TRANSMITTAL Instructions (EIA-914)
CONFIDENTIALITY OF INFORMATION
The information you provide on Form EIA-914 will be used for statistical purposes only and is confidential by law. In accordance with the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act of 2002 and other applicable Federal laws, your responses will not be disclosed in identifiable form without your consent. Per the Federal Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015, Federal information systems are protected from malicious activities through cybersecurity screening of transmitted data. Every EIA employee, as well as every agent, is subject to a jail term, a fine, or both if he or she makes public ANY identifiable information you reported.
REQUIRED RESPONDENTS
This report is mandatory under Title 15 U.S.C. §772b. Failure to comply may result in criminal fines, civil penalties, and other sanctions as provided by law. Title 18 U.S.C §1001a makes it a criminal offense for any person knowingly and willingly to make to any Agency or Department of the United States any false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements as to any matter within its jurisdiction.
Form EIA-914 must be completed by selected operators of crude oil and natural gas wells in the United States that produce crude oil and natural gas, including federal and state offshore well operators. The operator is the person, company, or entity recognized by state or federal regulatory agencies as the operator. The operator should report 100% of the production for wells that they operate.
PURPOSE
The U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) Form EIA-914, Monthly Crude Oil and Lease Condensate, and Natural Gas Production Report, collects information on crude oil and natural gas production by operators in the United States. The data collected are used to estimate production of crude oil and natural gas in the United States. A summary of the data will appear in the following EIA publications: Natural Gas Monthly, Natural Gas Annual, Petroleum Supply Annual, Petroleum Supply Monthly, Monthly Energy Review, Annual Energy Review, Annual Energy Outlook, and the EIA website.
RESPONSE DUE DATE
The monthly reporting period is the calendar month. The data must be submitted on a monthly basis within 40 days after the reporting period. For example, data reported for June 2018 must be submitted no later than August 9, 2018. If the 40th day falls on a weekend or national holiday, the data must be submitted by the next business day.
EIA recognizes that some operators may not have the information readily available for each state. If your company does not maintain this information, estimates of the volumes may be provided. The estimating procedure and data supporting the estimates should result in a reasonably accurate estimate that may be subject to EIA review.
RESUBMISSIONS
Submit the entire revised EIA-914 form if either of the following conditions apply:
If the reported gross withdrawals (production) or lease production (sales) is revised by more than +/- 150 million cubic feet (MMcf), in either or both of the previous two months, for any state or area.
If the reported crude oil and lease condensate is revised by more than +/- 1,000 barrels (bbls), in either or both of the previous two months, for any state or area.
EIA reserves the right to request resubmissions as part of the data quality review process.

SECTION 2: MONTHLY NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION
The graphic below is an example that represents the well production stream. Use it as a guide to answer the questions below.
For the Monthly Natural Gas Production section, report:
100% of the production for wells that you or your company operates. This includes natural gas production associated with both oil wells and gas wells operated by the company within a state. This is also called the "Gross Operated" or "8/8ths Basis" production.
All production of natural gas in million cubic feet (MMcf) rounded to the nearest million (no decimals).
Natural gas volumes at a pressure of 14.73 psia and 60 degrees Fahrenheit. If your pressure base is different from 14.73 psia, convert your volumes to 14.73 psia. To do this, calculate a pressure adjustment factor for each state or federal offshore area. This adjustment factor is the value of your pressure base at 60 degrees Fahrenheit divided by 14.73. Multiply all your volumes by this factor and report the resulting values. For example, if your pressure base is 15.025 psia at 60 degrees Fahrenheit, your factor will be 15.025/14.73=1.02. Call the EIA-914 helpline if you need assistance at 1-855-342-4872.
Zero (0) if operated properties in any area produce no natural gas. If there are no operated properties in an area, leave the cell blank for that area.
For the reporting period only.
Reasonable estimates if necessary to meet the EIA-914 due date.
Note:
Include gas production form both oil wells and gas wells.
2.1. For each state or federal offshore area that your company produced natural gas in, what are the natural gas gross withdrawals (production) and the natural gas lease production (sales)? Definitions for Natural Gas Gross Withdrawals and Natural Gas Lease Production can be found on page 5. Include any comments in the textbox.
SECTION 3: MONTHLY CRUDE OIL AND LEASE CONDENSATE PRODUCTION
The graphic below is an example that represents the well production stream. Use it as a guide to answer the questions below.
For the Monthly Crude Oil and Lease Condensate Production section, report:
100% of the production for wells that you or your company operates. This includes all crude oil and lease condensate production associated with both oil wells and gas wells operated by the company within a state. This is also called the "Gross Operated" or "8/8ths Basis" production.
All production of crude oil and lease condensate (combined) rounded to the nearest barrel (no decimals).
Zero (0) if operated properties in any area produce no crude oil and lease condensate. If there are no operated properties in an area, leave the cell blank for that area.
For the reporting period only.
Reasonable estimates if necessary to meet the EIA-914 due date.

Include crude oil and lease condensate production form both oil wells and gas wells.
3.1. For each state or federal offshore area that your company produced crude oil and lease condensate in, what is the total volume of crude oil and lease condensate produced? Crude oil and lease condensate is defined as liquid hydrocarbons recovered from lease separators or field facilities. Include any comments in the textbox.
SECTION 4: CRUDE OIL & LEASE CONDENSATE RUN TICKET VOLUMES (SALES) BY API GRAVITY
For the Crude Oil & Lease Condensate Run Ticket Volumes (Sales) by API Gravity section, report:
The crude oil and lease condensate run ticket volumes by each API gravity category for each state where this operator has producing wells (see example below).
The volume of crude oil and lease condensate by API gravity category rounded to the nearest barrel (no decimals).
Crude oil and lease condensate volumes by API gravity categories at 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
For the reporting period only.
Reasonable estimates if necessary to meet the EIA-914 due date.
Do NOT Report:
The average API gravity for each state.
Note:
If the sales volumes are unavailable, please report the production volumes by API Gravity Category.
Leave cells blank for any state or region that the operator is not operating producing wells or has no sales.
Example:
For the reporting period, Operator X has 5,000 bbls sold in Arkansas as reported on their run tickets. Of those 5,000 bbls sold, 2,500 bbls have an API gravity of 34 and 2,500 bbls have an API gravity of 36.
For the reporting period, Operator X has another 3,000 bbls sold in California as reported on their run tickets. These 3,000 bbls are from one well in California. However, 1,500 of these bbls are reported on the run tickets as having an API gravity of 39. The remaining 1,500 bbls, from the same well, are reported as having an API gravity of 41.
Operator X has no sells in Ohio during the reporting period.
Operator X operates many wells in Texas. Operator X groups all of their Texas run tickets by these API gravity categories and then sums them for each API gravity category. For the reporting period, Operator X reports 40,000 bbls in the 20.1-25.0 API gravity category, 60,000 bbls in the 30.1-35.0 API gravity category, 30,000 bbls in the 35.1-40.0 API gravity category, 40,000 bbls in the 40.1-45.0 API gravity category, and 2,000 bbls in the greater than 55.0 API gravity category, for a total of 172,000 bbls in Texas.
This is how Operator X would complete the table.
4.1. Report the amount of crude oil and lease condensate by API Gravity Category for each state for your operated wells. For each state, group your run tickets, corrected to 60 degrees Fahrenheit, by API Gravity Category, and then sum them.
4.2. Do you have any comments for API Gravity data reported in 4.1? Include any comments in the textbox.
SECTION 5: OVERALL COMMENTS
Include any comments not already provided on the form in this textbox.
