EOG Continues Testing Utica Wells, Tries 700-Foot Spacing

EOG Resources, one of the largest oil and gas drillers in the U.S. (with international operations in Trinidad and China), owns nearly a half million acres of leases in the Ohio Utica.

As part of the company’s second quarter 2024 update, Jeff Leitzell, EOG's Chief Operating Officer (COO) said the company added another 10,000 acres of leases to its Utica portfolio during 2Q (now at 445,000 acres). He also said the company is currently focusing on 225,000 acres that are in the "volatile oil window" of the Utica.
