U.S. Rig Count Unchanged for Third Consecutive Week
U.S. energy firms held the oil and gas rig count steady at 585 for a...
U.S. energy firms held the oil and gas rig count steady at 585 for a third consecutive week, according to Baker Hughes' data as of November 8. This keeps the total count down 31 rigs, or 5%, from the same time last year. Oil rigs remained at 479, while gas rigs held at 102.

The U.S. rig count declined 20% in 2023 amid falling energy prices, inflation-related costs, and a focus on debt reduction over production growth. Crude futures are down 2% year-to-date, while gas futures are up 6% after significant declines last year. Despite this, U.S. crude output is expected to grow from a record 12.9 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2023 to 13.2 million bpd in 2024 and 13.5 million bpd in 2025, per the EIA. Meanwhile, gas output is projected to dip to 103.5 billion cubic feet per day in 2024 from 2023’s record high of 103.8 bcfd.

Rafael weakened into a tropical storm overnight, with sustained winds of 50 mph on a westerly path away from Florida and is expected to continue to steadily weaken over the next few days, according to the latest update from the National Hurricane Center.

After that, Rafael is expected to meander over the central Gulf of Mexico Sunday into Monday, then turn toward the south or south-southwest by Monday night.

According to the NHC, heavy rainfall indirectly associated with the moisture from Rafael is expected to lead to 3 to 6 inches of rain, with local amounts to 10 inches, across portions of the Upper Texas Coast into Southwest and Central Louisiana through Sunday morning, potentially leading to significant flash flooding.
