Production
The 2026 Upstream Scale Guidelines establish a common workflow for field measurements, scale modeling, and risk assessment to support more consistent operational decisions.
The long-term outlook analysis says a potential shift toward new construction could push 2026 production 3% above 2025 levels.
Lower operating expenditures and a changing asset mix helped UKCS operators cut average production costs by 9% year over year, despite relatively flat production levels, according to the NSTA.
