Range Convinced Extra 2.5 Bcf/d Needed for AI Data Ctrs by 2030

Range Resources issued its third quarter 2025 update on Wednesday. Range's production averaged 2.23 Bcfe/d in 3Q, approximately 69% natural gas. Range used two rigs and drilled ~262,000 lateral feet across 16 wells, while turning to sales ~228,000 lateral feet across 15 wells. 3Q25 drilling and completion expenditures were $165 million. In addition to D&C spending, Range spent approximately $16 million on acreage and $9 million on infrastructure, pneumatic devices, and other investments. CEO Dennis Degner stated during the earnings call that the company remains encouraged by the early activity in Pennsylvania, particularly with gas-fired power generation for data center projects. Degner said he's convinced more than ever that data centers will create another 2.5 Bcf/d (billion cubic feet per day) of demand for Marcellus/Utica drillers like Range.
