- TX – 5.3%
- PA – 9.4%
- NM – 17.3%
- LA – 18.8%
- WV – 20%
- AK – 20.3%
Gas production in OK, OH, CO, ND, and WY also exceeded Gulf production.
NY gas production would also be far > than Gulf production, if companies were allowed to access natural gas in the Marcellus and Utica shale formations.
Total US gas withdrawals have doubled from 30 years ago when the Gulf accounted for >20% of the US total. Gulf production declined by 87% in that timeframe.
