Everus Rig Count @ 519 (+6); Marcellus @ 33 (+0), Utica @ 12 (+0)

The Enverus U.S. rig count continues to climb (a good sign). For the week ending March 31, the U.S. rig count climbed another 6 active rigs to 519. The oil-focused Permian Basin and Eagle Ford Shale each added four new rigs. The Marcellus stayed even at 33 active rigs, and the Ohio Utica stayed even at 12 active rigs (although the Marcellus dry gas lost a rig and Marcellus wet picked up a rig). The other major shale gas play, the Haynesville, picked up a rig and now operates 48 active rigs.
