Noble Energy’s 2Q12 Results – Marcellus Well Produces 17.9 MMcfd

Noble Energy is a big driller with operations in many locations, including offshore. They released their second quarter results today. Even though their operations are spread around the world, the Marcellus Shale plays in increasingly important role in Noble’s drilling activities. Noble reports drilling a Marcellus well in the second quarter with a lateral of 8,500 feet (over a mile and a half!). That well produced an initial rate of 17.9 million cubic feet of gas per day (MMcfd). Below is the Noble press release. MDN highlights (in yellow) the portions relevant to their Marcellus operations.
