Across the cases we explored, we project production from the Appalachian Basin in the mid-Atlantic and Ohio region will increasingly meet growing demand on the Gulf Coast in the South Central region, driven largely by increasing liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. The economics of increased production in the Appalachian Basin are more favorable by 2030, and our model shows natural gas transiting through the Eastern Midwest region on the way to the Gulf Coast.     <\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/detail.php?id=65824\" class=\"link-button\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More \u203a<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tags: &#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg=natural gas\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">natural gas<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= AEO (Annual Energy Outlook)\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AEO (Annual Energy Outlook)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= forecasts\/projections\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">forecasts\/projections<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= production\/supply\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">production\/supply<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= consumption\/demand\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">consumption\/demand<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= exports\/imports\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">exports\/imports<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= LNG (liquefied natural gas)\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LNG (liquefied natural gas)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= Henry Hub\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Henry Hub<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= prices\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">prices<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= Marcellus\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Marcellus<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= Permian\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Permian<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= Haynesville\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Haynesville<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= Gulf Coast\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gulf Coast<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/index.php?tg= map\" class=\"title_case\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">map<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIn-brief analysis\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJul 28, 2025<\/p>\n<p data-type=\"inbrief\">&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/todayinenergy\/images\/2025.07.28\/main.svg\" alt=\"U.S. crude oil production\"\/> &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Crude oil production from onshore federal lands has increased in recent years as a result of significant growth in drilling activity and operations.
