Natural Gas Company Boosts Production

With the help of the Marcellus Shale natural gas wells, Range Resources boosted their second quarter natural gas production by close to 10 percent.  The gas company based in Fort Worth, Texas, produced an average of 472 million cubic feet of natural gas per day, largely driven by production from the Marcellus shale region.

Range Resources focuses their drilling on “unconventional resource plays targeting shales, coal bed methane and tight oil and gas reservoirs.”  The company began drilling in the Marcellus Shale region, which covers parts of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia and Virginia, in 2004, and by mid-2009, Range Resources completed their  50^thhorizontal well in the Marcellus Shale.  To date, there are 146 wells drilled in the region.

Range Resources estimates that the Marcellus wells are as good as, and potentially better than the production in the North Texas Barnett Shale.
