Jul 18, 2012
The United States holds the world's largest estimated recoverable reserves of coal and is a net exporter of coal. In 2011, our nation's coal mines produced more than a billion short tons of coal, and more than 90% of this coal was used by U.S. power plants to generate electricity.

Short-Term Energy Outlook - Market Prices and Uncertainty Report
Jul 10, 2012
Prices: Crude oil futures prices continued their downward trend for the first half of June but rebounded over the week from June 29 to July 5. Both crude oil benchmarks are currently close to their settlement prices at the beginning of June (Figure 1). The outcome from the European Union summit, which alleviated some short-term fears of a banking crisis, held on June 29 has contributed to the recent rise in oil prices. Reports that Saudi Arabia is beginning to cut back production could also be contributing to the recent price increases.
Short-Term Energy Outlook
Jul 10, 2012
EIA projects the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil spot price to average about $88 per barrel over the second half of 2012 and the U.S. refiner acquisition cost (RAC) of crude oil to average $93 per barrel, both about $7 per barrel lower than last month's Outlook. EIA expects WTI and RAC crude oil prices to remain roughly at these second half levels in 2013. Beginning in this month's Outlook, EIA is also providing a forecast of Brent crude oil spot prices (see Brent Crude Oil Spot Price Added to Forecast), which are expected to average $106 per barrel for 2012 and $98 per barrel in 2013. These price forecasts assume that world oil-consumption-weighted real gross domestic product (GDP) grows by 2.9 percent in both 2012 and 2013.
Natural Gas Year-In-Review
Jul 10, 2012
Natural gas production grew by 7.9 percent in 2011, with large gains in onshore production offsetting continuing declines in the Gulf of Mexico. Production grew despite a year over year decline in prices. Growth in the electric power and industrial sectors drove overall increases in total consumption. Strength in domestic supplies, as well as mild weather in the fourth quarter of the year, reduced the need for pipeline imports, while pipeline exports from the U.S. to Mexico increased substantially.
What is shale gas and why is it important?
Jul 9, 2012
Shale gas refers to natural gas that is trapped within shale formations. Shales are fine-grained sedimentary rocks that can be rich sources of petroleum and natural gas. Over the past decade, the combination of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing has allowed access to large volumes of shale gas that were previously uneconomical to produce.

Annual Coal Report - 2010 Final (Revised)
Jul 3, 2012
Provides information about U.S. coal production, number of mines, prices, productivity, employment, productive capacity, and recoverable reserves to a wide audience, including Congress, Federal and State agencies, the coal industry, and the general public. U.S. coal production, employment, and productivity are based on the U.S. Department of Labor’s Mine Safety and Health Administration’s Form 7000-2, “Quarterly Mine Employment and Coal Production Report.” Prices, recoverable reserves, and productive capacity are based on EIA’s annual survey form, EIA-7A, “Coal Production and Preparation Report.” Please note that data have been revised for 2010 receipts, consumption, stocks, and average price data for U.S. manufacturing, as well as data reported for Texas and the West South Central Census Division, as applicable to this report. All data for 2010 and prior years are final.
