SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This information collection request
contains: (1) OMB No.: 1905-0205;
(2) Information Collection Request Title: Monthly Crude Oil and
Lease Condensate, and Natural Gas Production Report;
(3) Type of Request: Thee-year extension with changes; revision of
the currently approved Form EIA-914.
(4) Purpose: Form EIA-914 Monthly Crude Oil and Lease Condensate,
and Natural Gas Production Report collects monthly data on natural gas
production, and crude oil and lease condensate production, and crude
oil and lease condensate sales by API gravity category in 22 state/
areas (Alabama, Arkansas, California (including State Offshore),
Colorado, Federal Offshore Gulf of Mexico, Federal Offshore Pacific,
Kansas, Louisiana (including State Offshore), Michigan, Mississippi
(including State Offshore), Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio,
Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas (including State Offshore), Utah,
Virginia, West Virginia, Wyoming, and Other States (defined as all
remaining states, except Alaska)). The data appear in the Monthly Crude
Oil and Lease Condensate, and Natural Gas Production Report on EIA's
website and in the EIA publications; Monthly Energy Review, Petroleum
Supply Annual volumes, Petroleum Supply Monthly, Natural Gas Annual,
and Natural Gas Monthly.
(4a) Changes to Information Collection: EIA proposes to make the
following changes to Form EIA-914, Monthly Crude Oil and Lease
Condensate, and Natural Gas Production Report:
<bullet> Section 4 of Form EIA-914, Crude Oil and Lease Condensate
Run Ticket Volumes (Sales) by API Gravity, which collected density data
for crude oil and lease condensate production for selected States would
be discontinued and deleted from Form EIA-914.
(5) Annual Estimated Number of Respondents: 400.
(6) Annual Estimated Number of Total Responses: 4,800.
(7) Annual Estimated Number of Burden Hours: 14,400.
(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Cost Burden:
$1,257,984 (14,400 burden hours times $87.36). EIA estimates that
respondents will have no additional costs associated with the surveys
other than the burden hours and that the information is maintained
during the normal course of business.
Comments are invited on whether or not: (a) The proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of agency
functions, including whether the information will have a practical
utility; (b) EIA's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions
used, is accurate; (c) EIA can improve the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information it will collect; and (d) EIA can minimize
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, such as
automated collection techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Statutory Authority: 15 U.S.C. 772(b) and 42 U.S.C. 7101 et seq.
Signed in Washington, DC, on May 24, 2023.
