PA Loses 2 Rigs from Marcellus, Combined M-U Lowest Since Nov. 2025

March 30, 2026March 30, 2026

Last week was not a good week for the national rig count nor the count in the Marcellus/Utica. The national count dropped by 9 rigs to 543, while Pennsylvania lost 2 rigs and now operates 18, a level it hasn't seen since January of this year. Both Ohio and West Virginia maintained the same counts last week at 11 and 8, respectively. The combined M-U count was 37 rigs last week, the lowest number since the Nov. 18, 2025, rig count report. Yuck.
