May 5 (Reuters) - U.S. energy firms cut the most oil and natural gas rigs in a week since February, energy services firm Baker Hughes Co said in its closely followed report on Friday.
The total North American oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, fell by seven to 748 in the week to May 5.
Despite this week’s rig decline, Baker Hughes said the total count was still up 43 rigs, or 6%, over this time last year.
Oil rigs fell by three to 588 this week, in their biggest weekly decline since March. Gas rigs fell by four to 157, their biggest weekly decline since February.
The energy sector is off to a higher start, supported by strength in the crude complex and in the major equity futures. U.S. stock index futures pared back some gains after data showed U.S. jobs grew more than expected in April, and a fairly strong wage growth prompted investors to temper their expectations of interest rate cuts from the Federal Reserve. The U.S. economy added 253,000 jobs in April, beating expectations of 180,000 while the unemployment rate changed a little to 3.4% from 3.5% in the previous month.
WTI and Brent crude oil futures are trading higher but remain on track for a third-consecutive week of losses after markets registered dramatic drops on fears of a weakening U.S. economy and slowing Chinese demand.
