Form EIA-914 Monthly Natural Gas Production Report
Data Files Background and Methodology Form and Instructions
Released: October 31, 2005Next Release: November 30, 2005 
This is the second release of monthly natural gas gross withdrawals estimated from data collected on the EIA-914 survey. These data are not yet official EIA data. After monthly natural gas production volumes based on the EIA-914 data have completed the final testing and approval process, they are expected to replace EIA's current natural gas production data series and become the official EIA natural gas monthly production data series. Estimates for monthly natural gas gross withdrawals from the EIA-914 survey for January through August 2005 are provided below. Data presented are gross withdrawals measured in billions of cubic feet per day and percent change from the previous month for eight areas. All estimates are made using the adjusted ratio estimate method, which is explained in the Background and Methodology report. Readers are encouraged to review this report to better understand all aspects of the EIA-914 survey. The associated data files contain initial and revised production estimates for each month (revisions are based on company resubmissions and late reports), response rates by month, and comparisons of results using two different estimation methodologies: (1) the adjusted ratio estimation method used in the draft tables below, and (2) a traditional ratio estimation method.

1 The estimates are based on the adjusted ratio method, explained in the Background and Methodology report.
2 Texas gross withdrawals data do not include CO2 production associated with injection projects. These data will be discussed in a future article.
R=Revised data. The EIA-914 revision policy is to revise the prior month's data when the latest month's data is released. Revision policy.
