Change in U.S. natural gas storage capacity by storage region (2024-2025)

Data source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Form EIA-191, Monthly Underground Natural Gas Storage Report
Note: Measures of capacity reflect final revised values as published in the Underground Natural Gas Working Storage Capacity Report.

Underground working natural gas storage capacity in the Lower 48 states increased slightly in 2025, according to our latest data, with growth concentrated in the South Central and Mountain regions.
