Energy Information Administration/Natural Gas Annual 2009 iii

Preface

The Natural Gas Annual 2009 (NGA) provides information 

on the supply and disposition of natural gas to a wide 

audience including Congress, Federal and State agencies, 

industry analysts, consumers, and educational institutions. 

The 2009 data are presented in a sequence that follows 

natural gas (including supplemental supplies) from its 

production to its end use. The Natural Gas Annual 2009

Summary Highlights provides an overview of the supply 

and disposition of natural gas in 2009 and is intended as a 

supplement to the NGA 2009. Tables summarizing natural 

gas supply and disposition from 2005 to 2009 for each State 

follow these tables. Annual historical data are shown at the 

national level. 

Data Sources: The data in the Natural Gas Annual 2009

are primarily taken from surveys conducted by the Energy 

Information Administration (EIA), U.S. Department of 

Energy (DOE). Most of the sector-level consumption data 

in the NGA are derived from responses to the mandatory 

Form EIA-176, “Annual Report of Natural and 

Supplemental Gas Supply and Disposition.” Production 

information for most States is based on submissions of the 

voluntary Form EIA-895, “Annual Quantity and Value of 

Natural Gas Production Report.” Other sources of 

production data include responses to the mandatory Form 

EIA-914, "Monthly Natural Gas Production Report," as 

well as additional data provided by appropriate State 

agencies (see Appendix A for more information). 

Form EIA-176 was submitted by respondents from an 

identified universe of operators of fields, wells, or natural 

gas processing plants who distribute gas to end users or 

transport gas across a State border; distribute natural gas; 

transport natural gas by pipeline; or operate underground 

natural gas storage facilities. Data collected on Form EIA176 are not proprietary. The voluntary Form EIA-895 was 

sent by the appropriate agencies of the gas-producing 

States, while Form EIA-914 was submitted by selected 

operators of oil and gas wells in the United States that 

produce natural gas, including Federal and State offshore 

well operators. Form EIA-914 data are confidential. 

Other EIA surveys that provided information for this 

report are:

 Form EIA-816, “Monthly Natural Gas Liquids 

Report,” and Form EIA-64A, “Annual Report of the 

Origin of Natural Gas Liquids Production,” for gas 

processed, plant fuel, and extraction loss data;

 Form EIA-191M, “Monthly Underground Gas Storage 

Report," for injections and withdrawals, and Form 

EIA-191A, "Annual Underground Gas Storage 

Report,” for capacities;

 Form EIA-857, “Monthly Report of Natural Gas Purchases 

and Deliveries to Consumers,” for citygate prices;

 Form EIA-923, “Power Plant Operations Report,” Form 

EIA-920, “Combined Heat and Power Plant Report,” 

Form EIA-906, “Power Plant Report,” Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (FERC) Form 423, “Monthly 

Cost and Quality of Fuels for Electric Plants Report,” 

and Form EIA-423, “Monthly Cost and Quality of Fuels 

for Electric Plants Report,” for the quantity of gas 

consumed by the electric power sector and the price of 

natural gas consumed by electric power;

 Form EIA-910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer 

Survey,” for natural gas prices paid by residential 

and/or commercial end-use customers in the States of 

Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, 

New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the 

District of Columbia; and

 Office of Fossil Energy report, Natural Gas Imports 

and Exports, for the quantity and price of natural gas 

imports and exports.

More discussion of data sources and methodology is 

provided in Appendix A.

EIA’s ongoing data quality efforts have resulted in 

revisions to the 2008 data series. Production volumes 

have been revised for several States. Several data series 

based on the Form EIA-176, including deliveries to endusers in several States, were also revised. 

What’s New

A new data item has been added for this edition of the NGA: 

 For the first time, production data from shale gas wells, now collected on the Form EIA-895, are listed separately in 

this publication (see Tables 1, 3, and applicable State Summary tables). For 2008 and 2009, shale production 

volumes are broken out separately, but remain embedded in gas well volumes for prior years.

 a EIA reduced the reported volume of gas imported by pipeline from Canada by 

the amount of natural gas liquids removed from the saturated natural gas carried by 

Alliance Pipeline. Alliance moves saturated natural gas from the border to a 

processing plant in Illinois. After the adjustment, volumes of imported natural gas 

on this pipeline are on the same physical basis as other reported volumes of 

pipeline imports. 

 R Revised data. 

 -- Not applicable. 

 Notes: Prices for LNG imports are reported as “landed,” received at the 

terminal, or “tailgate,” after regasification at the terminal. Generally the reporting of 

LNG import prices varies by point of entry, and the average prices are calculated 

from a combination of both types of prices. The price of LNG exports to Japan is 

the “landed” price, defined as received at the terminal in Japan. Totals may not 

equal sum of components due to independent rounding.

 a Alliance Pipeline moves saturated natural gas from the Canadian border at 

Sherwood, ND, to the Aux Sable processing plant in Illinois. EIA adjusted the Alliance 

import volumes to remove volumes of natural gas liquids reported by Alliance. The 

import volumes of dry natural gas are then comparable with other volumes of pipeline 

imports. 

 R Revised data. 

 -- Not applicable. 

 Notes: Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding. 

Geographic coverage is the continental United States including Alaska. Prices for 

LNG imports are reported as “landed,” defined as received at the terminal or 

“tailgate,” defined as after regasification at the terminal. Generally, all prices for 

shipments received at Everett, MA, are reported as landed and at Lake Charles, LA, 

as tailgate. Estimates for Canadian pipeline volumes are derived from the Office of 

Fossil Energy, Natural Gas Imports and Exports, and EIA estimates of dry natural 

gas imports. Prices are in nominal dollars.

versus percent sold by marketers according to volumes reported on Form EIA-176. 

 R Revised data. 

 Notes: Prices represent the annual-average retail price for volumes delivered 

to residential and commercial customers by marketers who report on Form EIA910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer Survey,” and local distribution companies who 

report on Form EIA-176, “Annual Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas Supply 

and Disposition.” Both sets of prices include the cost of the gas commodity/supply 

and all transportation and delivery charges. Since the prices reflect each State’s 

aggregate of multiple local distribution companies and marketers, a comparison of 

the aggregate prices may not represent the realized price savings that an individual 

customer might have obtained. Localized tariff rates, distinct contract/pricing 

options, and contract timing may affect the price differential between marketers and 

licensed distribution companies.

 Data Collection and

 Report Methodology 
Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009 169

Appendix A 

Summary of Data Collection and Report Methodology

The 2009 data for the Natural Gas Annual are taken 

primarily from Form EIA-176, “Annual Report of Natural 

and Supplemental Gas Supply and Disposition,” and Form 

EIA-895, “Annual Quantity and Value of Natural Gas 

Report.” Each of these surveys and all other sources of data 

for this report are discussed separately in the following 

sections. 

Form EIA-176 

Survey Design 

The original version of Form EIA-176 was approved in 

1980 with a mandatory response requirement. Prior to 

1980, published data were based on voluntary responses to 

Bureau of Mines, U.S. Department of the Interior 

predecessor Forms BOM-6-1340-A and BOM-6-1341-A of 

the same title. 

The Form EIA-176 is a five-page form consisting of seven 

parts. Part 1 of the form contains identifying information 

including the company identification number, the company 

name and address, the State for which the report is filed, 

and address correction information. Part 2 contains 

information on reporting requirements, while Part 3 asks for 

the type of operations the company conducts. The body of 

the form (Parts 4-7) is a multi-line schedule for reporting all 

supplies of natural gas and supplemental gaseous fuels and 

their disposition within the State indicated. Respondents 

filed completed forms with the EIA in Washington, D.C. 

Data for the year 2009 were due March 1, 2010. 

A copy of the Form EIA-176 and instructions is available 

at: 

http://www.eia.doe.gov/oil_gas/natural_gas/survey_forms/ 

nat_survey_forms.html

Data reported on this form are not considered proprietary. 

In January 2010, forms for report year 2009 were mailed to 

all identified interstate natural gas pipeline companies; 

intrastate natural gas pipeline companies; investor and 

municipally owned natural gas distributors; underground 

natural gas storage operators; synthetic natural gas plant 

operators; field, well, or processing plant operators that 

delivered natural gas directly to consumers (including their 

own industrial facilities) other than for lease or plant use or 

processing; field, well, or processing-plant operators that 

transported gas to, across, or from a State border through 

field or gathering facilities; and liquefied natural gas (LNG) 

storage operators. Detailed instructions for completing the 

form were included in each survey package. 

Completed forms were returned to the EIA, where each was 

checked for errors, corrected as necessary, and processed 

into computer-generated State and National data 

summaries. 

Response Statistics 

Each company and its parent company or subsidiaries were 

required to file for each State in which their operations met 

the EIA-176 survey criteria. The original mailing totaled 

2001 questionnaire packages. To the original mailing list, 

92 names were added and 25 were deleted as a result of the 

survey processing. Additions were identified from a special 

frames update process and by way of comparisons to 

additional natural gas industry survey mailing lists. 

Deletions resulted from post office returns and other 

research that identified companies that were out of 

business, sold, or out of the scope of the survey. After all 

updates, the 2009 survey universe consisted of 2,068 active 

respondents. 

Following the original mailing, a second request mailing, 

and nonrespondent follow-up, there were 49

nonrespondents. 

Summary of Form EIA-176 Data Reporting 

Requirements 

Computer edit programs verify the report year, State code, 

and arithmetic totals. Further tests were made to ensure 

that all necessary data elements were present and that the 

data were reasonable and internally consistent. The 

computerized edit system produced error listings with 

messages for each failed edit test. To resolve problems, 

respondents were contacted and required to file amended 

forms with corrected data where necessary. 

Comparison of the Form EIA-176 with Other Data 

Sources 

Comparison of the EIA-176 data with data from similar 

series is another method of ensuring the validity of the data 

published in this report. When these comparisons on a 
170 Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009

company-by-company basis showed significant differences, 

respondents were required to reconcile the data. 

Data on imports and exports of natural gas, as collected by 

the EIA-176 survey, were checked by comparing individual 

responses with quarterly data reports, “Natural Gas Imports 

and Exports,” filed with the Office of Fossil Energy, U.S. 

Department of Energy. These quarterly reports are required 

as a condition of import/export authorizations. Where 

discrepancies were noted, respondents were required to file 

corrected reports. 

Similarly, data on the underground storage of natural gas 

were compared with submissions of Form EIA-191M, 

“Monthly Underground Gas Storage Report," and Form 

EIA-191A, "Annual Underground Gas Storage Report.” If 

significant differences were noted, companies were 

contacted to reconcile the discrepancies. 

Data on deliveries to residential, commercial, and industrial 

consumers were compared with data submitted on Form 

EIA-857, “Monthly Report of Natural Gas Purchases and 

Deliveries to Consumers.” Where discrepancies were 

noted, respondents were required to file corrected reports, 

sometimes for both surveys. Numerous contacts were made 

to clarify any misunderstandings concerning the correct 

filing of data. Typical errors included electric power 

volumes combined with industrial volumes, sales for resale 

volumes reported as industrial consumption, and 

misinterpretation of general instructions. 

Pipeline flows were also compared to pipeline capacity 

information filed at the Federal Energy Regulatory 

Commission. Flow volumes in excess of pipeline capacity 

required research and, in some cases, respondents were 

required to file corrected reports. 

Cautionary Note: Number of Residential and 

Commercial Consumers 

There may be some double counting in the number of 

residential and commercial consumers reported for the 

years presented in this report, 2005 through 2009. 

EIA collects data on the number of residential and 

commercial consumers through a survey of companies that 

deliver gas to consumers (Form EIA-176). The survey asks 

companies for the number of customers served as sales 

customers as well as customers to whom they deliver gas 

purchased from others. Traditionally, residential and 

commercial customers obtained the gas and all services 

associated with delivering it from their local distribution 

company (LDC). The LDC records these customers as 

sales customers. Customer choice programs allow 

consumers to select the provider from whom they purchase 

gas. When customers elect to purchase gas from a provider 

other than the LDC, the LDC continues to deliver the gas to 

the household even though it no longer sells the gas. When 

customers switch to another provider, they become 

 

transportation service customers for the LDC. A residential 

customer who enters a customer choice program during a 

year may be classified both as a traditional sales customer 

and, after entering the customer choice program, as a 

transportation service customer. In addition, some 

residential and commercial consumers may switch from 

transportation to sales service, for instance, when a choice 

pilot program ends. The potential double reporting affects 

the number of consumers shown in the Natural Gas Annual. 

Tables 19-20 assist readers in evaluating the extent and 

possible effect of double reporting. Tables 19-20 list the 

number of sales and transportation customers, for 

residential and commercial consumers, respectively, 

reported on Form EIA-176 for 2008 and 2009. Appendix A 

provides a link to the survey Form EIA-176, “Annual 

Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas Supply and 

Disposition,” on the EIA web site. Numbers of residential 

customers are reported on this form for both sales (in Part 6, 

lines 10.1) and transportation (in Part 6, line 11.1). 

Numbers of commercial customers are reported on this 

form for both sales (in Part 6, line 10.2) and transportation 

(in Part 6, line 11.2). 

Customer choice programs, also known as retail unbundling 

programs, were implemented starting in the late 1990s. A 

description of these programs for States offering customer 

choice is on the EIA web site at: 

http://www.eia.doe.gov/oil_gas/natural_gas/restructure/ 

restructure.html

Form EIA-895 

Survey Design 

Beginning with 1980 data, natural gas production data 

previously obtained on an informal basis from appropriate 

State agencies were collected on Form EIA-627. This form 

was designed by the EIA to collect annual natural gas 

production data from the appropriate State agencies under a 

standard data reporting system within the limits imposed by 

the diversity of data collection systems of the various 

producing States. 

In 1996, the Form was redesigned and assigned a new 

number. The new voluntary Form EIA-895 included both a 

Monthly and an Annual Schedule for quantity and value of 

natural gas production. The Monthly Schedule was 

discontinued in 2008. The Annual Schedule is requested to 

be filed each year 90 days after the end of the report year. 

In February 2010, forms for report year 2009 were emailed 

to the appropriate agencies in 32 States. Completed forms 

were returned to the EIA for review, processing, and 

 
Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009 171

compilation. A copy of the Form EIA-895 and instructions 

is available at: 

http://www.eia.doe.gov/pub/oil_gas/natural_gas/survey_for

ms/eia895f.pdf

Production data for five of the major producing States 

(Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, and Wyoming) 

were obtained directly from State agencies and Statesponsored public record databases as part of the ongoing 

monthly EIA-914, “Monthly Natural Gas Production 

Report” data program. Production data for the Federal Gulf 

of Mexico region are provided by the U.S. Bureau of Ocean 

Energy Management, Regulation, and Enforcement 

(BOEMRE), formerly the Minerals Management Service. 

Response Statistics 

Of the 32 natural gas producing States, 31 participated in the 

EIA-895 voluntary survey by filing the completed form or by 

responding to telephone contacts. Data for Illinois, which did 

not respond, were estimated. As noted above, data for 

Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, and Wyoming 

were obtained from State agencies under the EIA-914 data 

program. 

The commercial recovery of natural gas from shale 

formations contributes a significant amount to the 

production totals in a number of States. This edition of the 

NGA includes shale gas production data as a separate item 

for the first time (see Tables 1, 3, and applicable State 

Summary tables). Herein, shale production volumes are 

broken out separately for 2008 and 2009 but remain 

embedded in gas well volumes for prior years. Similarly, 

coalbed volumes, first broken out as a separate production 

category in the 2008 NGA, are included in gas well 

production totals for years prior to 2007. 

Summary of EIA-895 Data Reporting Requirements 

The Form EIA-895 is a two-page form divided into four 

parts. Part 1 requests identifying information including the 

name and location of the responding State agency and the 

name and telephone number of a contact person within the 

agency. Part 2 provides submission instructions; part 3 

collects annual data on the production of natural gas 

including gross withdrawals from gas, oil, coalbed, and 

shale gas wells; volumes returned to formation for 

repressuring, pressure maintenance, and cycling; quantities 

vented and flared; quantities of nonhydrocarbon gases 

removed; quantities of fuel used on lease; and marketed 

production. Part 4 collects information on the quantity and 

value of marketed production (value based). 

Routine Form EIA-895 Edit Checks 

Each filing of the Form EIA-895 is manually checked for 

reasonableness and mathematical accuracy. Volumes are 

converted, as necessary, to a standard 14.73 pounds per 

square inch absolute pressure base. Value data are 

compared to the previous year’s data for reasonableness. 

When data on nonhydrocarbon gases removed, gas vented 

and flared, and gas used for repressuring are not reported 

for a State that historically reported one or more of these 

items, a volume is imputed. The imputation is based on the 

average ratio of gas volumes in the missing category to total 

gross withdrawals in States with values reporting gas in that 

category. This average ratio is applied to the volume of 

total gross withdrawals reported by the State to calculate 

the volume for the missing items. State agencies are 

contacted by telephone in order to correct errors. Amended 

filings or resubmissions are not a requirement, since 

participation in the survey is voluntary. 

Comparison of the Form EIA-895 with Other Data 

Sources 

Annual production data, as reported on Form EIA-895, are 

compared to other data sources to ensure accuracy and 

reasonableness. These sources include monthly production 

data from Form EIA-914, as well as third party data 

providers such as HPDI and BENTEK Energy, LLC. Any 

significant differences are resolved by contacting the 

reporting State. 

Form EIA-910 

Survey Design 

The Form EIA-910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer 

Survey,” collects information on natural gas sales from 

marketers in selected States (Florida, Georgia, Illinois, 

Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, 

Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, and the District of 

Columbia) that have active customer choice programs. 

These States were selected based on the percentage of 

natural gas sold by marketers in the residential and 

commercial end-use sectors. The survey collects monthly 

price and volume data on natural gas sold by all marketers 

in the selected States. A natural gas marketer is a company 

that competes with other companies to sell natural gas, but 

relies on regulated local distribution companies to deliver 

the gas. The data collected on the Form EIA-910 are 

integrated with residential and commercial price data from 

the Form EIA-176 and Form EIA-857 for the States and 

sectors where the EIA-910 data are published. Currently 

those States are Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan 

(commercial sector only), New Jersey (residential sector 

only), New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and the 

District of Columbia (commercial sector only). 

Response Statistics 

Response to the Form EIA-910 is mandatory and data are 

considered proprietary. Approximately 250 natural gas 

marketers report to the survey. Final monthly survey 

response rates are approximately 95 percent. Responses are 

filed with EIA in Washington, DC, on or before the 30th 

day after the end of the report month. 
172 Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009

Routine Form EIA-910 Edit Checks 

Each filing of the Form EIA-910 is manually checked for 

reasonableness and mathematical accuracy. State-level 

price and volume data are compared to data collected on the 

Form EIA-857 on a monthly basis and the Form EIA-176 

on an annual basis. Residential and commercial volume 

data collected from marketers on the Form EIA-910 are 

expected to match residential and commercial 

transportation volume data collected monthly on the Form 

EIA-857 and annually on the Form EIA-176. When 

discrepancies are noted, respondents on one or all of the 

surveys are required to submit corrected reports. 

Other Data Sources

Offshore Production 

The EIA developed estimates of the quantity of natural gas 

production and the number of producing wells for the 

Federal Offshore Gulf of Mexico region from well-level 

data files provided by the BOEMRE, and predecessor 

agencies, for the years 2005 through 2009. The production 

data estimation methodology is described on the EIA 

website. 

Marketed Production 

Marketed production of natural gas is taken from responses 

to Part 4 of the Form EIA-895. It is the quantity of natural 

gas produced that is available for marketing, and is reported 

in Tables 3 and 6. It refers to quantities of gas available 

after processes related to production are complete. These 

processes are repressuring, pressure maintenance, cycling, 

venting and flaring, removing nonhydrocarbon gases, and 

using fuel on the lease. 

Average wellhead prices are calculated from volumes and 

values reported in Part 4 of the Form EIA-895. These data 

are shown as “Reported Wellhead Value” in Table 6. The 

volumes in this section refer to the actual amounts of 

natural gas reported to the States as sold. 

In the case when wellhead prices are not reported by the 

States, EIA may elect to impute an estimated price. The 

estimation procedure is used in States where specific 

criteria are met, namely production occurs in a location 

with easily accessible pipeline transportation systems 

connecting to nearby natural gas trading hubs. Under these 

criteria, EIA assumes that natural gas spot prices represent a 

reasonable estimate of natural gas wellhead prices. EIA 

uses the volumetric annual average of publicly available 

spot prices provided by the Intercontinental Exchange, 

which are converted to dollars-per-thousand cubic feet. 

In many States, the marketed production volumes used in 

revenue calculations are larger than the reported wellhead 

value volumes. Differences in these volumes generally 

result from differences in definition and reporting 

requirements for separate data systems in the State. For 

example, while production quantities of Federal, tribal, and 

State royalty gas are included in marketed production, some 

State reporting rules exclude these quantities from reported 

wellhead value volumes. 

Natural Gas Processed and Extraction Loss 

Extraction loss is the reduction in the volume of natural gas 

available for disposition resulting from the removal of 

natural gas liquid constituents at natural gas processing 

plants. It represents that portion of the “raw” gas stream 

transferred from the natural gas supply chain to the 

petroleum and natural gas liquids supply chain. Extraction 

loss does not include the reduction in volume resulting from 

the removal of nonhydrocarbon constituents or gas used as 

fuel, vented, flared, or otherwise disposed of within natural 

gas processing plants. Extraction loss also results in a 

reduction in the total heat (Btu) content of the natural gas 

stream equal to the heat content of the liquids extracted. 

The Form EIA-64A, “Annual Report of the Origin of 

Natural Gas Liquids Production,” collects data on the 

volume of natural gas received for processing, the total 

quantity of natural gas liquids produced, and the resulting 

shrinkage (defined as extraction loss in this report) from all 

natural gas processing- and cycling-plant operators. The 

quantity of natural gas received and liquids produced are 

reported by State of origin of the natural gas. Shrinkage 

volumes are calculated and reported by plant operators 

based upon the chemical composition of the liquids 

extracted using standard conversion factors specified in the 

form instructions. A description of the Form EIA-64A 

survey is presented in the EIA publication, U.S. Crude Oil, 

Natural Gas, and Natural Gas Liquids Reserves, Annual 

Reports. 

The heat (Btu) content of liquids extracted is not reported 

on the Form EIA-64A. Therefore, in order to estimate the 

extraction loss heat content, data reported on the Form EIA816, “Monthly Natural Gas Liquids Report,” were used to 

determine the individual products contained in the total 

liquids reported on Form EIA-64A. A description of the 

Form EIA-816 survey is presented in the EIA publication, 

Petroleum Supply Annual, Volume II. 

To estimate the quantities of individual products extracted 

in each State, data from the Form EIA-64A survey were 

used to determine the total liquids production, and data 

from the Form EIA-816 survey were used to estimate the 

quantities of the individual products contained in those total 

liquids. 

The Form EIA-816 captures information on the quantity of 

individual components (i.e., ethane, propane, normal 

butane, isobutane, and pentanes plus) produced or 

contained in mixes of plant liquids as determined by 

chemical analysis. The volumetric ratios of the individual 

components to the total liquids, as calculated from the 12 

monthly Form EIA-816 reports for each State, were applied 

to the annual total liquids production, as reported on the 
Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009 173

Form EIA-64A, to estimate the quantities of individual 

components removed at gas-processing plants. 

The heat (Btu) content of extracted liquids was estimated 

by applying conversion factors to the estimated quantities 

of products extracted in each State. These conversion 

factors, in million Btu per barrel of liquid produced, were 

ethane, 3.082; propane, 3.836; normal butane, 4.326; 

isobutane, 3.974; and pentane plus, 4.620. It should be 

noted that, at the State level, extraction losses are not 

necessarily related to State production. 

Imports and Exports 

Volumes and prices of natural gas imports and exports were 

reported to the Office of Fossil Energy, U.S. Department of 

Energy, Natural Gas Imports and Exports. These data are 

nonproprietary and are filed annually by each individual or 

organization having authorization to import and export natural gas. 

Lease and Plant Fuel

 Lease and plant fuel represent those quantities of natural 

gas used in well, field, and/or lease operations (such as gas 

used in drilling operations, heaters, dehydrators, and field 

compressors) and as fuel in natural gas processing plants. 

Lease fuel data were collected for report year 2009 on the 

Form EIA-895. Of the 32 States and the Federal Gulf of 

Mexico represented on the Form EIA-895, 20 States 

reported quantities of natural gas used as lease fuel. In the 

absence of reporting quantities on the Form EIA-895, the 

Form EIA-176 or an average of the state’s historical ratio of 

lease fuel to gross withdrawals were used to estimate lease 

fuel quantities. 

Although EIA recognizes that lease data collected on the 

Form EIA-176 do not constitute a census or result from a 

statistically selected sample, the data collected in the survey 

provide the best information available to the EIA for 

estimating such usage. To estimate lease use during 2009 

(Table 15), several simplifying assumptions were made: 

 The quantity of gas used for lease fuel was assumed to 

be a function of gross withdrawals of natural gas from 

gas, oil, coalbed, and shale wells. 

 The average proportion of company-owned on-system 

production reported as used in lease operations by 

respondents to the Form EIA-176 was assumed to be 

typical of the average use by all operators as a 

proportion of gross withdrawals. 

Form EIA-176 respondents reported volumes of companyowned onsystem production equivalent to 1.2 percent of 

2009 total gross withdrawals reported on the EIA-895. The 

ratio of lease use to production in Alaska reported on the 

EIA-176 was exceptionally high and not used for 

determining the estimates. Submissions of Form EIA-895 

from Alaska included a reported lease use volume. Lease 

use reported by respondents on the EIA-176 in the 

remaining States averaged 4.3 percent of their reported 

production. The fuel-use estimates shown in Table 15 were 

calculated by applying the EIA-176 ratios to the gross 

withdrawals from the States not reporting lease use on the 

EIA-895, with the exception of Arkansas, Florida, and 

Oklahoma. Historically, the percentage of gross 

withdrawals used as lease fuel has been fundamentally 

different in these three States than the percentage reflected 

by the EIA-176 form. EIA felt these values would be better 

represented by taking a 5-year average of each State’s 

percentage of gross withdrawals used as lease fuel. These 

percentages were then applied to each State’s reported gross 

withdrawals to obtain an estimated lease fuel volume. 

Plant fuel data are obtained from Form EIA-64A. 

Electric Power Generation Data 

The data reported for the electric power sector in the 

Natural Gas Annual 2009 are derived entirely from data 

submitted on electricity data collection forms. These 

include Form EIA-860, “Annual Electric Generator 

Report,” Form EIA-906, “Power Plant Report,” Form EIA920, “Combined Heat and Power Plant Report,” FERC 

Form 423, “Monthly Report of Cost and Quality of Fuels 

for Electric Plants,” and Form EIA-423, “Monthly Report 

of Costs and Quality of Fuels for Electric Plants Report.” 

From 2007 forward, all data previously derived from Form 

EIA-906, Form EIA-920, FERC Form 423, and Form EIA423 are now derived from Form EIA-923, “Power Plant 

Operations Report.” 

The electric power sector includes electricity-only and 

combined heat and power plants whose primary business is 

to sell electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public. The 

change in reported volumes from “electric utilities” to 

“electric power sector” effected in the Natural Gas Annual 

2001, was made in order to maintain consistency among 

EIA publications. 

Natural Gas Consumed as a Vehicle Fuel 

Volumes of natural gas consumed as vehicle fuel that are 

published in the Natural Gas Annual 2009 for years 2005 to 

2008 were estimated by EIA based on Form EIA-886, 

“Annual Survey of Alternative Fueled Vehicles.” To 

estimate consumption for the year 2009, the 2008 volumes 

were multiplied by the following ratio: 2009 average daily 

consumption of vehicle fuel divided by the corresponding 

2008 figure. The source of the average daily consumption 

figure in billions of cubic feet per day is the EIA Short 

Term Energy Outlook (STEO). Vehicle fuel prices continue 

to be calculated from data obtained from the Form EIA176. 

Coverage of Consumer Prices 

Coverage for prices varies by consumer sector as discussed 

below. All average prices are computed by dividing the 
174 Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009

reported revenue by its associated sales volume. Prices for 

deliveries of natural gas to residential, commercial and 

industrial consumers are calculated from reports to Form 

EIA-176, “Annual Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas 

Supply and Disposition,” for most States and sectors. 

Beginning with 2002 data in the States of Georgia, 

Maryland, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, the 

residential and commercial sector prices reported include 

data on prices of gas sold to customers in those sectors by 

energy marketers. These latter data are collected on Form 

EIA-910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer Survey.” 

Beginning in 2005, residential prices in Florida, New 

Jersey, Virginia and commercial prices in Florida, 

Michigan, Virginia and the District of Columbia also 

include sales by energy marketers that are collected on the 

Form EIA-910. 

With the unbundling of services in the natural gas industry, 

pipeline and local distribution companies provide 

transportation service for end-user customers to whom they 

do not sell the gas. In this report, those volumes are 

described as deliveries of gas for the account of others. 

 

When companies that deliver gas are the sellers of that gas, 

they are able to report the associated revenue to EIA. Those 

volumes are described as onsystem sales. When the firm 

that physically delivers gas to the end user acts as a 

transportation agent, it does not know the sales price of the 

gas. Respondents, therefore, do not report a revenue amount 

associated with deliveries for the account of others in their 

submissions of the Form EIA-176. Beginning in 2002 in 

the States of Georgia, Maryland, New York, Ohio and 

Pennsylvania, natural gas marketers who sell gas 

transported to residential and commercial customers by 

local distribution companies report the revenues from the 

sale of this gas to EIA on Form EIA-910, “Monthly Natural 

Gas Marketer Survey.” Beginning in 2005, the same is true 

for Florida in the residential and commercial sector, 

Michigan in the commercial sector, New Jersey in the 

residential sector, Virginia in the residential and 

commercial sector and in the District of Columbia in the 

commercial sector. In these States, prices in the residential 

and commercial sectors are calculated by combining data 

from the Form EIA-176, Form EIA-857 and Form EIA-910. 

Citygate prices are calculated from reports to the Form 

EIA-857, “Monthly Report of Natural Gas Purchases and 

Deliveries to Consumers.” Both the Forms EIA-176 and 

EIA-857 are completed by companies that deliver natural 

gas to end-use consumers while the Form EIA-910 is 

completed by marketers or companies that sell but do not 

deliver natural gas to end-use consumers. 

Citygate: Citygate prices represent the total cost paid by 

gas distribution companies for gas received at the point 

where the gas is physically transferred from a pipeline 

company or transmission system. This price is intended to 

reflect all charges for the acquisition, storage, and 

transportation of gas as well as other charges associated 

with the LDCs obtaining the gas for sale to consumers. 

Prices for gas delivered to the citygate represent all of the 

volumes of gas purchased by LDCs for subsequent sale and 

delivery to consumers in their service area. Since these 

prices are reported on a monthly form, the annual average 

citygate price is calculated by summing the monthly 

revenues reported and dividing that figure by the sum of the 

monthly reported volumes. 

Residential: Prices in this publication for the residential 

sector cover nearly all of the volumes of gas delivered. 

Commercial and Industrial: Prices for the commercial 

and industrial sectors are often associated with relatively 

small volumes of the total gas delivered. This occurs 

because they are reported by those that deliver gas and not 

by either the gas resellers or by the consumers. The 

delivery agent provides transportation service only and does 

not know the commodity cost of the gas it transports. 

Natural gas prices reported for commercial and industrial 

consumers represent only those purchases from local 

distribution companies except for the States of Florida, 

Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Ohio, 

Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the District of Columbia where 

commercial prices include data from natural gas marketers 

who sell gas transported to end-use commercial customers 

by local distribution companies. With the above exception, 

natural gas prices for commercial and industrial customers 

exclude volumes transported, but not sold, by the local 

distribution company or pipeline company. 

Electric Utilities: Prior to 2007, prices for natural gas were 

also reported to the EIA on the FERC Form 423, “Monthly 

Report of Cost and Quality of Fuels for Electric Plants.” 

Electric utility prices in this report are taken from this 

form. The respondents are regulated electric utilities that 

report receipts and prices of fuels and represent most of the 

volumes delivered to electric utilities. These prices are also 

published in several other EIA reports, i.e., Electric Power 

Monthly, Electric Power Annual, and Cost and Quality of 

Fuels for Electric Plants. From 2007 forward, these 

electric utility data are derived from Form EIA-923, “Power 

Plant Operations Report.” Prices to electric utilities cover 

gas purchased by regulated electric generating plants whose 

total steam turbine electric generating capacity and/or 

combined-cycle (gas turbine with associated steam turbine) 

generating capacity is 50 or more megawatts. The Natural 

Gas Annual reports natural gas prices for electric utilities 

through 2001 and for the electric power sector thereafter. 

Electric Power: From 2003 to 2006, prices for natural gas 

were supported by two separate surveys: FERC Form 423, 

which is completed by regulated utilities and Form EIA423, “Monthly Report of Cost and Quality of Fuels for 

Electric Plants Report,” which is completed by 

 
Energy Information Administration / Natural Gas Annual 2009 175

nonregulated power producers. The Form EIA-423 survey 

began in January 2002 and collects information from the 

nonutility portion of the electric power sector. Data in this 

report for 2003 forward cover the regulated (steam-electric 

and combined-cycle units) and unregulated (regardless of 

unit type) generating plants whose total facility fossilfueled nameplate generating capacity is 50 megawatts or 

greater. Beginning in 2007, data previously collected on 

Form EIA-423 and FERC Form 423 are now collected on 

Form EIA-923, “Power Plant Operations Report.” 

Vehicle Fuel: Volumes of natural gas consumed as 

vehicle fuel that are published in the Natural Gas Annual 

2009 for years 2005 to 2009 were estimated by EIA based 

on Form EIA-886, “Annual Survey of Alternative Fueled 

Vehicles.” To estimate consumption for a given year, the 

volumes from Form EIA-886 for the most recently 

available prior year were projected forward to the given 

year using the growth rates implied by the estimated daily 

consumption figures in the EIA Short Term Energy 

Outlook (STEO). Vehicle fuel prices continue to be 

calculated from data obtained from the Form EIA-176. 

Most of the natural gas delivered for vehicle fuel 

represents deliveries to refueling stations that are used 

primarily or exclusively by fleet vehicles. Thus, the 

prices are often those associated with the operation of 

fleet vehicles and may be based on internal transfer prices 

for companies primarily in the natural gas 

business. Because two different sources are used, with a 

different reporting population, coverage varies and leads 

to instances in which volumes, but no price data are 

available. 

Natural Gas Balancing Item 

The natural gas balancing item represents the difference 

between the sum of the components of natural gas supply 

and the sum of the components of natural gas disposition. 

It is calculated for each State as the result of a comparison 

between total reported supply and total reported disposition 

(Table 2). In the formula used, total reported supply is the 

sum of marketed production, net interstate movements, net 

movements across U.S. borders, and supplemental gaseous 

fuels supplies. Total reported disposition is the sum of 

extraction loss, net storage changes (net additions to 

storage), and consumption. When this calculation results in 

a negative quantity for the balancing item it represents an 

excess of reported supply in relation to reported 

disposition, and positive quantities indicate the opposite 

situation. 

The differences between supply and demand represent 

quantities lost, the net result of gas company 

conversions of flow data metered at varying 

temperature and pressure conditions to a standard 

temperature and pressure base, metering inaccuracies, 

the effect of variations in company accounting and 

billing practices, differences between billing cycle and 

calendar-period time frames, and imbalances resulting 

from EIA’s merger of data reporting systems, which 

vary in scope, format, definitions, and type of 

respondents. The balancing items in individual States 

may also reflect the underreporting on Form EIA-176 

of gas transported across State borders for the account 

of others by some interstate pipelines.

 Note: Unaccounted for natural gas represents the difference between the sum of 

the components of natural gas supply and the sum of components of natural gas 

disposition, as reported by survey respondents. These differences may be due to 

quantities lost or to the effects of differences in company accounting systems in 

terms of scope and definition. A positive “unaccounted for” volume means that

supply exceeds disposition by that amount. A negative “unaccounted for” volume 

means that supply is less than disposition.

the United States for 2005 through 2009 in metric units of 

measure. Volumes are shown in cubic meters instead of 

cubic feet. Prices are shown in nominal dollars per thousand 

cubic meters instead of dollars per thousand cubic feet. The 

data in this table have been converted from the data that 

appear in Table 1 of this report. 

Thermal Conversions 

Table B2 presents the thermal (Btu) conversion factors and 

the converted data for natural gas supply and disposition 

from 2005 through 2009. A brief documentation for the 

thermal conversion factors follows: 

 Marketed Production. The conversion factor is 

calculated by adding the total heat content of dry 

production to the total heat content of extraction loss 

and dividing the resulting sum by the total quantity of 

dry production and extraction loss (see below). 

 Extraction Loss. The conversion factor is obtained 

from Appendix A of this publication. 

 Dry Production. The conversion factor is assumed to 

be the same as the thermal conversion factors for 

consumption (see below). 

 Withdrawals from Storage. Both underground and 

LNG storage withdrawals are assumed to have the 

same heat content as consumption (see below). 

 Supplemental Gas Supplies. This conversion factor is 

assumed to be the same as that for consumption (see 

below). 

 Balancing Item. This conversion factor is calculated 

by subtracting the total heat content of all other items 

of supply from the heat content of total disposition 

(from Table B2) and dividing the difference by the 

balancing item quantity. 

 Consumption. The thermal conversion factor for total 

consumption (lease fuel, plant fuel, pipeline fuel, and 

deliveries to consumers) is the average heat content for 

deliveries to end users as reported on the Energy 

Information Administration’s (EIA) Form EIA-176, 

“Annual Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas 

Supply and Disposition.” Average heat content of 

consumption in the Electric Power Sector is obtained 

from Form EIA-906, "Power Plant Report," prior to 

2007, and from Form EIA-923, “Power Plant 

Operations Report,” thereafter. 

 Additions to Storage. Additions to both underground 

and LNG storage are assumed to have the same heat 

content as consumption (see above).

Glossary

Aquifer Storage Field: A sub-surface facility for storing 

natural gas consisting of water-bearing sands topped by an 

impermeable cap rock. 

Balancing Item: Represents differences between the sum 

of the components of natural gas supply and the sum of the 

components of natural gas disposition. These differences 

may be due to quantities lost or to the effects of datareporting problems. Reporting problems include differences 

due to the net result of conversions of flow data metered at 

varying temperature and pressure bases and converted to a 

standard temperature and pressure base; the effect of 

variations in company accounting and billing practices; 

differences between billing cycle and calendar period time 

frames; and imbalances resulting from the merger of datareporting systems that vary in scope, format, definitions, 

and type of respondents. 

Biomass Gas: A medium Btu gas containing methane and 

carbon dioxide, resulting from the action of microorganisms 

on organic materials such as a landfill. 

British Thermal Unit (Btu): The quantity of heat required 

to raise the temperature of 1 pound of water by 1 degree 

Fahrenheit at the temperature at which water has its greatest 

density (approximately 39 degrees Fahrenheit). 

Citygate: A point or measuring station at which a 

distributing gas utility receives gas from a natural gas 

pipeline company or transmission system. 

Coalbed Methane Well Gas: Methane is generated during 

coal formation and is contained in the coal microstructure. 

Typical recovery entails pumping water out of the coal to 

allow the gas to escape. Methane is the principal component 

of natural gas. Coal bed methane can be added to natural 

gas pipelines without any special treatment. 

Coke Oven Gas: The mixture of permanent gases produced 

by the carbonization of coal in a coke oven at temperatures 

in excess of 1,000 degrees Celsius. 

Commercial Consumption: Gas used by 

nonmanufacturing establishments or agencies primarily 

engaged in the sale of goods or services. Included are such 

establishments as hotels, restaurants, wholesale and retail 

stores and other service enterprises; gas used by local, 

State, and Federal agencies engaged in nonmanufacturing 

activities. 

Consumption: Natural gas used as lease fuel, plant fuel, 

for use by pipeline and distribution systems, and by endusers (including residential, commercial, industrial, electric 

power, and vehicle fuel).

Delivered: The physical transfer of natural, synthetic, 

and/or supplemental gas from facilities operated by the 

responding company to facilities operated by others or to 

consumers. 

Depleted Storage Field: A sub-surface natural geological 

reservoir, usually a depleted oil or gas field, used for storing 

natural gas. 

Dry Natural Gas: Natural gas which remains after: 1) the 

liquefiable hydrocarbon portion has been removed from the 

gas stream (i.e., gas after lease, field, and/or plant 

separation); and 2) any volumes of nonhydrocarbon gases 

have been removed where they occur in sufficient quantity 

to render the gas unmarketable. (Note: Dry natural gas is 

also known as consumer-grade natural gas. The parameters 

for measurement are cubic feet at 60 degrees Fahrenheit 

and 14.73 pounds per square inch absolute.) 

Dry Natural Gas Production: The process of producing 

consumer-grade natural gas. Natural gas withdrawn from 

reservoirs is reduced by volumes used at the production 

(lease) site and by processing losses. Volumes used at the 

production site include (1) the volume returned to reservoirs 

in cycling, repressuring of oil reservoirs, and conservation 

operations; and (2) gas vented and flared. Processing losses 

include (1) nonhydrocarbon gases (e.g., water vapor, carbon 

dioxide, helium, hydrogen sulfide, and nitrogen) removed 

from the gas stream; and (2) gas converted to liquid form, 

such as lease condensate and plant liquids. Volumes of dry 

gas withdrawn from gas storage reservoirs are not 

considered part of production. Dry natural gas production 

equals marketed production less extraction loss. 

Electric Power Consumption: Gas used as fuel in the 

electric power sector.

Electric Power Sector: An energy-consuming sector that 

consists of electricity only and combined heat and power 

(CHP) plants whose primary business is to sell electricity, 

or electricity and heat, to the public – i.e., North American 

Industry Classification System 22 plants. 

Electric Utility: A corporation, person, agency, authority, 

or other legal entity or instrumentality aligned with 

distribution facilities for delivery of electric energy for use 

primarily by the public. Included are investor-owned 

electric utilities, municipal and State utilities, Federal 

electric utilities, and rural electric cooperatives. A few 

entities that are tariff based and corporately aligned with 

companies that own distribution facilities are also included. 

(Note: Due to the issuance of FERC Order 888 that required 

traditional electric utilities to functionally unbundled their 

generation, transmission, and distribution operations, 
Energy Information Administration/Natural Gas Annual 2009 183

“electric utility” currently has inconsistent interpretations 

from State to State.) 

Exports: Natural gas deliveries out of the Continental 

United States (including Alaska) to foreign countries. 

Extraction Loss: The reduction in volume of natural gas 

due to the removal of natural gas liquid constituents such as 

ethane, propane, and butane at natural gas processing 

plants. 

Flared: Gas disposed of by burning in flares usually at the 

production sites or at gas processing plants. 

Gas Condensate Well: A gas well that produces from a 

gas reservoir containing considerable quantities of liquid 

hydrocarbons in the pentane and heavier range generally 

described as “condensate.” 

Gas Well: A well completed for the production of natural 

gas from one or more gas zones or reservoirs. Such wells 

contain no completions for the production of crude oil. 

Gross Withdrawals: Full well stream volume, including 

all natural gas plant liquid and nonhydrocarbon gases, but 

excluding lease condensate. Also includes amounts 

delivered as royalty payments or consumed in field 

operations. 

Heating Season: Typically begins in October and runs 

through the end of March. 

Heating Value: The average number of British thermal 

units per cubic foot of natural gas as determined from tests 

of fuel samples. 

Imports: Natural gas received in the Continental United 

States (including Alaska) from a foreign country. 

Industrial Consumption: Natural gas used for heat, power, 

or chemical feedstock by manufacturing establishments or 

those engaged in mining or other mineral extraction as well 

as consumers in agriculture, forestry, and fisheries. Also 

included in industrial consumption are generators that 

produce electricity and/or useful thermal output primarily to 

support the above-mentioned industrial activities. 

Intransit Deliveries: Redeliveries to a foreign country of 

foreign gas received for transportation across U.S. Territory 

and deliveries of U.S. gas to a foreign country for 

transportation across its territory and redelivery to the 

United States. 

Intransit Receipts: Receipts of foreign gas for 

transportation across U.S. territory and redelivery to a 

foreign country and redeliveries to the United States of U.S. 

gas transported across foreign territory. 

Lease Fuel: Natural gas used in well, field, and lease 

operations, such as gas used in drilling operations, heaters, 

dehydrators, and field compressors. 

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG): Natural gas (primarily 

methane) that has been liquefied by reducing its 

temperature to -260 degrees Fahrenheit at atmospheric 

pressure. 

Local Distribution Company (LDC): A legal entity 

engaged primarily in the retail sale and/or delivery of 

natural gas through a distribution system that includes 

mainlines (that is, pipelines designed to carry large volumes 

of gas, usually located under roads or other major right-ofways) and laterals (that is, pipelines of smaller diameter that 

connect the end user to the mainline). Since the 

restructuring of the gas industry, the sale of gas and/or 

delivery arrangements may be handled by other agents, 

such as producers, brokers, and marketers that are referred 

to as "non-LDC." 

Manufactured Gas: A gas obtained by destructive 

distillation of coal, or by the thermal decomposition of oil, 

or by the reaction of steam passing through a bed of heated 

coal or coke. Examples are coal gases, coke oven gases, 

producer gas, blast furnace gas, blue (water) gas, carbureted 

water gas. Btu content varies widely. 

Marketed Production: Gross withdrawals less gas used 

for repressuring quantities vented and flared, and 

nonhydrocarbon gases removed in treating or processing 

operations. Includes all quantities of gas used in field and 

processing plant operations. 

Natural Gas: A gaseous mixture of hydrocarbon 

compounds, the primary one being methane. Note: The 

Energy Information Administration measures wet natural 

gas and its two sources of production, associated/dissolved 

natural gas and nonassociated natural gas, and dry natural 

gas, which is produced from wet natural gas. 

Natural Gas Marketer: A company that arranges 

purchases and sales of natural gas. Unlike pipeline 

companies or local distribution companies, a marketer does 

not own physical assets commonly used in the supply of 

natural gas, such as pipelines or storage fields. A marketer 

may be an affiliate of another company, such as a local 

distribution company, natural gas pipeline, or producer, but 

it operates independently of other segments of the 

company. In States with residential choice programs, 

marketers serve as alternative suppliers to residential users 

of natural gas, which is delivered by a local distribution 

company. 

Nominal Dollars: A measure used to express nominal 

price. 
184 Energy Information Administration/Natural Gas Annual 2009 

Nominal Price: The price paid for a product or service 

at the time of the transaction. Nominal prices are those 

that have not been adjusted to remove the effect of 

changes in the purchasing power of the dollar; they 

reflect buying power in the year in which the 

transaction occurred. 

Nonhydrocarbon Gases: Typical nonhydrocarbon gases 

that may be present in reservoir natural gas, such as carbon 

dioxide, helium, hydrogen sulfide, and nitrogen. 

Nonutility Power Producers: A corporation, person, 

agency, authority, or other legal entity or instrumentality 

that owns or operates facilities for electric generation and is 

not an electric utility. Nonutility power producers include 

qualifying cogenerators, qualifying small power producers, 

and other nonutility generators (including independent 

power producers). Nonutility power producers are without a 

designated franchised service area and do not file forms 

listed in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 18, Part 

141. 

Offshore Reserves and Production: Unless otherwise 

indicated, reserves and production that are in either State or 

Federal domains, located seaward of the coastline. 

Oil Well (Casinghead) Gas: Natural gas produced along 

with crude oil from oil wells. It contains either dissolved or 

associated gas or both.

Onsystem Sales: Sales to customers where the delivery 

point is a point on, or directly interconnected with, a 

transportation, storage and/or distribution system operated 

by the reporting company. 

Outer Continental Shelf: Offshore Federal domain. 

Pipeline: A continuous pipe conduit, complete with such 

equipment as valves, compressor stations, communications 

systems, and meters, for transporting natural and/or 

supplemental gas from one point to another, usually from a 

point in or beyond the producing field or processing plant to 

another pipeline or to points of utilization. Also refers to a 

company operating such facilities. 

Pipeline Fuel: Gas consumed in the operation of pipelines, 

primarily in compressors. 

Plant Fuel: Natural gas used as fuel in natural gas 

processing plants. 

Propane-air: A mixture of propane and air resulting in a 

gaseous fuel suitable for pipeline distribution. 

Receipts: Deliveries of fuel to an electric plant; purchases 

of fuel; all revenues received by an exporter for the reported 

quantity exported. 

Refill Season: Typically begins in April and lasts through 

the end of September. 

Refinery Gas: Noncondensate gas collected in petroleum 

refineries. 

Repressuring: The injection of gas into oil or gas 

formations to effect greater ultimate recovery. 

Residential Consumption: Gas used in private dwellings, 

including apartments, for heating, air-conditioning, 

cooking, water heating, and other household uses. 

Salt Cavern Storage Field: A sub-surface storage facility 

that is a cavern hollowed out in either a salt “bed” or 

“dome” formation. 

Shale Gas: Natural gas produced from organic (black) 

shale formations. 

Storage Additions/Injections: Volumes of gas injected or 

otherwise added to underground natural gas reservoirs or 

liquefied natural gas storage. 

Storage Withdrawals: Total volume of gas withdrawn 

from underground storage or from liquefied natural gas 

storage over a specified amount of time. 

Supplemental Gaseous Fuels Supplies: Synthetic natural 

gas, propane-air, coke oven gas, refinery gas, biomass gas, 

air injected for Btu stabilization, and manufactured gas 

commingled and distributed with natural gas. 

Synthetic Natural Gas (SNG): (Also referred to as substitute 

natural gas) A manufactured product, chemically similar in most 

respects to natural gas, resulting from the conversion or 

reforming of hydrocarbons that may easily be substituted for or 

interchanged with pipeline-quality natural gas. 

Therm: One hundred thousand (100,000) Btu. 

Total Storage Field Capacity: The maximum volume of 

base and working gas that can be stored in an underground 

storage facility in accordance with its design, which 

comprises the physical characteristics of the reservoir, 

installed equipment, and operating procedures particular to 

the site. 

Transmission (of natural gas): Gas physically transferred 

and delivered from a source or sources of supply to one or 

more delivery points. 

Transported gas: Natural gas physically delivered to a 

building by a local utility, but not purchased from that 

utility. A separate transaction is made to purchase the 

volume of gas, and the utility is paid for the use of its 

pipeline to deliver the gas. 

Unaccounted for (natural gas): Represents the difference 

between the sum of the components of natural gas supply 

and the sum of components of natural gas disposition, as 

reported by survey respondents. These differences may be 

due to quantities lost or to the effects of differences in 
Energy Information Administration/Natural Gas Annual 2009 185

company accounting systems in terms of scope and 

definition. A positive “unaccounted for” volume means that 

supply exceeds disposition by that amount. A negative 

“unaccounted for” volume means that supply is less than 

disposition. See also “Balancing Item.” 

Underground Gas Storage: The use of sub-surface 

facilities for storing gas that has been transferred from its 

original location. The facilities are usually hollowed-out 

salt domes, natural geological reservoirs (depleted oil or gas 

fields) or water-bearing sands topped by an impermeable 

cap rock (aquifer). 

Unit Value, Consumption: Total price per specified unit, 

including all taxes, at the point of consumption. 

Unit Value, Wellhead: The wellhead sales price, including 

charges for natural gas plant liquids subsequently removed 

from the gas, gathering and compression charges, and State 

production, severance, and/or similar charges. 

Vehicle Fuel Consumption: Natural gas (compressed or 

liquefied) used as vehicle fuel. 

Vented Gas: Gas released into the air on the production 

site or at processing plants. 

Wellhead Price: Price of natural gas calculated by dividing 

the total reported value at the wellhead by the total quantity 

produced as reported by the appropriate agencies of 

individual producing States and the U.S. Bureau of Ocean 

Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement. The 

price includes all costs prior to shipment from the lease, 

including gathering and compression costs, in addition to 

State production, severance, and similar charges. 

Working Gas Capacity: The presently developed 

maximum capacity of gas in the reservoir that is in addition 

to the base gas.
