North Dakota’s oil output grew slower than expected in July, possibly as a result of new rules passed to reduce the amount of natural gas wasted at wells.
The state produced 1.11 million barrels of oil a day in July, up 1.7 percent from June, according to data from the state’s Department of Mineral Resources.
