LNG production plant planned near Ohio, Pa. on river
Saturday, November 1, 2014
According to Pittsburgh Business Times, Marcellus Marketing, Inc. is planning to build a liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facility near the Ohio River.
The location has yet to be disclosed, but the plant would produce 600,000 gallons of natural gas per day. LNG is commonly used for 18-wheelers, trains, river towboats, mining equipment and gas drilling equipment. The LNG would be transported via barges on the Ohio, Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers.
From Pittsburgh Business Times:
“As envisioned, the LNG plant would have rail access and two river docks for fueling for towboats and loading “bunker barges,” which are essentially floating fuel tanks.”

What are mineral rights?
Mineral rights are the rights of the owner of the property to mine or produce any resources below the surface of the property. Mineral rights are different from surface rights.
Will I get free natural gas if I allow fracking on my property?
Maybe. It depends on your particular lease agreement. Some companies allow property owners a yearly free gas allowance. But, the process of connecting your property to the gas source may be more complicated. Some companies will provide a hookup, others require the landowner to provide one.
