The TOTAL U.S. oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, fell by one to 759 in the week to Sept. 9, down for the fifth week in six. Despite the decline, the total rig count was still up 256, or 51%, over this time last year.
U.S. oil rigsfell five to 591 this week, their lowest since mid-June, while gas rigsrose four to 166, their highest since August 2019.
With oil prices up about 16% so far this year after soaring 55% in 2021, the total rig count fell in August after rising for a record 24 months in a row.
