The first successful CBNG wells were drilled in Wyoming in 1987. In Montana, development began in 1997 but ceased soon afterward pending completion of an Environmental Impact Statement. Production began again in late 2003. Through June 1, 2007 there are 17,219 producing CBNG wells and 7,093 shut-in CBNG wells for a total of 24,312 wells just in the Powder River Basin. The current cumulative gas production is 2,474,278,711 MCF or 2.47 Trillion Cubic Feet (TCF).
