The company produced an average of 195 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (MBOED) in 2023. ConocoPhillips Alaska holds major ownership interests in two of North America's largest legacy equivalent per day conventional oil fields, both located on Alaska's North Slope: Kuparuk, which the company operates, and Prudhoe Bay.

The Kuparuk Field is one of the largest onshore producing fields in the United States with more than 500 active producing wells. Kuparuk maintains an active development program. Field installations include three central production facilities that separate oil, natural gas and water, and a seawater treatment plant.

The Kuparuk satellites consist of the Meltwater, Tabasco, Tarn, West Sak, Moraine and Coyote fields. All satellite field production is processed through the Kuparuk production facilities. The Nuna project, which targets the Moraine reservoir, was sanctioned in 2023. The project will add ~29 development wells with on-pad infrastructure and pipelines that tie back to the existing Kuparuk River Unit processing facilities. Project construction activities began in 2023 and will continue through 2024. Drilling is anticipated to begin in mid-late 2024 with first oil anticipated by early 2025.
