Enverus Rig Count @ 543 (-12); Marcellus @ 33 (-2), Utica @ 11 (-1)
After record gains since the beginning of the year, the Enverus U.S. rig count slid backwards over the past week, for the week ending May 19. The national rig count fell by 12, while the Marcellus lost two rigs (one each in the wet and dry gas regions), and the Utica lost one rig. The combined M-U now has 44 active rigs. The Haynesville in Louisiana (and East Texas), the main competitor to the M-U, lost one rig and now operates 50 active rigs.
