Both the US and Canada are rolling along in record territory for their upstream activities, while Brazilian crude production is getting pluckier after a lackluster 2024. NGL production in the Americas has eclipsed 8 million b/d and is believed to have posted a new record in February. The year has started out with gusto for non-Opec-plus, but with all the volatility stemming from an incipient tariff war, the sustainability of this output level is questionable.
