Texas
> Largest industry: Oil and gas extraction
> Industry GDP: $123.9 billion
> Industry GDP as pct. of total: 8.9%
> Industry private workforce: 103,838
The large oil and gas extraction industry in Texas demonstrates the importance of geography for many state economies, as Kohli observed. In four states, the energy industry contributes the most to GDP, and only one of these states — Alaska — does not share a border with Texas. With a $123.9 billion oil and gas extraction industry, it is no wonder Texas is the nation’s leading energy producer. According to the EIA, the state also leads the nation in energy consumption, accounting for more than one-eighth of all energy consumed in the country.
