From Forbes:
Thanks to a Rocky Mountain shale party, Colorado is an increasingly
important oil and gas producer.
Over the past decade, Colorado's oil
production has surged 365% to 380,000 b/d and natural gas production is
up 30% to ~5 Bcf/d.
The future shines bright: "Western
Colorado's Mancos Shale formation holds an estimated 66.3 Tcf of
natural gas, way up from the 1.6 Tcf estimate in its 2003 appraisal.
puts the Mancos basin 2nd only to the Marcellus Shale in terms of the
largest gas reserves in the U.S."
From the NDIC Director's Cut:
July, 2018, data.
- Natural gas: 2,400,174 MCF/day = 399,962 boepd
The Bakken is an "oil play," not a natural gas play. In the Bakken, natural gas is a hassle, a danger, and a by-product.
