Abstract
Implementations of a method of calculating a county-level consumption of natural gas may include providing county-level natural gas production data for a plurality of counties to a database from a data repository; removing from an analysis, using a processor, all areas of a first county of the plurality of counties that do not include a natural gas utility; and using the processor, the database, and the county-level natural gas production data, executing a regression with at least two geographical characteristics of the first county to determine a natural gas consumption within the first county. The method may also include using the processor, repeating for each county of the plurality of counties to determine the natural gas consumption for each of the plurality of counties.
