据普氏能源资讯2018年12月29日阿拉斯加州安克雷奇报道，由于各公司加大钻探力度来描绘新的阿拉斯加北斜坡以及国家石油储备的阿拉斯加州发现，阿拉斯加州的上游石油工业预计将在2019年迎来勘探和开发活动的激增。
由于阿拉斯加州北斜坡新发现的油田投产，阿拉斯加州石油产量预计在2019年和2020年将大幅增加。
根据美国国务院最新产量和收入的预测，预计阿拉斯加州北斜坡油田2019年的平均日产量将为52.98万桶，2020年为53.3万桶，均高于2018年1月至10月的50.5184万桶日产量。
这个预测包括美国第3大石油公司大陆菲利普斯公司（康菲公司）的GMT-1和北极国家野生动物保护区中的GMT-2两个新项目，不过GMT-2项目预计要到2021年才能投产。

Upstream oil exploration, development set to surge in Alaska
Alaska's upstream oil industry is expecting to see a surge in exploration and development in 2019 as companies drill to delineate new North Slope and National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska discoveries.
Alaska oil production is expected to increase in 2019 and 2020 thanks to new North Slope oil discoveries being brought North Slope production is projected to average 529,800 b/d in 2019 and 533,000 b/d in 2020, up from 505,184 b/d from January through October 2018, according to the most recent state Department of Revenue production and revenue forecast.
The forecast included two new approved projects -- ConocoPhillips' GMT-1 and GMT-2 in the NPR-A, although GMT-2 is not expected to begin producing until 2021.
