/longtermforecast#

This endpoint returns long-term production forecasts use public producer guidance with an adjustment for private producer activity of the lower 48 and its subregions for the next 12 months.

Warning

A throttling mechanism with a rate limit of 300 requests per minute has been implemented for this endpoint. This is temporary and may be adjusted in the future.

Usage#

Python#

long_term_forecast(end_date=None, region=[None], start_date=None, sub_region=[None])#

Returns a long term production forecast for the next 12 months for the lower 48. The forecast is provided at a monthly granularity.

Object returned is a pandas DataFrame.

⮞ Setup the client.

from synmax.hyperion import HyperionApiClient, ApiPayload
access_token = 'your access token goes here'
client = HyperionApiClient(access_token=access_token)

For a more detailed guide on setting up the Hyperion client, please see the Quickstart page.

⮞ Use parameters to narrow down your request.

payload = ApiPayload(start_date='2021-05-01', end_date='2022-06-25', sub_region=['S LA', 'West - TX'])

Tip

Narrow down your request to receive a faster response. Using no parameters will fetch the entire dataset which may take a very long time.

⮞ Call the function.

result_df = client.long_term_forecast(payload)

⮞ Print the results or save them for later.

# Print the entire response as a string.
print(result_df.to_string())

# Create a CSV file from the output.
result_df.to_csv('output.csv')

# Print the number of items per column.
print(result_df.count())

For more information on outputting to different formats, please see the pandas DataFrame documentation.
