Baker Hughes reported on Friday that the number of oil and gas rigs in the United States rose by 6 to 384.
The oil and gas rig count has risen for ten weeks in a row for a total gain of 74.
The oil rig count increased by 6 this week, while the number of gas rigs remained unchanged. The number of miscellaneous rigs also remained unchanged.
