Chesapeake producing 37 percent of Ohio’s Utica output
Wednesday, September 2, 2015
Columbus Business First reports that Chesapeake Energy Corp. is leading the way in Ohio in terms of natural gas production.
In Ohio’s Utica Shale, Chesapeake produced 83.2 billion cubic feet of the state’s total 222 billion cubic feet of natural gas during the second quarter. The company’s biggest well is located in Carroll County and produced 824.3 million cubic feet of natural gas during the second quarter.
During the second quarter, Chesapeake operated 491 of 978 total producing Utica wells in Ohio. However, Chesapeake is poised to sell some of its holdings, so its not clear how much longer the company will have the largest output of all of the Utica’s production companies.
