North America dropped three rigs week on week, according to Baker Hughes’ latest rotary rig count, which was published on October 11.
The U.S. added one rig and Canada dropped four rigs week on week, taking the total North America rig count down to 805, comprising 586 rigs from the U.S. and 219 rigs from Canada, the count outlined.
Of the total U.S. rig count of 586, 567 are classified as land rigs, 18 are categorized as offshore rigs, and one is classified as an inland water rig. The total U.S. rig count is made up of 481 oil rigs, 101 gas rigs, and four miscellaneous rigs, according to Baker Hughes, which showed that this total comprised 519 horizontal rigs, 55 directional rigs, and 12 vertical rigs.
Week on week, the U.S. added one land rig, the count revealed. The country’s oil rig count increased by two, its gas rig count dropped by one, and its miscellaneous rig count remained unchanged during the period, the count highlighted. The directional rig count in the U.S. increased by six week on week, while its horizontal rig count dropped by three and its vertical rig count dropped by two during the same timeframe, the count showed.
Texas added six rigs week on week and Oklahoma added one rig during that period, the count outlined. Louisiana, New Mexico, and Pennsylvania each dropped two rigs week on week, Baker Hughes highlighted.
Canada’s total rig count of 219 is made up of 154 oil rigs and 65 gas rigs, Baker Hughes’ count revealed. The country added two gas rigs and dropped three oil rigs and three miscellaneous rigs week on week, the count showed.
The total North America rig count is down 10 compared to year ago levels, according to Baker Hughes, which showed that the U.S. has cut 36 rigs and Canada has added 26 rigs during the period. The U.S. has dropped 20 oil rigs and 16 gas rigs, while Canada has added 38 oil rigs, and dropped one miscellaneous rig and 11 gas rigs, year on year, the count outlined.
In a research note sent to Rigzone on Friday by the JPM Commodities Research team, J.P. Morgan analysts highlighted that “total U.S. oil and gas rigs rose by one to 586 this week”.
“Oil focused operators rose by two to 481 rigs, after last week’s loss of five. Natural gas–focused rigs fell by one to 101 rigs, after gaining six during the two weeks prior,” they added.
“The rig count in the five major tight oil basins increased by one. The Anadarko and Eagle Ford basins each saw an addition of one rig, which was offset by a loss of one rig in the Niobrara basin, while all other basins remained unchanged,” the analysts continued.
“The overall oil rig count stayed relatively stable during a week when WTI averaged just under $75. Although we do not anticipate a sudden reaction from U.S. operators based on two weeks of favorable pricing, a sustained period in which prices align with our 4Q24 WTI price forecast of $76 is likely to encourage additional rig reactivations by year-end,” the analysts went on to state.
In the note, the J.P. Morgan analysts said they still foresee the potential for U.S. drillers to add 13 more rigs by the end of the year.
