EIA predicts U.S. gas production will grow by nearly 1 Bcf/d in one month EnerCom’s Effective Rig Count rose sharply last month, as improving efficiencies combined with a jump in active rigs. The Effective Rig Count now stands at 2,670, meaning it would take 2,670 rigs from January 2014 to yield the same production as current operations are achieving. Current

Rigs, efficiency both up EnerCom has released the latest Effective Rig Count, examining the state of drilling activity in major shale basins. The Effective Rig Count rose once again in December, growing from 2,345 to 2,429. Increasing rig count combined with heightening efficiency to produce the largest single-month increase in EERC since July. Operations in major shale basins are now
Permian operators activate 3 more rigs Drilling activity increased in the U.S. this week, more than reversing the decline seen over the past two weeks according to Baker Hughes’ Rig Count. A total of fifteen rigs came online this week, the largest single-week increase since last May. Thirteen of these rigs are land-based, while two are offshore. There are now
Total rig count down by one U.S. drilling activity decreased slightly this week, according to the latest edition of Baker Hughes Rig Count. One rig came offline in the week, bringing the total number of rigs active in the country down to 930. This rig was an offshore platform, meaning there are now 19 offshore rigs, 909 land rigs and
Activity concentrates in major basins Drilling activity increased slightly this week, as producers continue to react to the recent ascent of oil prices, according to Baker Hughes Weekly Rig Count. A total of two rigs came online this week, meaning there are now 931 rigs active in the U.S. One land-based and one inland waters rig came online in the
Wyoming sees largest increase Drilling activity increased this week, according to Baker Hughes’ Weekly Rig Count.
