Preface 

The Natural Gas Monthly (NGM) highlights activities, events, and analyses of interest to public and private

sector organizations associated with the natural gas industry.    Volume and price data are presented each

month for natural gas production, distribution, consumption, and interstate pipeline activities.    Producer‐ related activities and underground storage data are also reported.

The data in this publication are collected on surveys conducted by the EIA to fulfill its responsibilities for

gathering and reporting energy data.  Geographic coverage is the 50 States and the District of Columbia.

Explanatory Notes supplement the information found in tables of the report.    A description of the data

collection surveys that support the NGM is provided in the Data Sources section.  A glossary of the terms used

in this report is also provided to assist readers in understanding the data presented in this publication.

All natural gas volumes are reported at a pressure base of 14.73 pounds per square inch absolute (psia) and at

60 degrees Fahrenheit.    Cubic feet are converted to cubic meters by applying a factor of 0.02831685.

    a Monthly natural gas plant liquid (NGPL) production, gaseous equivalent, is derived from sample data reported by gas processing plants on Form EIA‐816, “Monthly Natural

Gas Liquids Report,” and Form EIA‐64A, “Annual Report of the Origin of Natural Gas Liquids Production.”

    b Equal to marketed production minus NGPL production.

    c Supplemental gaseous fuels data are collected only on an annual basis except for the Dakota Gasification Co. coal gasification facility which provides data each month. The ratio of

annual supplemental fuels (excluding Dakota Gasification Co.) to the sum of dry gas production, net imports, and net withdrawals from storage is calculated. This ratio is applied to the

monthly sum of these three elements. The Dakota Gasification Co. monthly value is added to the result to produce the monthly supplemental fuels estimate.

    d Monthly and annual data for 2009 through 2012 include underground storage and liquefied natural gas storage. Data for January 2013 forward include underground storage

only. See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 5, for discussion of computation procedures.

    e Represents quantities lost and imbalances in data due to differences among data sources.  Net imports and balancing item for 2009 excludes net intransit deliveries. These net

intransit deliveries were (in billion cubic feet): 57 for 2012; 37 for 2011; ‐9 for 2010;  and ‐14 for 2009.  See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 7, for full discussion.

    fConsists of pipeline fuel use, lease and plant fuel use, vehicle fuel, and deliveries to consuming sectors as shown in Table 2.

   R  Revised data.

   E   Estimated data.

   *   Volume is less than 500,000 cubic feet

   RE  Revised estimated data.

   Notes:  Data for 2009 through 2011 are final.  All other data are preliminary unless otherwise indicated. Geographic coverage is the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Totals

may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding.

    a Plant fuel data and lease fuel data are collected only annually. Monthly lease and plant fuel use is estimated from monthly marketed production by assuming that the

preceding annual percentage remains constant for the next 12 months.

    b Published pipeline and distribution use data are based on reports collected on an annual basis. Monthly pipeline and distribution use data are estimated from monthly total

consumption (excluding pipeline and distribution use) by assuming that the preceding annual percentage remains constant for the next 12 months. Beginning in 2009, pipeline and

distribution use volumes now include Line Loss, defined as known volumes of natural gas that were the result of leaks, damage, accidents, migration, and/or blow down.

    c

Heating value is the average number of British thermal units per cubic foot of natural gas as reported on EIA‐857 and EIA‐176.  See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 11, for further

information.

         a The natural gas plant liquid (NGPL) composite spot price, shown in dollars per million Btu ($/MMBtu), is derived from daily Bloomberg spot price data for natural

gas plant liquids at Mont Belvieu, Texas, weighted by gas processing plant production volumes of each product as reported on Form EIA‐816, “Monthly Natural Gas

Liquids Report.” See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 9, for full discussion.          b The natural gas spot price, shown in $/MMBtu, represents the average of the daily closing spot prices for natural gas at the Henry Hub in Louisiana, taken from

Thompson Reuters. See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 9, for full discussion.          c

Percentage of total deliveries represented by onsystem sales (see Figure 6). See Table 24 for state data.    d

The electric power sector comprises electricity‐only and combined‐heat‐and‐power plants within the NAICS 22 category whose primary business is to sell electricity,

or electricity and heat, to the public.  Data include nonregulated members of the electric power sector.

    a EIA has 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.

    b For the "Other" area the point of origin for volumes of imported LNG was unassigned in the reports to the Office of Fossil Energy.

    Notes: Gas in storage at the end of a reporting period may not equal the quantity derived by adding or subtracting net injections or withdrawals during the period to the

quantity of gas in storage at the beginning of the period. This is due to changes in the quantities of native gas included in base gas and/or losses in base gas due to migration from

storage reservoirs. Total gas capacity may not equal the sum of base gas and working gas capacity, owing to changes in operational conditions. Totals may not equal sum of

components because of independent rounding. The EIA publishes weekly estimates of working gas in underground storage by geographical regions developed by the American Gas

Association (AGA) when they published similar weekly estimates. The AGA Producing Region is Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, New Mexico, Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama and

Mississippi; the Eastern Consuming Region is all states east of the Mississippi River less Mississippi and Alabama, plus Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri; and the Western Consuming

Region is all states west of the Mississippi River less the Producing Region and Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri.  Beginning with January 2013 data, Form EIA‐191A is no longer used as

a source for capacity data. Capacity data are now collected from the Form EIA‐191M. Change in Working Gas from Same Period, Previous Year, includes data for Alaska which had

no working gas recorded for periods prior to January 2013.

    Notes:  Geographic coverage is the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Average prices for gas delivered to residential consumers reflect onsystem sales prices, with

the following exceptions: Through 2010, in the states of Florida, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, residential price data were

based on total gas deliveries; in 2011, however, residential price data are based on total gas deliveries in the states of Georgia, New York and Ohio only. Published prices

are considered to be total prices paid by end‐users per thousand cubic feet of natural gas in the respective sectors, inclusive of all tax, delivery, commodity, demand and

other charges.  Prices are in nominal dollars. See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 8, for discussion of computations and revision policy. See Table 24 for data on onsystem

sales expressed as a percentage of total residential, total commercial, and total industrial deliveries.

    Notes: Geographic coverage is the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Average prices for gas delivered to commercial consumers reflect onsystem sales prices, with

the following exceptions: Through 2010, in the states of Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the District of Columbia,

commercial price data were based on total gas deliveries. In 2011, however, commercial price data are based on total gas deliveries in the states of Georgia, New York and

Ohio only. Published prices are considered to be total prices paid by end‐users per thousand cubic feet of natural gas in the respective sectors, inclusive of all tax, delivery,

commodity, demand and other charges. Prices are in nominal dollars. See Appendix A, Explanatory Note 8, for discussion of computations and revision policy. See Table 24

for data on onsystem sales expressed as a percentage of total residential, total commercial, and total industrial deliveries.

   Notes:  Volumes of natural gas reported for the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors in this publication include data for both sales and deliveries for the account

of others. This table shows the percentage of the total state volume that represents natural gas sales to the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. This information

may be helpful in evaluating residential, commercial, and industrial price data which are based on sales data only.  Through 2010, in the states of Florida, Georgia,

Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, residential price data were based on total gas deliveries, and, in the states of Florida, Georgia, Maryland,

Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, commercial price data were based on total gas deliveries. In 2011, however, residential and

commercial price data are based on total gas deliveries in the states of Georgia, New York and Ohio only. See Appendix C, Statistical Considerations, for a discussion of the

computation of natural gas prices.

Appendix A

Explanatory Notes

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) publishes monthly data for the supply and disposition of natural gas in

the United States in the Natural Gas Monthly (NGM). The information in this Appendix is provided to assist users in

understanding the monthly data. Table A1 lists the methodologies for deriving the data to be published for the most

recent monthsshown in Tables 1 and 2.  The following explanatory notes describe sources for all NGM tables.

Note 1.  Production

Monthly Data

Estimates of gross withdrawals and marketed production for the Lower 48 states are derived from submission

by well operators on the monthly Form EIA‐914, “Monthly Natural Gas Production Report.” Production volumes

are collected specifically for Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Wyoming, New Mexico, the Federal Offshore Gulf of

Mexico, and the sum of all other states (except Alaska). (See the EIA‐914 Methodology for an explanation of the

procedure for estimating state gross withdrawals from reported volumes.) Gross withdrawals for the state of

Alaska are obtained from summary reports posted by the state of Alaska, Oil and Gas Conservation Commission.

Marketed production is estimated from gross withdrawals using historical relationships between the two. All

monthly data are considered preliminary up to the cover year of the most recent Natural Gas Annual.  

Annual Data

Prior to 2011, natural gas production data were collected from 32 gas‐producing states on the voluntary Form

EIA‐895.  The form requested data on gross withdrawals, gas vented and flared, repressuring, nonhydrocarbon

gases removed, fuel used on leases, marketed production (wet), and NGPL production (formerly known as

extraction loss).  Beginning in 2011, EIA has obtained similar data directly from the states.  The Bureau of Safety

& Environmental Enforcement also supplies data on the quantity and value of natural gas production from the

Federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Note 2. Natural Gas Plant Liquid (NGPL) Production

Monthly Data

Monthly NGPL production is reported by gas processing plants on Form EIA‐816, “Monthly Natural Gas Liquids

Report.”  These liquid volumes are converted to natural gas equivalents using factors consistent with industry

standards published by the Gas Processors Association, and instructions to respondents to EIA’s annual survey of

gas processing plants, Form EIA‐64A, “Annual Report of the Origin of Natural Gas Liquids Production.”  Separate

values are used for ethane, propane, isobutane, and normal butane.  A value for “natural gasoline,” reflecting

pentanes and higher, is used.  A separate value for isopentane is also used when reporting facilities have the

capability to separate out and market isopentane on its own.    The value for natural gasoline also includes

isopentane ‐ this value is used when estimating the volumetric equivalent of “pentanes plus” produced.  These

factors all are for “real” rather than “ideal” gas volumes stated at a pressure of 14.73 pounds per square inch

absolute (psia) at 60 degrees Fahrenheit on a dry basis.

Annual Data

The final NGPL production estimates, published in the NGA, incorporate information received from gas

processing plants on Form EIA‐64A, “Annual Report of the Origin of Natural Gas Liquids Production.” Monthly

NGPL production estimates are recalibrated to equate to this total.   

Note 3.  Supplemental Gaseous Fuels

Monthly Data

All monthly data are considered preliminary until after the publication of the NGA for the year in which the

report month falls. Monthly estimates are based on the annual ratio of supplemental gaseous fuels to the sum

of dry gas production, net imports, and net withdrawals from storage. This ratio is applied to the monthly sum of

these three elements to compute a monthly supplemental gaseous fuels figure.

Monthly data are revised after publication of the NGA.  Final monthly data are estimated based on the revised

annual ratio of supplemental gaseous fuels to the sum of dry gas production, net imports, and net withdrawals
September 2014

U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly   95

from storage. This revised ratio is applied to the revised monthly sum of these three supply elements to

compute final monthly data.  

Annual Data

Annual data on supplemental gaseous fuel supply are reported on Form EIA‐176, “Annual Report of Natural and

Supplemental Gas Supply and Disposition.”

Note 4.  Imports and Exports

Monthly and Annual Data – Imports

Monthly import and export data are from Form FE‐746R, “Import and Export of Natural Gas,” from the Office of

Fossil Energy, U.S. Department of Energy.  Annual data are the aggregate of the monthly data for that year.

Note 5.  Natural Gas Storage

Note that final monthly and annual storage levels, additions, and withdrawal data shown in Table 1 include both

underground and liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage in the lower 48 states. Beginning in January 2013, U.S.

totals include Alaska data.

Monthly Data

Preliminary and final monthly data on underground storage levels, additions, and withdrawals are from the

Form EIA‐191, “Monthly Underground Gas Storage Report.” All operators of underground storage fields

complete the survey.

Estimates of monthly LNG additions and withdrawals are calculated by applying the proportion of each month’s

net injections to underground storage during the injection season to annual LNG additions and the proportion of

each month’s net withdrawals from underground storage during the withdrawal season to annual LNG

withdrawals.

There are three principal types of underground storage facilities in operation in the United States today: salt

caverns (caverns hollowed out in salt “bed” or “dome” formations), depleted fields (depleted reservoirs in oil

and/or gas fields), and aquifer reservoirs (water‐only reservoirs conditioned to hold natural gas). A storage

facility’s daily deliverability or withdrawal capability is the amount of gas that can be withdrawn from it in a 24‐

hour period.  Salt cavern storage facilities generally have high deliverability because all of the working gas in a

given facility can be withdrawn in a relatively short period of time.   (A typical salt cavern cycle is 10 days to

deplete working gas, and 20 days to refill working gas.)  By contrast, depleted field and aquifer reservoirs are

designed and operated to withdraw all working gas over the course of an entire heating season (about 150

days).    Further, while both traditional and salt cavern facilities can be switched from withdrawal to injection

operations during the heating season, this is usually more quickly and easily done in salt cavern facilities,

reflecting their greater operational flexibility.
September 2014

96   U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly

Annual Data

Final annual data on additions and withdrawals from underground storage facilities are the sum of the monthly

data from the EIA‐191.  

Annual data on LNG additions and withdrawals are from the EIA‐176.

Note 6.  Consumption

Monthly Data

All monthly data are considered preliminary until after publication of the NGA.

Annual Data

All annual data are from the NGA. Total consumption is the sum of the components of consumption listed below.  

Monthly data are revised after publication of the NGA.  

Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Consumption

Preliminary estimates of monthly deliveries of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial consumers in 50

states are based on data reported on Form EIA‐857, “Monthly Report of Natural Gas Purchases and Deliveries.”  See

Appendix C, “Statistical Considerations,” for a detailed explanation of sample selection and estimation procedures.  

Monthly data for a given year are revised after the publication of the NGA to correct for any sampling errors.  Final

monthly data are estimated by allocating annual consumption data from the Form EIA‐176 to each month in proportion

to monthly volumesreported in Form EIA‐857.

Vehicle Fuel Use

Monthly U.S. total estimates of natural gas (compressed or liquefied) used as vehicle fuel are derived from an annual

estimate of vehicle fuel use provided by the Office of Electricity, Renewables, and Uranium Statistics of EIA.

Electric Power Consumption

Monthly estimates of deliveries of natural gas to electric power producers are derived from data submitted by the

sample of electric power producers reporting monthly on Form EIA‐923, "Power Plant Operations Report," which

replaced Form EIA‐906, "Power Plant Report,” and Form EIA‐920, "Combined Heat and Power Plant Report." The

estimates reported in the NGM represent gas delivered to electricity‐only plants (utility and independent power

producers) and combined heat and power (CHP) plants whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and

heat, to the public.  For a discussion of these estimates,see the Electric Power Monthly.

Pipeline and Distribution Use

Preliminary monthly estimates are based on the pipeline fuel consumption as an annual percentage of total

consumption from the previous year’s Form EIA‐176.  This percentage is applied to each month’s sum of total deliveries

pluslease and plant fuel to compute the monthly estimate.   
September 2014

U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly   97

Monthly data are revised after the publication of the NGA.  Final monthly data are based on the revised annual ratio of

pipeline fuel consumption to total consumption from the Form EIA‐176.  This ratio is applied to each month’s revised

sum of total deliveries pluslease and plant fuel to compute final monthly pipeline fuel consumption estimates.

Lease and Plant Fuel Consumption

Preliminary monthly data are estimated based on lease and plant fuel consumption as an annual percentage of

marketed production. This percentage is applied to each month’s marketed production figure to compute estimated

lease and plant fuel consumption.

Monthly data are revised after publication of the NGA.  Final monthly plant fuel data are based on a revised annual ratio

of plant fuel consumption to marketed production from Form EIA‐176. This ratio is applied to each month’s revised

marketed production figure to compute final monthly plant fuel consumption estimates.  Final monthly lease data are

collected on the Form EIA‐895 and estimates from the Form EIA‐176.  See the NGA for a complete discussion of this

process.

Note 7.  Balancing Item

The balancing item category represents the difference 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 data reporting problems or to

issuesin survey coverage.  Preliminary monthly data in the balancing item category are calculated by subtracting dry gas

production, withdrawals from storage, supplemental gaseous fuels, and imports from total disposition.  The balancing

item may reflect problemsin any of the surveys comprising natural gassupply or disposition.

Reporting problems include differences due to the net result of conversions of flow data metered at varying

temperatures 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 cycles and calendar periods; and imbalances

resulting from the merger of data reporting systems, which vary in scope, format, definitions, and type of respondents.  

Survey coverage problemsinclude incomplete survey frames or problemsin sampling design.

Annual data are from the NGA.  For an explanation of the methodology used in calculating the annual balancing item,

see the NGA.  

Note 8.  Average Price of Deliveries to Consumers

For most states, price data are representative of prices for gas sold and delivered to residential, commercial, and

industrial consumers by local distribution companies.  Published prices are considered to be total prices paid by end‐

users per thousand cubic feet of natural gas in the respective sectors, inclusive of all tax, delivery, commodity, demand

and other charges.    In the states of Georgia, Maryland, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, the residential and

commercialsector pricesreported in the NGM include data on prices of gassold to customersin those sectors by energy

marketers.  These latter data are collected on Form EIA‐910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer Survey.” In 2008 through

2010, in the states of Florida, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, residential

price data were based on total gas deliveries, and, in the states of Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, New York, Ohio,

Pennsylvania, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, commercial price data were based on total gas deliveries. Beginning

in 2011, however, residential and commercial price data are based on total gas deliveries in the states of Georgia, New
September 2014

98   U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly

York and Ohio only.  Residential and commercial sector prices reported in the NGM include data on prices of gas sold to

customersin those states by energy marketers as data quality becomes acceptable.  Except for these states, none of the

prices reflect average prices of natural gas transported to consumersfor the account of third parties.  Table 24 indicates

the percentage of total deliveriesincluded in residential, commercial, and industrial price estimates.

Prices of natural gas delivered to the electric powersector are derived from data reported on the Form EIA‐923, "Power

Plant Operations Report." Pricesfrom these surveys are also published in the Electric Power Monthly.

Note 9.  NGPL Composite Spot Price and Natural Gas Spot Price

Monthly Data

The natural gas plant liquids (NGPL) composite price published in the NGM is derived from spot price data at

Mont Belvieu, Texas, from Bloomberg.   Daily closing spot prices for ethane, propane, butane, isobutane, and

natural gasoline (pentanes plus) are each averaged into a monthly series, then weighted according to the

portion of a representative natural gas plant liquids barrel that they occupy.    Volume weights are updated

monthly using the latest available data collected on Form EIA‐816, Monthly Natural Gas Liquids Report.    The

NGPL composite price excludes natural gas liquids produced at crude oil refineries.

Bloomberg spot price data for each natural gas liquids (NGL) product are in cents per gallon.  EIA converts these

prices into dollars per barrel.  Using heat conversion factors from Table A1 in the appendix of the Annual Energy

Review, “Approximate Heat Content of Petroleum Products,” the prices are converted to dollars per million

British thermal units (MMBtu) for each natural gas liquid.   

The NGPL composite spot price is calculated as:

ܲൌ෍ቀ݌∗ ௜

௜ݒ

ܸቁ

where:

P = the NGPL composite spot price in dollars per MMBtu,

pi = the monthly spot price for natural gas liquids product i in dollars per MMBtu,

V = the total volume of natural gas plant liquids produced in the report month,

vi = the monthly production volume for natural gas plant liquids product i.

The natural gas spot price is the simple average of the daily closing spot prices for natural gas at the Henry Hub

in Louisiana.  This series is published by Thompson Reuters and republished by EIA with permission.   

Annual Data

The annual NGPL composite spot price represents the average cost of a representative barrel of NGPL in a given

year.    This annual figure is calculated as the total cost of all NGPL products sold, as priced at Mont Belvieu,

divided by the total volume of all NGPL products produced for the year derived by summing the months of

natural gas plant liquids production data collected on Form EIA‐816.  

The annual natural gas spot price represents the average of daily closing spot prices for dry natural gas at the

Henry Hub in Louisiana in a given year.

Note 10.  Heating Degree‐Days

Degree‐days are relative measurements of outdoor air temperature.  Heating degree‐days are deviations of the mean

daily temperature below 65 degrees Fahrenheit.  A weather station recording a mean daily temperature of 40 degrees

Fahrenheit would report 25 heating degree‐days.  There are several degree‐day databases maintained by the National

Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The information published in the NGM, is developed by the National Weather

Service Climate Analysis Center, Camp Springs, Maryland.   

The data are available weekly with monthly summaries and are based on mean daily temperatures recorded at about

200 major weather stations around the country.  The temperature information recorded at these weather stations is

used to calculate statewide degree‐day averages weighted by gas home customers.    The state figures are then

aggregated into Census Divisions and into the national average.  Table 26 of this report presents the Heating Degree

data, and isincluded in the Decemberthrough April NGM publications.

Note 11.  Heat Content

The Form EIA‐857 collects volume and cost data on natural gas delivered to residential, commercial, and industrial

consumers, as shown in Tables 2 and 25 of the NGM. Data are reported by a sample of natural gas companies

that deliver to consumers in the United States. Respondents are instructed to calculate the average heat content

(Btu) by summing the total Btu delivered each month (volume delivered directly to consumers ) multiplied by average

Btu content per unit volume and then dividing by the total volume delivered directly to consumers during that month.

The average Btu content for each month should be that used for billing purposes whether billing was on a therm

(100,000 Btu) or dekatherm (1,000,000 Btu) basis. The value for heat content is expected to be in the range of 900 to

1200 Btu/cubic foot.

Data Sources

Note 1.  Production

Monthly Data

The data in this publication are taken from survey reports collected by the Energy Information Administration

(EIA), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), and the Office of Fossil Energy of the U.S. Department

of Energy (DOE). The EIA is the independent statistical and analytical agency within the DOE. The FERC is an

independent regulatory commission within the DOE that has jurisdiction primarily in the regulation of electric

utilities and the interstate natural gas industry. The Office of Fossil Energy has the authority under Section 3 of

the Natural Gas Act of 1938 to grant authorizations for the import and export of natural gas.

Data are collected from annual, quarterly, and monthly surveys. The primary annual report is the Form EIA‐176,

“Annual Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas Supply and Disposition,” a mandatory survey of all companies

that deliver natural gas to consumers or that transport gas across state lines. Another annual report, Form EIA‐ 

895, “Annual Quantity and Value of Natural Gas Production Report,” was completed by agencies in the 32 gas

producing states through 2010.  EIA obtained similar data directly from the states beginning in 2011.  The EIA‐

895 Form collected volumes of natural gas gross withdrawals, those vented and flared, returned to formation, or

used on the lease, and the volume of nonhydrocarbons removed from the produced stream. It also collected

information on the value of marketed production. The Office of Fossil Energy provides monthly and quarterly

files of data on imports and exports. The monthly reports include surveys of the natural gas industry, and of the

electric power industry. The monthly natural gas industry surveys are: the Form EIA‐191, filed by companies that

operate underground storage facilities in the Lower 48 states; the Form EIA‐914, filed by a sample of companies

that operate wells producing natural gas; the Form EIA‐857, filed by a sample of companies that deliver natural

gas to consumers; and the Form EIA‐910, filed by natural gas marketers in select states. The electric power

industry source for both price and consumption data is Form EIA‐923, "Power Plant Operations Report."

Responses to all current surveys are mandatory. A description of the survey respondents, reporting

requirements, and processing of the data is given on the following pages for each of the natural gas surveys.

Copies of the forms and instructions are available on the EIA website. Further information about Electric Power

forms can be found in Appendix C of the Electric Power Monthly.

Form EIA‐176, “Annual Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas Supply and

Disposition”

The Form EIA‐176 is mailed to all identified interstate and 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 deliver natural gas directly to consumers

(including their own industrial facilities); and/or companies that transport gas across a state border through field

or gathering facilities. Each company is required to file if it meets the survey specifications.  The mailing in 2011
September 2014

102   U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly

for report year 2010 totaled approximately 2,079 questionnaire packages.  While final nonresponse rates vary,

the rates have averaged about 1 percent in recent years.

The Form EIA‐176 is a multi‐line, multi‐page schedule for reporting all supplies of natural gas and supplemental

gaseous fuels and their disposition within the state indicated.   Respondents file completed forms with EIA in

Washington, DC.  Data for the report year are due by March 1st.  Extensions of the filing deadline for up to 30

days are granted to any respondent upon request.  

All natural gas and supplemental gaseous fuels volumes are reported on a physical custody basis in thousand

cubic feet (Mcf), and dollar values are reported to the nearest whole dollar.  All volumes are reported at 14.73

pounds per square inch absolute pressure (psia) and 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Data from Form EIA‐176 are also published in the Natural Gas Annual (NGA) and are available from the Form

EIA‐176 Query system posted on the EIA website.  Data reported on this form are not considered proprietary.  

Response to the form is mandatory.

Form EIA‐895, “Monthly and Annual Quantity and Value of Natural Gas Report”

Monthly production data were collected through Form EIA‐895, “Monthly and Annual Quantity and Value of

Natural Gas Report,” from January 1995 through December 2006. The form was designed to provide a standard

reporting system, to the extent possible, for the natural gas data reported by the states. Data were not

considered proprietary. All gas‐producing states and the Bureau of Safety & Environmental Enforcement (and

predecessor agencies) were requested to report on the Form EIA‐895, a voluntary report that was used through

2010.

In 1996, an annual schedule was added to the voluntary Form EIA‐895 to replace a prior annual production

form. This annual schedule, designated Form EIA‐895, continued to be used for collecting production data from

states through 2010.  In 2011, annual gas production data were obtained directly from publicly available state

data.  

The commercial recovery of methane from coalbeds and shale plays contributes a significant amount to the

production totals in a number of states. Gross production quantities of natural gas from coalbed methane seams

and shale plays (in thousand cubic feet) are obtained from LCI Energy Insight (LCI).  In 2007‐2009, an average

daily production rate, available for each year, from coalbed methane and shale were used to allocate production

data across months depending on the number of days in each month.  For 2010 forward, monthly coalbed and

shale data from LCI were developed with the following method:

[Quarterly Daily Shale Production Rate (MMcf/day) x Number of Days in Quarter x 1000] x [Month Gross

Production Volume / Quarter Gross Production Volume]

Beginning in 2010, for Pennsylvania, the quarterly shale data from LCI was also used to create a gross production

monthly pattern.   Data for coalbed and shale gas wells are not shown in the Natural Gas Monthly; however,

coalbed and shale breakouts are available via the Natural Gas Navigator.  
September 2014

U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly   103

The EIA‐895 also collected data on 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 as well as the monthly volume and value of marketed production. From 2011

forward, these data were obtained directly from the states or, where it was not available, estimated by EIA.  The

annual schedule of the EIA‐895 also collected data on the number of producing gas wells, the production of

natural gas including gross withdrawals from both gas and oil 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; marketed production; the value of marketed production; and

quantity of marketed production (value based).  From 2011 forward, the same items were obtained directly

from the states or estimated by EIA where it was not available.  From 2011 forward, the number of producing

wells is from World Oil Magazine.  All volumes are in thousand cubic feet at the states’ standard pressure base

and at 60 degrees Fahrenheit. All dollar values are reported in thousands.  

Form EIA‐914, "Monthly Natural Gas Production Report"

The Form EIA‐914 is a sample survey of well operators in the Lower 48 states and six states or regions (Texas,

Oklahoma, Louisiana, Wyoming, New Mexico, and the Federal Offshore Gulf of Mexico).  Current estimates of

monthly production are based on this survey.  The survey collects natural gas production volume information on

a monthly basis, aggregated to the areas specifically requested.  Two volumes are requested from respondents

for each area in which they operate wells: (1) “gross withdrawals (wet),” which is the full‐bore well stream gas

minus lease condensate, oil, and water; and (2) “natural gas lease production,” which is a measure indicating the

net amount of produced gas leaving the lease to go to natural gas processing plants or directly to end‐users.  

Estimates of gross withdrawals in a state are made from the reported gross withdrawal volumes. Marketed

production is estimated from gross withdrawals using state estimates of repressuring, vented and flared, and

nonhydrocarbon gases removed.

The EIA‐914 survey form is a single‐page document, similar in format to other surveys in EIA’s Office of Oil, Gas,

and Coal Supply Statistics.  The form was designed based on direct input from potential respondents during pre‐

survey design visits and the quality and usability of the survey instrument were established with cognitive

testing conducted by survey methodologists in EIA’s Statistics and Methods Group. Based on the test results, the

form includes some imbedded instructions, intended to help responses complete the form without the need to

refer to instructions located elsewhere.

A full description of the survey methodology may be found at the EIA‐914 Methodology.

Form EIA‐191, “Underground Natural Gas Storage Report”

The Form EIA‐191, “Monthly Underground Natural Gas Storage Report,” is completed by approximately 131

companies that operate underground facilities in the United States (prior to 2013, Alaska data were not included

in the EIA‐191 survey).    The final monthly and annual response rates are 100 percent.    The Form EIA‐191

monthly schedule contains current month data on the total quantities of gas in storage, injections and

withdrawals, the location (including state and county, field, reservoir) and peak day withdrawals during the

reporting period. The annual schedule contains type of facility, storage field capacity, maximum deliverability
September 2014

104   U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly

and pipelines to which each field is connected.  The annual schedule for the prior year is filed with the December

submission.   

Collection of the survey is on a custody basis.  Information requested must be provided within 20 days after the

last day of each month.  Twelve reports are required per calendar year. Respondents are required to indicate

whether the data reported are actual or estimated.    For most of the estimated filings, the actual data or

necessary revisions are submitted on separate forms for each month. Actual data on natural gas injections and

withdrawals from underground storage are based on metered quantities.  Data on quantities of gas in storage

and on storage capacity represent, in part, reservoir engineering evaluations.  All volumes are reported at 14.73

psia and 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

The Monthly Energy Review contains data from the Form EIA‐191 survey.

“Quarterly Natural Gas Import and Export Sales and Price Report”

Beginning in 1995, import and export data have been taken from the “Quarterly Natural Gas Import and Export

Sales and Price Report.” This report is prepared by the Office of Fossil Energy, U.S. Department of Energy, based

on information submitted by all firms having authorization to import or export natural gas.  The Office of Fossil

Energy provides authorizations for imports or exports under Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act of 1938.  

All companies are required, as a condition of their authorizations, to file monthly and quarterly reports with the

Office of Fossil Energy.  The data are reported at a monthly level of detail.

Form EIA‐857, “Monthly Report of Natural Gas Purchases and Deliveries to

Consumers”  

Monthly price and volume data on gas deliveries are collected on the Form EIA‐857 from a sample of

respondents representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia.  Response to Form EIA‐857 is mandatory

and data are considered proprietary.  Completed forms are required to be submitted to EIA on or before the

30th day after the end of the report month.

A sample of approximately 310 natural gas companies, including interstate pipelines, intrastate pipelines, and

local distribution companies, report to the survey.  The sample was selected independently for each of the 50

states and the District of Columbia from a frame consisting of all respondents to Form EIA‐176 who reported

deliveries of natural gas to consumers in the residential, commercial, or industrial sectors.    Each selected

company is required to complete and file the Form EIA‐857 monthly.  Each month about half the responses are

received by the due date although response rates by first publication of the relevant month are approximately

95 percent. When a response is extremely late, volumes are imputed, as described in Appendix C, “Statistical

Considerations.”  When the company’s submission is eventually received, the submitted data are entered into

the data system and used for subsequent processing and revisions.

Form EIA‐857 data are used to estimate monthly sales of natural gas (volume and price) by state and monthly

deliveries of natural gas on behalf of others (volume) by state to three consumer sectors  ‐‐residential,

commercial, and industrial.  Data from Form EIA‐857 are also used to calculate the citygate price.  See Appendix
September 2014

U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly   105

C for a discussion of the sample design and estimation procedures.  Monthly prices of natural gas to the electric

power sector are calculated from data reported on Form EIA‐923, "Electric Power Plant Operations." Data from

Form EIA‐857 are also used to calculate the citygate price.  

Form EIA‐910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer Survey”

The Form EIA‐910, “Monthly Natural Gas Marketer Survey,” collects information on natural gas sales from

marketers in selected states (Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New

York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, and the District of Columbia) that have active customer choice

programs.  Beginning in 2011, the EIA‐910 is collected only in Georgia, New York and Ohio. 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 service, 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‐857 for the states where the EIA‐910

data are collected as data quality becomes acceptable.   Response to the EIA‐910 is mandatory and data are

considered proprietary.

Approximately 100 natural gas marketers currently 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.

All natural gas volumes are reported in thousand cubic feet at 14.73 psia at 60 degrees Fahrenheit, and dollar

values are reported as whole dollar.

Appendix C 

Statistical Considerations

The monthly volumes and prices of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial consumers presented in

this report by State are estimated from data reported on the Form EIA‐857, “Monthly Report of Natural Gas

Purchases and Deliveries to Consumers.”   

Monthly prices in select States are supplemented with data from the Form EIA‐910, “Monthly Natural Gas

Marketer Survey.”  (See Appendix B, “Data Sources,” for a description of these Forms.)     

A description of the sample design and the estimation procedures is given below.

Sample Design

The Form EIA‐857 implements a monthly sample survey of companies delivering natural gas to consumers.  It

includes inter‐ and intrastate pipeline companies and local distribution companies.  

The survey provides data that are used each month to estimate the volume of natural gas delivered and the

price for onsystem sales of natural gas by State to three consumer sectors—residential, commercial, and

industrial.   

Monthly deliveries and prices of natural gas to the electric power sector are reported on the Form EIA‐923,

“Power Plant Operations Report.”

Sample Universe.    The sample in use for 2012 was selected from a universe of 1,539 companies.    These

companies were respondents to the Form EIA‐176, “Annual Report of Natural and Supplemental Gas Supply and

Disposition,” for reporting year 2010, who reported sales or deliveries to consumers in the residential,

commercial, or industrial sectors.  (See Appendix B for a description of the Form EIA‐176.)

Sampling Plan.  Beginning in 2012, the EIA changed its sample design from single stage probability‐proportional‐

to‐size (“PPS”) to a cut off sample in order to reduce respondent burden and decrease processing costs.  The

skewness of the volume of reported natural gas within the primary traditional sectors of interest for the EIA‐857,

residential, commercial, and industrial, is sufficiently large to enable a cut‐off design that will maintain estimates

of similar quality as under the previous PPS sample design.

One of the purposes of the sample is to provide a ratio useful for scaling the monthly state sector volumes in the

sample up to precise estimates of the actual state sector monthly volumes.    In cases where at most two

suppliers in a State service a particular sector, all suppliers are included in the cut off sample.  In States with

more than two suppliers in a sector, the cut off sample is constructed by adding suppliers in descending order of

volume until the change in the ratio of interest is considered statistically insignificant.

The single stage PPS sample design typically yielded approximately 390 respondents for the EIA‐857 during

2009‐2011.    The cutoff sample approach as described above reduces this figure to approximately 310

respondents.

Estimation Procedures

Estimates of Volumes.  To estimate the total gas sales and deliveries for the State, a ratio estimator is applied to

the reported volumes in each State for the sampled companies.

Ratio estimators are calculated for each consumer sector — residential, commercial, and industrial — in each

State where companies are sampled using annual data from the most recent submission of Form EIA‐176.

The classical ratio estimator (CRE) for the volume of gas in a State for consumer sector j is:

or

where:

Vj = the estimate of monthly gas volumes in a State for consumer sector j,

yij = the monthly volume within a State for sector j and company i,  

xij = the annual volume within a State for sector j and company i,  

For most respondents, the estimation of residential and commercial consumption requires one additional step

than the industrial sector.  In this extra step the company level reported volumes are adjusted using sendout.  

Sendout, which was added to Form EIA‐857 for the August 2010 report month, is the total volume of gas

dispatched for delivery during a calendar month.    It should be noted that the adjusted volumes for the

residential and commercial sector are used in equation 2.

The adjustment is implemented by taking reported sendout and removing gas that is consumed in company

operations and distribution use as well as gas delivered to electric power, industrial, and vehicle use sectors.  

The remaining gas is allocated to the residential and commercial sectors proportionally based on reported totals

for the report month.  For a small number of companies, the adjustment to sendout is applied to all sectors in

order to better represent their billing practices.   In these cases, sendout is applied to all end‐use sectors

proportionally instead of just to residential and commercial.

The formulas for adjusting the reported residential and commercial volumes at the company level are:

where:

(1)
September 2014

U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly   109

Radj = sendout adjusted residential volume,

Cadj = sendout adjusted commercial volume,

SO = sendout volume,

Oth = ratio of annual distribution use and vehicle fuel to total deliveries,

EP = reported electric power volume,

IN = reported industrial volume,

R = reported residential volume,

C = reported commercial volume.

Computation of Natural Gas Prices.   The natural gas volumes that are included in the computation of prices

represent only those volumes associated with natural gas sales by natural gas companies except as explained

below.

The price of natural gas within a State for sector j is calculated as follows:

where:

Pj = the average price for gas sales within a State for consumer sector j,

Rj = the reported revenue from natural gas sales within a State for consumer sector j,

Vj = the reported volume of natural gas sales within a State for consumer sector j.

All average prices are weighted by their corresponding sales volume estimates when national average prices are

computed.

For select States (Georgia, New York and Ohio), the monthly average prices of natural gas to residential and

commercial consumers are based on total sales (sales by local distribution companies and natural gas

marketers).  See the Form EIA‐910 description in Appendix B, “Data Sources,” for details.

Volumes of gas delivered for the account of others to these consumer sectors are not included in the State or

national average prices except in these States.

The price of natural gas in the residential and commercial sectors where EIA‐910 data are used is calculated as

for Georgia, and,

for New York and Ohio, where:

Pc = the combined average price for gas sales by local distribution companies and marketers within the State in

sector s (residential or commercial),

Rs = the reported revenue from natural gas sales by local distribution companies within the State in sector s

(residential or commercial),

Vs = the reported volume of natural gas sales by local distribution companies within the State in sector s

(residential or commercial),

Vt = the reported volume of natural gas transported by local distribution companies for marketers within the

State in sector s (residential or commercial),

Rms = the reported revenue from natural gas sales by marketers within the State in sector s (residential or

commercial),

Vms = the reported volume of natural gas sales by a marketer within the State in sector s (residential or

commercial),

Rt = the reported revenue from natural gas transported by local distribution companies for marketers within the

State in sector s (residential or commercial).

Table 24 shows the percent of the total State volume that represents volumes from natural gas sales to the

residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.  This table may be helpful in evaluating residential, commercial,

and industrial price data.   

Estimation for Nonrespondents and Edit Failures.    A volume for each delivered and transported consumer

category is imputed for companies that fail to respond in time for inclusion in the published estimates (unit

nonresponse) or for which reported volumes have failed the edit and not been confirmed or corrected (item

nonresponse).   

In the case of unit nonresponse, the imputed volumes for the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors are

derived through a multi‐stage procedure:

(1) Prediction of monthly volumes for the commercial, industrial, and residential sectors within Census Division.  

Census Division refers to the nine divisions into which the U.S. Bureau of the Census groups the 50 States and

the District of Columbia for reporting and analysis purposes.   

For the commercial and residential sectors, the predicted division volume for a month depends on the heating

degree days reported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for that month within

the Census Division as well as a monthly variable that captures historical trends particular to that month.

For the industrial sector, the predicted division volume for a month depends on the same month from the

previous year as well as year‐to‐year differences from the previous months.

The coefficients are estimated via ordinary least squares multiple linear regression.  The source is a database of

monthly sector volumes for the 5 years ending December 31 of the immediately prior calendar year.  Coefficient

estimation is restricted to companies reporting continuously during the 5 years.

(2) Allocating the monthly sector volume for a particular respondent based on the respondent’s share of that

sector volume in the latest Form EIA‐176 survey.  

Once the predicted division volume for a sector is obtained, it is multiplied by an allocation factor to obtain the

imputed sector volume for a respondent.   

The allocation factor is the ratio of that respondent’s sector volume to the total of all such sector volumes as

reported in the latest Form EIA‐176 survey.

(3) The final piece of data to be imputed is sendout.    As reported sendout includes volumes consumed

distributing natural gas as well as deliveries to vehicle fuel, residential, commercial, industrial, and electric

power sectors, the imputation method aggregates estimates for each of these components.    Prior to 2012,

distribution use and vehicle fuel were only collected annually, thus monthly totals were estimated based on

annual ratios against total deliveries.    Industrial and electric power sectors are both calculated using the

industrial method that was previously described.  The estimation of the residential and commercial components

uses a company specific regression model with localized heating degree data.

In the case of item nonresponse for sendout, the residential and commercial sectors default to the reported

values.  Item nonresponse for all other items is handled in the same manner as unit nonresponse.

Estimation of Revenue.    The company’s previous month’s sector‐specific price is multiplied by the

corresponding sales volume to impute revenue for that sector.

Final Revisions

Adjusting Monthly Data to Annual Data.    After the annual data reported on the Form EIA‐176 have been

submitted, edited, and prepared for publication in the Natural Gas Annual (NGA), revisions are made to monthly

data.   

The revisions are made to the volumes and prices of natural gas delivered to consumers that have appeared in

the Natural Gas Monthly (NGM) to match them to the annual values appearing in the Natural Gas Annual.  

The revised monthly estimates allocate the difference between the sum of monthly estimates and the annual

reports, according to the distribution of the estimated values across the months.  

Before the final revisions are made, changes or additions to submitted data received after publication of the

monthly estimate and not sufficiently large to require a revision to be published in the NGM, are used to derive

an updated estimate of monthly consumption and revenues for each State’s residential, commercial, or

industrial natural gas consumption.
  September 2014

112   U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly

For each State, two numbers are revised, the estimated consumption and the estimated price per thousand

cubic feet.  

The formula for revising the estimated consumption is:

where:

V* jm = the final volume estimate for month m in consumer sector j,

V jm = the estimated volume for month m in consumer sector j,

V ja  = the volume for the year reported on Form EIA‐176,

V’jm = the annual sum of estimated monthly volumes.

The price is calculated as described above in the Estimation Procedures section, using the final revised

consumption estimate and a revised revenue estimate.

The formula for revising the estimated revenue is:

where:

R*jm = the final revenue estimate for month m in consumer sector j,

Rjm =  the estimated revenue for month m in consumer sector j,

Rja   = the revenue for the year reported on Form EIA‐176,

R’jm =  the annual sum of estimated monthly revenues.

Revision of Volumes and Prices for Deliveries to Electric Power Sector.  Revisions to monthly deliveries to the

electric power sector are published throughout the year as they become available.

Reliability of Monthly Data

The monthly data published in this report are subject to two sources of error –‐ nonsampling error and sampling

error.  Nonsampling errors occur in the collection and processing of the data.   

See the discussion of the Form EIA‐857 in Appendix B for a description of nonsampling errors for monthly data.  

Sampling error may be defined as the difference between the results obtained from a sample and the results

that a complete enumeration would provide.  The standard error statistic is a measurement of sampling error.

Standard Errors.  A standard error of an estimate is a statistical measure that indicates how the estimate from

the sample compares to the result from a complete enumeration.   

The standard errors for monthly natural gas volume and price estimates by State are given in Table C1.  They are

constructed so that over the long run the true value is within two standard errors of its estimate 95% of the

time. For volume estimates, the relative standard error (RSE) is published as a percent. Standard errors of prices

are expressed in dollars.  

The relative standard error of a natural gas volume estimate is the square root of the variance of the estimate

divided by the published volume. The formula for calculating the variance of the volume estimate is:

As the price of natural gas is calculated as a quotient of revenue to volume, the standard error of natural gas

prices is derived using the variance properties of a quotient.    The variance of revenue is calculated in the

same manner as the volumes described in equation 8, with revenue substituted for volume.  The formula for

calculating the standard error of the price in equation 4 is:

Var(Vj) = the variance of volume in sector j calculated using equation 8,

Var(Rj) = the variance of revenue in sector j calculated in the same manner as equation 8,

Cov(Vj,Rj) = the covariance between revenue and volume in sector j. The formula for estimating the covariance

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 the difference 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 data reporting or survey

coverage 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 data reporting systems which vary in

scope, format, definitions, and type of respondents.   

Base (Cushion) Gas:    The volume of gas needed as a permanent inventory to maintain adequate reservoir

pressures and deliverability rates throughout the withdrawal season.  All native gas is included in the base gas

volume.  

British Thermal Unit (Btu):  The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 pound of liquid water by

1 degree Fahrenheit at the temperature at which water has its greatest density (approximately 39 degrees

Fahrenheit).

Btu Per Cubic Foot:  The total heating value, expressed in Btu, produced by the combustion, at constant

pressure, of the amount of the gas that would occupy a volume of 1 cubic foot at a temperature of 60 degrees F

if saturated with water vapor and under a pressure equivalent to that of 30 inches of mercury at 32 degrees F

and under standard gravitational force (980.665 cm. per sec. squared) with air of the same temperature and

pressure as the gas, when the products of combustion are cooled to the initial temperature of gas and air when

the water formed by combustion is condensed to the liquid state.(Sometimes called gross heating value or total

heating value.)

Citygate:    A point or measuring station at which a gas distribution company receives gas from a pipeline

company or transmission system.

Commercial Consumption: Gas used by nonmanufacturing establishments or agencies primarily engaged in the

sale of goods or services such as hotels, restaurants, wholesale and retail stores and other service enterprises;

and gas used by local, State and Federal agencies engaged in nonmanufacturing activities.

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG):  Natural gas which is comprised primarily of methane, compressed to a

pressure at or above 2,400 pounds per square inch and stored in special high‐pressure containers. It is used as a

fuel for natural gas powered vehicles.

Depleted Storage Field: A sub‐surface natural geological reservoir, usually a depleted oil or gas field, used for

storing natural gas.

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 natural gas plant liquid production.

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.  

Exports: Natural gas deliveries out of the continental United States (including Alaska) to foreign countries.

Gas Well: A well completed for 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 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 and Plant Fuel: Natural gas used in well, field, lease operations (such as gas used in drilling operations,

heaters, dehydrators, and field compressors) and as fuel in natural gas processing plants.

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG): Natural gas (primarily methane) that has been liquefied by reducing its

temperature to ‐260 degrees Fahrenheit at atmospheric pressure.

U.S. Energy Information Administration   |   Natural Gas Monthly   119

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‐of‐ways) 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."

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 operations.  

Native Gas: Gas in place at the time that a reservoir was converted to use as an underground storage reservoir,

as in contrast to injected gas volumes.

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 Liquids (NGL):  A group of hydrocarbons including ethane, propane, normal butane, isobutane, and

natural gasoline. Generally include natural gas plant liquids and all liquefied refinery gases, except olefins.

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.

Natural Gas Plant Liquids (NGPL): Those hydrocarbons in natural gas that are separated as liquids at natural gas

processing, fractionating, and cycling plants. Products obtained include ethane, liquefied petroleum gases

(propane and butanes), and natural gasoline. Component products may be fractionated or mixed. Lease

condensate and plant condensate are excluded.

Natural Gas Plant Liquids (NGPL) Production: The extraction of gas plant liquids constituents such as ethane,

propane, normal butane, isobutane, and natural gasoline, sometimes referred to as extraction loss. Usually

reported in barrels or gallons, but may be reported in cubic feet for purposes of comparison with dry natural gas

volumes.

Nominal Dollars: A measure used to express nominal price.

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.

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.

Pipeline Fuel: Gas consumed in the operation of pipelines, primarily in compressors.  

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, cooking, water

heating, and other household uses.

Salt Cavern Storage Field:   A storage facility that is a cavern hollowed out in either a “salt bed” or “dome”

formation.

Storage Additions: 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.  

Underground Gas Storage Reservoir Capacity: Interstate company reservoir capacities are those certificated by

FERC.  Independent producer and intrastate company reservoir capacities are reported as developed capacity.  

Vehicle Fuel Consumption:  Natural gas (compressed or liquefied) used as vehicle fuel.

Working (Top Storage) Gas: The volume of gas in an underground storage reservoir above the designed level

of the base.    It may or may not be completely withdrawn during any particular withdrawal season.  

Conditions permitting, the total working capacity could be used more than once during any season.
