Haynesville Natural Gas Production Hits Record High In Late 2021 -- Rigzone -- April 16, 2022

Link here.

• record in 2H22; remained relatively strong in early 2022;
• third-largest shale gas-producing play in the US
• Marcellus: #1
• Haynesville: accounts for about 13% of all US dry natural gas production, February, 2022
• production, 2021, average:
• Marcellus: 32 billion cfpd
• Permian: 12.4 billion cfpd
• Haynesville; 12 billioni cfpd
• was 10 Bcfpd at start of 2021 (link here)
• pipeline takeaway capacity in Haynesville:

Pipeline takeaway capacity out of Haynesville has also increased in recent years. The additional capacity allows producers to reach industrial demand centers and liquefied natural gas terminals on the U.S. Gulf Coast.

The Enterprise Products Partners’ Gillis Lateral pipeline and the associated expansion of the Acadian Haynesville Extension entered into service in December 2021.

Before that project, Enbridge Midcoast Energy’s CJ Express pipeline entered service in April 2021. These projects added 1.3 Bcf/d of takeaway capacity in the Haynesville area, which is currently estimated to total 15.9 Bcf/d.

The three (Marcellus, Permian, Haynesville) account for 52% of all dry natural gas produced in the United States.
