Natural gas plays a key role in our nation’s clean energy future. Recent advances in drilling technologies—including horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing—have made vast reserves of natural gas economically recoverable in the US. Responsible development of America’s oil and gas resources offers important economic, energy security, and environmental benefits. Hydraulic fracturing is a well stimulation technique used to maximize production of oil and natural gas in unconventional reservoirs, such as shale, coalbeds, and tight sands. During hydraulic fracturing, specially engineered fluids containing chemical additives and proppant are pumped under high pressure into the well to create and hold open fractures...

The southwest states of Arizona and New Mexico are energy rich, particularly New Mexico. Data is presented establishing the reigions position with respect to coal, oil, gas and uranium resources. Further, this status is reflected in current patterns of energy production, data on which are presented. Additionally, price information is presented which explains, in part, current energy production patterns in the region.
