Haynesville forecast to lead U.S. shale growth in next two years
U.S. natural gas production will increase by 4.0 billion cubic feet per day by 2027, driven mainly by LNG exports and data center fuel demand in the Haynesville shale.
- In an updated February forecast, the DOE projects Haynesville will supply more than two-thirds of U.S. gas growth, with output expected to rise by 1.6 billion cubic feet per day through 2027.
- Rising LNG exports and data-center demand prompted the DOE to forecast higher output through 2027, expecting prices to climb from $3.52 in 2025 to $4.38 in 2027, with U.S. LNG exports averaging about 18 billion cubic feet per day in Nov. 2025.
- Baker Hughes data for the week ended Feb. 13 shows 52 gas-directed rigs in the Haynesville, while Comstock Resources plans to drill 19 wells in Texas and 47 in Louisiana next year.
- Proximity to LNG export facilities suggests competition for gas between exporters, hyperscalers, and consumers, supported by rising prices and Permian gas throttling, boosting Haynesville activity.
- Looking ahead, Haynesville's geology and the DOE's $4.38 per million BTU forecast support deeper well development through 2027, while regional growth remains significant.
