|Notes:
		 Prior to 2001, the well counts for Federal Offshore Gulf of Mexico were included in the well counts for Alabama, Louisiana, and Texas. Well data derived from Enverus, except for Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky; for these states, data are from World Oil and consist of all gas wells and all oil wells. As of report year 2021, well count data have been discontinued. The latest natural gas well count data can be found at U.S. Oil and Natural Gas Wells by Production Rate.
