計將連續第二個月增加。
8月份天然氣總產量將增加不到1億立方英尺/日，達到855億立方英尺/日。相比之下，2019年12月的月度最高紀錄為869億立方英尺/日。
最大的頁巖氣盆地阿巴拉契亞，其8月份的天然氣產量預計將下降不到1億桶/日，至344億立方英尺/日。相比之下，2020年12月創下了356億立方英尺/日的月度紀錄。
根據EIA 2007年的數據，德克薩斯州、路易斯安那州和阿肯色州的Haynesville地區8月份的天然氣產量預計將增加超過1億立方英尺/日，達到創紀錄的135億立方英尺/日。
EIA表示，今年6月，生產商在最大的頁巖盆地鉆探了549口井，完成了818口井的鉆探。這使得已鉆但未完工(DUC)井的數量減少了269口，至6252口，為2018年6月以來新低。

U.S. shale oil output expected to rise 42,000 bpd in August to 7.907 million bpd -EIA
Crude output from seven major shale formations is expected to rise by 42,000 bpd in August, to 7.907 million bpd, compared with a 28,000 bpd rise in July, according to the Energy Information Administration's (EIA) monthly drilling productivity report.
The forecast is led by growing production in the largest formation, the Permian Basin, where crude output is estimated to rise 53,000 bpd in the month, offsetting falling output expected from the Bakken formation of North Dakota.
Natural gas production from the major shale basins was expected to increase for a second month in a row, EIA said.
Total gas output will increase less than 0.1 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) to 85.5 bcfd in August. That compares with a monthly record high of 86.9 bcfd in December 2019.
Gas output in Appalachia, the biggest shale gas basin, was expected to decrease less than 0.1 bcfd to 34.4 bcfd in August. That compares with a monthly record of 35.6 bcfd in December 2020.
Gas output in the Haynesville in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas was expected to increase over 0.1 bcfd to a record 13.5 bcfd in August, according to EIA data going back to 2007.
EIA said producers drilled 549 wells and completed 818 in the biggest shale basins in June. That left total drilled but uncompleted (DUC) wells down 269 to 6,252, their lowest since June 2018.
