The United States is on track to produce more crude oil and liquids than Russia and Saudi Arabia combined by 2025, according to a report from the independent energy research and consulting firm Rystad Energy.

Liquids output is expected to rise above 24 million barrels per day over the next six years, assuming U.S. crude prices average $58 a barrel during the period, Rystad said in the Jan. 24 report.
