U.S. Natural Gas Price and Surplus

Surplus in natural gas refers to how much the current inventory is above or below the 5-year average. A positive surplus means higher-than-average storage, while a negative surplus indicates lower-than-average levels.

US Supply (Line) and Demand (Bar)

This chart illustrates dry natural gas supply and demand. Heating season typically drives demand above supply levels.

Dry Production (Dry Natural Gas)

This refers to the volume of natural gas that remains after natural gas liquids (NGLs), water, and other impurities are removed.

Dry gas is the portion that is actually available for commercial use and sale.

US Natural Gas Price and EOS

EOS (End of Season) refers to the amount of natural gas remaining in storage at the end of the winter heating season, typically in late March. It is used to assess how much gas was withdrawn during winter and to evaluate the supply situation going into the injection season.

U.S. Daily Gross Natural Gas Withdrawals from Gas Wells (EIA)

Gross Withdrawals (Natural Gas Production)

This is the total volume of natural gas extracted from wells each day, including all gas before processing.

It includes gas that is later re-injected, flared, vented, or removed as non-hydrocarbon gases.

Natural Gas

Rotary Rig Count

Rotary Rig Count refers to the number of active drilling rigs currently operating to explore or develop oil and natural gas.

It is a key indicator of drilling activity and is often used to gauge future production potential.

Total is based on Oil + Gas, excluding Baker Hughes’ Miscellaneous category.
