EOG Resources Inc. and other drillers increased production in Texas’s Eagle Ford shale formation by 68 percent in December compared with the same period a year earlier.

The nine geographic fields that make up the majority of the play yielded 384,964 barrels of crude a day, according to preliminary data released yesterday by the Texas Railroad Commission, which oversees oil and gas drilling in the state. Preliminary daily output in November was 358,826 barrels, the commission reported last month.
