Shale Driving Natural Gas Production to Record Highs, EIA Says
Domestic natural gas production will be at an all-time high this year and is expected to break that record for a third consecutive year in 2013, thanks in large part to the nation’s booming shale plays, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said in its Short Term Energy Outlook for September.
Carrizo Hits Record Production, Nears Niobrara JV
Carrizo Oil & Gas Inc. beat its guidance and achieved record production and revenue during the second quarter of 2012, thanks in large part to new liquids production in the Eagle Ford Shale and a flatter-than-expected decline in natural gas production from new wells in the Marcellus Shale.
Rosetta Resources: Back at the (Gates) Ranch, There’s Profit
Houston-based Rosetta Resources Inc. grew net income and revenues during the second quarter, thanks to more production that was more heavily weighted to liquids. Where one goes to get that in Texas — as everyone knows — is the Eagle Ford Shale. As it continues to develop its core Gates Ranch area there, Rosetta is stepping out as well.
Carrizo Hits Record Production and Revenue in 2Q, Nears Niobrara JV
Carrizo Oil & Gas Inc. beat its guidance and achieved record production and revenue during the second quarter of 2012, thanks in large part to new oil production from longer laterals drilled in the Eagle Ford Shale and a flatter-than-expected decline in natural gas production with new wells brought online in the Marcellus Shale.
