EIA pointed to rising gas-to-oil ratios.

More takeaway capacity can make additional production easier to move, but it is not itself proof of new well output or higher exports.","EIA publishes three distinct production measures. Gross withdrawals include the entire wellhead stream. Marketed production subtracts gas used for repressuring, vented and flared gas, and nonhydrocarbon gases removed. Dry production measures consumer-grade natural gas and excludes natural gas plant liquids. EIA said marketed production and dry gas production also reached all-time highs in July.","The distinctions matter to data-centre operators, power generators, pipeline companies and LNG buyers assessing supply. A larger gross flow may be a positive sign for deliverable supply, but processing losses, field use, pipeline constraints and terminal capacity shape the volume that can reach customers. One monthly record alone does not establish a forecast for future prices or a lasting surplus.","Geographic detail matters as well: EIA reports Texas and New Mexico at state level and separately discusses the Permian as an oil-and-gas producing basin.
