SUGAR LAND--November 25, 2014--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The U.S. produced and consumed record levels of natural gas in 2013, according to a recently issued study from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) (Washington, D.C.), the statistical and analytical branch of the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) (Washington, D.C.). That 213-page report, Natural Gas Annual - 2013, also showed gas consumption by the electricity sector fell last year, mainly a function of a 27% increase, nearly $1 per thousand cubic feet, charged to electric generators. The agency also noted that gas exports rose last year for the fifth year in a row, while imports held steady.
