In 2019, the United States produced nearly 34 trillion cubic feet of dry natural gas and gas consumption increased to 31 trillion cubic feet, Kallanish Energy has learned.
Both totals are records, according to a new report from the Energy Information Administration.
In 2019, gross U.S. withdrawals of natural gas and other compounds extracted at the wellhead totaled nearly 41 Tcf, and most came from shale natural gas wells, it said.
Marketed natural gas production which excludes natural gas used to repressure wells, vented and flared gas and nonhydrocarbon gases totaled more than 36 Tcf.
U.S. marketed natural gas was further processed into about 34 Tcf of dry natural gas and about 3 Tcf of natural gas liquids such as ethane and propane.
As production has increased, so, too, have exports of natural gas.
In 2017, the exports surpassed natural gas imports for the first time since 1957.
In 2019, the U.S. exported a record of nearly 5 Tcf of natural gas, mostly by pipeline to Mexico or Canada, or shipped overseas as liquefied natural gas (LNG).
In 2019, natural gas imports were less than 3 Tcf, the lowest level since 2015.
Most U.S. natural gas imports originate in Canada.
In 2019, more than two-thirds of the dry natural gas produced in the U.S. was used by the electric power and industrial sectors, the EA said.
Today, U.S. natural gas consumption is nearly equally split among the electric power sector (36%), the industrial sector (33%), and the residential, commercial, and transportations sectors (31% combined).
