Crude oil output fell to 1.74 million barrels per day (bpd) in January from 1.85 million bpd in December, lagging a forecast of 1.78 million bpd, the NPD said.

Natural gas production in January also fell to 10.6 billion cubic meters (bcm) from 11 bcm a month ago, but was above an official forecast of 9.9 bcm, it added.
