During climb out through 14;000 ft. we noticed an amber oil pressure low indication on #2 engine. I was the PF(Pilot Flying) so I took the radios while the Captain ran the Engine Low Oil Pressure checklist which then directed him to the Engine Failure or Shutdown Checklist. The oil pressure dropped rapidly to approximately 3 PSI and the oil quantity dropped to 0. The checklist directed us to shutdown the #2 engine. We [requested priority handling] and coordinated with ATC for vectors to air return via the ILS XXL to ZZZ. We completed all appropriate checklists and coordinated with Dispatch; the flight attendants; and gave a reassuring PA to the passengers. The approach and landing were uneventful. After exiting the runway we were met by emergency vehicles and inspected. No damage or abnormalities were noted so we returned to gate X. We elected to shutdown and get towed to the gate. Two maintenance ELB (Electronic Log Book) entries were made and the Captain coordinated with Dispatch and the Chief Pilot via phone.
