Roughly, yes. Actually it is slightly more. A cubic foot of natural gas has approximately 1000 btus of heat energy when burned.

Figures range as high as 1017 btu/cu.ft. based on the proportions of the mixed gases, primarily methane and propane, which have different heating values. The more propane the more heat in a cubic foot.

A generalization made by gas distributors is that a hundred cubic feet [ccf] is equal to one therm [ 100,000 btu] of heat.
