   SECAUCUS, NJ (DTN) -- North American energy drilling activity increased by 
10 rigs this week, according to Baker Hughes' weekly rigs report released 
Friday (6/12).

   The regional rig count for the week ended June 12 stood at 742, compared to 
732 in the week prior.

   Year-on-year, rigs for Canada and the U.S. combined were also up 49 than the 
693 actively deployed in the same week of 2025.

   This week's rig changes were driven entirely by gains in Canada, which saw 
an 11-rig increase, offsetting a one-rig decline in the U.S.

   As a result, Canada's tally stood at 180, while the U.S. count adjusted to 
562.

   In the United States, oil rigs increased by two to 433. Conversely, the gas 
rig count dropped by three to 121, and miscellaneous rigs remained unchanged at 
eight.

   By trajectory, U.S. horizontal rigs stood at 478 and directional rigs at 69, 
after dropping by three rigs and adding five, respectively. Vertical rigs fell 
by two to 11.
