    On November 17, Rystad Energy's annual supply cost analysis showed that newly discovered oil production costs were lower
    in 2021 due to a significant drop in production costs in the upstream sector.
    The average break-even price for new oil projects is down about 8 percent from 2020 and 40 percent from 2014 to around
    $47/bbl.
    Of the newly discovered resources, the Middle East has the lowest cost of producing onshore resources, with an average break-even price of about $32 per barrel
    .
    Deepwater oil and gas remains one of the lowest-cost sources of new supply, with an average break-even price of $36 per barrel
    for deepwater oil.
    Shallow water resources have the greatest development potential, with reserves of about 126 billion barrels
    .
    Due to Russia's high taxes, the breakeven price of the country's onshore oil resources is second only to the most expensive oil sands
    .
