Lower 48 States natural gas production increased 0.2 percent in November. Other States production increased 2.1 percent, largely because of increases in the Fayetteville shale. Louisiana production was up for the 11th consecutive month (5.0 percent), because of drilling in the Haynesville shale. Wyoming production was up for the second month (3.5 percent), partly because of higher natural gas prices. The Gulf of Mexico declined 5.1 percent, because of Tropical Storm Ida, maintenance, and repairs.

Note: Data presented in the table are monthly natural gas gross withdrawals estimated from data collected on the EIA-914 survey for 2009. In 2008 data are from the EIA Natural Gas Annual. Grosswithdrawals are converted to marketed natural gas production which is reported on the EIA website in the Natural Gas Navigator, and in the Natural Gas Monthly and Annual reports. Marketed production is calculated by subtracting gas used for repressuring, quantities vented and flared, and nonhydrocarbon gases removed in treating or processing operations from gross withdrawals.
