# Strong Americas Oil Growth in 2026 Falls Short of Mideast Loss

> Oil and liquids production growth in the Americas is estimated at 1.64 million barrels per day in 2026, led by gains in Brazil and the United States. The increase is expected to offset less than one-quarter of the Middle East production losses linked to the US-Iran war; the UAE also set a new production record in October.

## Why it matters

New Americas supply only partly replaces the larger Middle East losses, leaving global crude availability tighter and supporting prices. Further growth from the UAE could temper that support if it continues.
