Natural gas production
Visual Capitalist's bar chart drew 25.2K views on X: 1.1x its typical post and #54 of 133 Visual Capitalist charts we track by views. Read Oct 10, 2026.
Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania together form the world’s third-largest natural gas-producing region 💨
Why it spread
It spread because it hit a hot topic that week and came from an independent author, drawing 25,201 views, 154 likes, 41 reposts, 5 quotes, and 40 saves.
What worked
- The post text frames Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania as the world's third-largest natural gas-producing region, which makes a regional story feel globally significant.
- The chart is a bar ranking of top natural gas producing countries, a familiar form that is easy to read and share.
- It is branded, shows a source line, and was made in partnership with ShaleCresUSA, which adds credibility and reach.
What to borrow
We could take a hot topic and reframe our own regional data as a global ranking, using a simple bar chart with a clear source line and a partner mention.
Careful
Do not over-read the quote rate or source reach as proof of design quality, and do not assume the same framing will work without a hot topic and an independent author.
