EQT Sets New U.S. Onshore Record for Deepest & Longest Shale Well
EQT Corporation, the largest driller in the Marcellus/Utica (based on M-U production), recently achieved two records with the same Marcellus well. EQT drilled not only the "deepest" shale well in the continental U.S. (by "measured depth"), but also the longest horizontal shale well (by lateral length). EQT's Longwell 9H well, located in Wetzel County, West Virginia (near the Pennsylvania border), eclipses a record set by Expand Energy in 2025 in Marshall County, WV.To view this content, log into your member account.
