U.S. drillers add oil and gas rigs for second week in three -Baker Hughes

U.S. drillers this week added oil and natural gas rigs for the second time in three weeks as a recent increase in energy prices from coronavirus-linked lows prompted some to return to the wellpad.

The oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, rose by one to 255 in the week to Sep. 18, energy services firm Baker Hughes Co said in its closely followed report on Friday.
