The active US rig count fell by double digits last week, with Oklahoma taking the biggest hit.
The state, which is home to the Anadarko basin, shed 10 rigs last week for a total of 66 in all, according to the latest tally from oilfield services firm Baker Hughes.
The Anadarko basin has seen a steady decline in activity in recent months as investors across US oil and gas plays pressure operators to prioritise capital discipline over growth.
