California has already seen a slight increase in their oil production rate. They are not longer declining.
And I would hardly call Alaska's a sharp decline. The past 12 months are less than 1% down from the previous 12 months.

Lets hope Senator Shannon can keep the EPA off their backs :D
Hamm thinks Okalahoma oil production could pass California and Alaska later next year.
Oklahoma is producing over 300k oil while Alaska and California are producing over 500k oil.
Looks like Oklahoma production is accelerating.
Obama is tearing his Gold Medal Flour grey hair out hearing about the coming oil boom. His fear is that he will run out of time to ruin this nation by 2017.
Oklahoma is OK :-)
“Oklahoma poised to become top oil producer, Continental Resources CEO Harold Hamm says”
I didn’t see anything in the article that said that. Maybe leapfrogging to number three, but not “top oil producer”
Well, I’m glad to be an Okie ... :-) ...
It would be nice if all this new oil production would translate into low gas prices, here in AMERICA.
Putin look out, we don’t need your oil.
Well, with California and Alaska oil output in sharp decline, the bar is easier to get over.
More important, why do this? Why not run up import totals to the stratosphere and save domestic reserves for a time after we burn up everyone else’s?
Oddly, I think the last numbers are something like 7 million bpd imported — and 400K of that is indeed Russian.
Oklahoma is only poised, it hasn’t gotten there yet Putin!
Nice work - good to see ADULTS run some of our states.
California shall soon fall into the dustbin of Socialist history.
I assumed the article “a” in front of “top oil” rather than “the”. It made sense that way.
Headlines are often misleading. They don’t really convey information, just an attempt to grap the reader and drag them in.

Without any major contribution from the Monterey, I think Oklahoma will pass California in a couple years. Probably Alaska as well without any significant drilling up there.

The interesting thing is how fast its happening. Looks like Oklahoma oil production will go up this year and next by nearly 100k barrels@ day.
