Slight Reversal – U.S. Rig Count Gains 3 @ 622, M-U Gains 1 @ 39

The U.S. rig count actually rose last week, adding a piddly four rigs to 622 active rigs (regaining the four it lost the week before). We remain near the lowest point since February 2022. The count in the Marcellus/Utica, after falling by one three weeks ago and holding steady two weeks ago, gained one rig (in Pennsylvania) and now stands at 39 active rigs. The national rig count is down 147, or 19%, below this time last year. We'd classify it as limping along, but we're happy to see this slight reversal.
