Baker Hughes U.S. Rig Count Down Again @ 542; Pennsylvania Adds 1
Last week, the Baker Hughes U.S. rig count continued its downward trend, losing two rigs to end at 542 active rigs nationwide. The count has been down 12 of the last 13 weeks, with the only slight increase happening two weeks ago. However, there was good news in our region. The Marcellus/Utica count increased by one to a combined 36 active rigs. The reason for the bump up was that Pennsylvania added a Marcellus rig last week. PA now runs 18 active rigs. OH remains at 11 rigs. And WV remains at 7 rigs.To view this content, log into your member account. (Not a member? Join Today!)
