(Tue, 21 Jan 2020) The <em>Drilling Productivity Report</em> (DPR) uses recent data on the total number of drilling rigs in operation along with estimates of drilling productivity and estimated changes in production from existing oil and natural gas wells to provide estimated changes in oil and natural gas production for seven key regions.

(Thu, 12 Dec 2019) In the <em>International Energy Outlook 2019</em>, India has the world’s fastest-growing population and the fastest-growing gross domestic product (GDP), which means long-term energy consumption projections are uncertain because of the rapid change magnified by the size of the economy.

(Tue, 03 Dec 2019) Last week (week ending November 22, 2019), the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) estimated weekly net withdrawals from working natural gas stocks at underground storage facilities in the Lower 48 states exceeded the five-year average for the first time in three weeks. The heating season traditionally begins on November 1. Total net withdrawals were just 28 billion cubic feet (Bcf) compared with the five-year average for the report week of 57 Bcf.

(Thu, 31 Oct 2019) Net injections into working gas storage in the South Central region totaled 44 billion cubic feet (Bcf) for the week ending October 25, 2019. Net injections into salt dome working gas storage facilities totaled 25 Bcf for the week, matching the previous record for the week ending October 14, 2016. This week’s combined salt and non-salt implied net flows into working gas in the South Central region is tied for the fifth largest weekly net injection on record in the history of the five-region weekly working gas estimates, dating to 2010.
