How Does Conventional/Unconventional Drilling Differ in PA?
Before the Marcellus Shale was actively drilled in Pennsylvania, starting with Range Resources in 2004, there was natural gas drilling in the state for many years. In fact, although about 5,000 Marcellus Shale or “deep” natural gas wells have been drilled in the past eight years, there are about 50,000 conventional or “shallow” natural gas…

PA Production Data Now Complete – Astonishing Results
Late last week Pennsylvania released figures for natural gas production in the state for the first half of this year (see this MDN story).

PA DEP Secretary John Hanger Summons Marcellus Shale Drilling Companies to a May Meeting
The PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is summoning all Marcellus gas drillers operating in Pennsylvania to meeting.
