We always knew the Marcellus (and the Utica) are special, but here’s something we didn’t know until today. The Marcellus and the Utica are two of the three largest natural gas fields on the planet. Only the South Pars/North Dome gas field straddling Qatar and Iran holds more natural gas than either the Marcellus or the Utica individually. Together, the M-U actually is the largest gas field in the world! If we had the pipelines in our region to export our gas to other regions of our own country, and pipelines (and plants) to export our more M-U gas to other countries, we have more than enough gas in the M-U to supply the entire U.S. and the world *for decades.* That’s how massive our beloved Marcellus/Utica is.
