In 2021, Oklahoma was the nation's fifth-largest producer of marketed natural gas and the sixth-largest producer of crude oil. Overall, the state consumed only one-third of the energy it produced.
As of January 2021, Oklahoma had 5 operable petroleum refineries with a combined daily processing capacity of almost 522,000 barrels per calendar day. That is nearly 3% of the total U.S. crude oil refining capacity.
In 2021, wind supplied 41% of Oklahoma's total electricity net generation, surpassing natural gas' share for the first time. Wind accounted for 91% of the state's renewable generation, and the state ranked third in the nation in total electricity net generation from wind.
The benchmark price in the domestic spot market for the U.S. crude oil known as West Texas Intermediate (WTI) is set at Cushing, Oklahoma, home to about 15% of the nation’s commercial crude oil storage capacity.
Oklahoma is the nation’s fourth-largest consumer of natural gas on a per capita basis, and two-fifths of the natural gas consumed in the state is used for electric power generation.
