Trump Admin Wildly Surpasses Biden Energy Record In Matter of Months

According to federal energy officials, domestic oil production has reached record levels, and natural gas output has increased significantly, supporting the administration’s goal of what it calls “energy dominance.” Lower energy costs for consumers and expanded liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports were cited as key achievements.

U.S. crude oil production reached a record high of 13.6 million barrels per day in 2025, according to the White House, making it the highest output of any country in the world. In comparison, it took the Biden administration four years for production to increase from 11.3 million to 13.2 million barrels per day— a figure that “Trump surpassed in months,” according to the White House.
