Total natural gas output in the big shale basins will increase 0.673 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) to a record 93.835 Bcf/d in September, the EIA forecast.
In the biggest shale gas basin in Appalachia, Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia, output will rise to 35.486 Bcf/d in September, the highest since hitting a record near 36.0 Bcf/d in December 2021.
Gas output in the Permian and the Haynesville in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas will also rise to record highs of 20.584 Bcf/d and 15.835 Bcf/d in September, respectively.
