Natural Gas

Michigan's natural gas supply is abundant, reliable, economical, and available from many suppliers. 

The state's unique geology and geography combine to provide some of North America's most abundant and economical natural gas. It is a continental storage hub, with over 650 billion cubic feet of cyclic storage capacity in geological formations – more than any other state – ensuring continued supplies during high usage periods in the winter. In addition, a mid-continent location and proximity to Canada facilitate a pipeline network that interconnects gas production facilities in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, the Gulf of Mexico and Canada. 

  • Michigan is the nation's 11th-largest gas production state.   
  • 25% of natural gas needs are supplied in-state.   
  • In-state natural gas production for 2003 was 231 billion cubic feet.
