Of the major oil- and gas-producing states, Oklahoma gained two rigs and Colorado, North Dakota and Wyoming picked up one each. California and New Mexico lost one each, Texas and Alaska lost three each, and Louisiana lost seven. The rig counts in Arkansas, Pennsylvania and West Virginia remained unchanged.
The rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981 and bottomed at 488 in 1999.
