Key National Results
Wood Mackenzie’s analysis found that U.S. policies which encourage the development of new and existingresources could, by 2030, increase domestic oil and natural gas production by over 10 million boed,support an additional 1.4 million jobs, and raise over $800 billion of cumulative additional governmentrevenue. Whereas increasing regulatory burdens on the oil and gas upstream sector will result in higherdeveloment costs which can otentiall hinder the rowth of roduction tax revenues and ob creation. Continuing the current path of policies which slow down the issuance of leases and drilling permits,increase the cost of hydraulic fracturing through duplicative water or air quality regulations, or delay theconstruction of oil sands export pipelines such as Keystone XL, will have a detrimental effect onroductionobsandovernmentrevenues.

Total Potential Production impact:
By 2015, an additional 1.27 million boed could be produced, risingto 10.4 million boed by 2030. Over the period 2012 to 2030, it isestimated an additional cumulative 35.4 billion boe of reserves
