Abstract: The article focuses on the development and measurement of crude oil and natural gas drilling activity in the United States, as reported by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). It presents detailed data on rotary rigs in operation by location, type, and trajectory from 1949 through early 2026, including distinctions between crude oil, natural gas, and well service rigs. The report also covers the number of wells drilled and footage drilled by well type (crude oil, natural gas, dry) and trajectory (horizontal, directional, vertical), with data revisions based on reports from sources such as Baker Hughes, the American Petroleum Institute, and S&P Global. The EIA uses modeling techniques to estimate recent drilling activity due to reporting lags, applying specific conditions to reconcile reported and modeled data. [Extracted from the article]
