11、n Expenditures, 2015. 102 viiiGENERAL The American Gas Association assumed its present status as a gas utility industry trade association in 1918, after a merger of two predecessor organizations. Today it renders assistance to the gas utility industry and provides an advocacy platform for local dist

12、ribution companies, so that the industry may serve its customers more efficiently. The Association recognizes the need for factual information regarding the gas industry for the use, not only of industry organizations, but also interested outside publics. Its statistical efforts are a vital part of

13、this function, and the publication of Gas Facts is one result of these efforts. This publication contains detailed statistics for 2015 and summary statistics for prior years for the gas utility industry which by definition, consists of the companies engaged in natural gas distribution and transmissi

14、on. The publication also contains relevant data on the gas producing segment of the industry. Gas volumes are expressed in millions of cubic feet (at 14.73 psi and 60F unless otherwise noted) and in British thermal units (Btu) to permit direct comparison with other energy data. A conversion table is

15、 included as Appendix B. Throughout the publication numbers may not add up to total due to independent rounding. The user should be aware that a large transportation market has developed, which directly impacts gas utility sales quantities, revenues and number of customers. Although total pipeline t

16、hroughput may remain the same, as transportation volumes to end-users increase, gas utility sales quantities to end-users will decrease. Data presented in Gas Facts, broken down by company type, are not necessarily comparable from year to year. Acquisitions, mergers and corporate reorganizations con

17、tinue to cause the number of companies in any given category to vary from year to year. Some of these changes are significant and can cause a dramatic shift in the data reported for a specific category from prior years. In addition, data and resulting estimates are attributed to utility industry seg

18、ments in Gas Facts as distribution, transmission or integrated, based not only on company operating revenues (see glossary) but also on how the company submitted information in the Uniform Statistical Report (USR). For example, if a company submits data under one corporate name, such as qualifying r

19、evenue, for distribution and transmission activities combined, then it is placed in the integrated category. However, if a large company submits data for its distribution companies separate from transmission companies, no effort is made to recombine the data to produce an integrated result. Distribu

20、tion data in this case is attributed to the distribution segment and transmission data to the transmission segment. ixSOURCES OF INFORMATION Most of the information contained in this volume is developed from data forms contained in the Uniform Statistical Report and other sources such as the Energy

21、Information Administration (EIA) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Tables presented in Gas Facts use data primarily from distribution companies submitting a Uniform Statistical Report (USR) and estimates for those companies not reporting based on recent historical experience. Esti

22、mates of proved reserves of natural gas are taken from the U.S. Department of Energy report U.S. Crude Oil, Natural Gas and Natural Gas Liquids Reserves. Data for gas spaceheating customers were taken from the AGA Residential Natural Gas Market Survey. Changes in the quantity and format of data repo

23、rted to AGA, the Energy Information Administration, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and others have influenced the quality and type of tables that can be constructed from the available sources. As a result, tables in this edition have been modified or eliminated compared with previous Gas F

24、acts editions based on judgements regarding sample size and data quality. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Our thanks go to those companies participating in the Uniform Statistical Report data gathering effort. Their cooperation and support are the essential elements to making this publication a primary source of g

25、as utility industry data. Also greatly appreciated is the cooperation of the public and governmental agencies credited in Gas Facts tables. Key contributions to this publication have been made by the Director, Statistical Services, Paul Pierson; Statistical Consultant, Kelly Hopkins; and Specialist,

The United States imported 2.7 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in 2015, primari

27、ly from Canada. Delivery The U.S. natural gas industry had 2.51 million miles of pipeline including distribution, services, transmission, and gathering lines in place in 2015. Sales Gas utility sales decreased 7.8 percent in 2015 to 7,602 trillion Btu. Residential sales decreased 8.7 percent from 20

28、14 levels. Commercial sales decreased 7.9 percent. Industrial sales decreased 5.8 percent. Prices The average retail natural gas price decreased 11.0 percent in 2015 compared to 2014. The average residential price decreased 6.2 percent. Average commercial prices decreased 10.2 percent. Average indus

29、trial prices decreased 30.1 percent. 2TABLE 1-1 GAS UTILITY INDUSTRY SALES CUSTOMERS, SALES VOLUMES, REVENUES AND PRICES BY CLASS OF SERVICE 2014 and 2015 2014 2015 PercentageChange END-USERSTOTALa64,893 65,612 + 1.1 Residential 60,223 60,922 1.2 Commercial 4,534 4,559 + 0.6 Industrial 122 120 - 1.5
