Wyoming’s major geologic basins contain some of the largest fossil fuel deposits in the United States. Wyoming’s estimated recoverable coal reserves are second only to Montana’s, its dry natural gas reserves are second only to those in Texas, and its crude oil reserves are among the largest in the Nation. Wyoming has over a dozen of the Nation’s largest oil and gas fields, including the Pinedale and Jonah natural gas fields, which rank among the top 10 in the country.
