Aside from the abundance of oil reserves in the said state, natural gas production from this state make up for 25 percent of the nation’s supply.

Aside from that, the state also has vast petroleum and natural gas reserves, either onshore or offshore. In terms of oil production, it is fourth in the entire country. Kansas, on the other hand, is 8^th in the oil production as well as natural gas production in America. Since 1999, the average monthly rate of oil production is about 2.8 million barrels. The natural gas production per month is about 32 billion cubic feet.

In Wyoming, petroleum production in 2007 was around 53,400,000 barrels and the figure ranked fifth in the entire country. Oklahoma, meanwhile, is the 3^rd largest natural gas producer, 5^th largest oil producer, 2^nd in active drilling rigs, and 5^th in crude oil reserves.
