Global natural gas production reached a record high of ************* cubic meters in 2024, continuing a general upward trend that has persisted for decades. The increase in production aligns with rising global natural gas demand, which is projected to surpass ************ cubic meters by 2050, driven largely by consumption in the Asia Pacific region. Liquefied natural gas trade expands As natural gas production rises, so does the global trade in liquefied natural gas (LNG). In 2023, LNG trade volume reached *********** cubic meters, with the United States emerging as the world's largest LNG exporter. The growth in LNG trade is supported by increasing liquefaction capacity, which reached ************* metric tons in 2023, a ** percent increase since 2010, although growth has slowed in recent years. United States leads in production and exports The United States has solidified its position as the world's leading natural gas producer and exporter. In 2023, U.S. production reached approximately ************ cubic meters, accounting for roughly ********** of global production. It significantly outpaces Russia, the second-largest producer. U.S. production dominance extends to exports, with the U.S. shipping **** billion cubic meters via pipelines and ************* cubic meters as LNG in 2023.

The Appalachia basin is by far the most productive natural gas basin in the United States. Monthly gas production in the Appalachia region amounted to some 36.28 billion cubic feet per day in June 2025. It is forecast that this figure will increase to 36.74 million cubic feet by December 2025. The Appalachia basin is situated across the states of New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia. The Permian basin is the second most productive natural gas basin, with production at 27.33 million cubic feet per day in June 2025.

natural gas production (2010-2020)

County-level data from oil and/or natural gas producing States—for onshore production in the lower 48 States only—are compiled on a State-by-State basis. Most States have production statistics available by county, field, or well, and these data were compiled at the county level to create a database of county-level production, annually for 2000 through 2011. Raw data for natural gas is for gross withdrawals, and oil data almost always include natural gas liquids. Note that State-provided natural gas withdrawals were not available for Illinois or Indiana; those estimates were produced using geocoded wells and State total production reported by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Energy Information Agency. In the data file, counties with increases or decreases in excess of $20 million in oil and/or natural gas production during 2000-11 are also identified. See the Documentation for more details. Currently, an ERS update to this data product is not planned.

The Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries (MEEI) has published valuable information showing the annual statistics on Natural Gas Production for 1908 - 2018 and Crude Oil and Condensate Production for 1908 - 2018.

Production of natural gas in the United States has been increasing for the past decade and peaked at nearly 1033 billion cubic meters in 2023 and 2024. An increase in production corresponded with rising demand for natural gas in the United States, particularly after the 2008 Recession.    Natural gas becomes competitive Since the early 2000s, the price of coal had been going up, and increased more rapidly following the 2008 Recession, which affected the cost of crude oil to an even greater degree. When the price of crude oil peaked shortly after the financial crisis, consumption of petroleum decreased in the next year. Simultaneously, the cost of natural gas dramatically decreased, making it a stronger competitor with coal and petroleum. The rise of fracking Low-interest rates during the Recession led to new investments in new techniques to obtain natural gas, such as horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, that may be controversial due to health and environmental impacts. Often obtained through fracking, shale gas has become a common form of natural gas, and shale gas production in the United States has increased dramatically since the financial crisis.

This data release contains several datasets that provide an overview of oil and gas well history and production of the United States, from 1817 to September 1, 2022. Well history data is aggregated into 1-mile and 10-mile squares indicating the total number of wells and counts of wells classified as oil, gas, dry, injection, hydraulically fractured, and/or horizontal wells. Well history is also separated into layers binned on 1-year increments from a well's spud date (date drilling commenced). Production data is aggregated in 2-mile and 10-mile squares that sum the total production of oil, gas, and water volumes. Production data is also separated into layers binned on 1-year increments to reflect the year of production. These aggregations are compiled from data from IHS Markit, which is a proprietary, commercial database. No proprietary data is contained in this release. This data release was updated May 2023 to reflect an offset of 1 year on the original release.
