The Marcellus/Utica is getting its collective butt kicked by both the Haynesville Shale and Permian Basin with respect to adding new quantities of natural gas production, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) and its latest Drilling Productivity Report (DPR). Between October and November, EIA predicts the M-U will add another 89 MMcf/d (million cubic feet per day) of new production. However, the Permian will add 127 MMcf/d next month, and the Haynesville will add a big 200 MMcf/d.
