Resumen de The Effect of Oil Prices on Field Production: Evidence from the Norwegian Continental Shelf
I use detailed field-level data on Norwegian offshore oil production and a semi-parametric additive model to control for the production profile of fields to estimate the effect of oil prices on production. I find no significant evidence of a concurrent reaction of field production to oil prices, though a modest lagged effect is found of the magnitude of approximately 2% to 7% for a $10 per barrel increase in the real price of oil.
