The Intelligencer has an interesting article on drilling activity in the Marcellus Shale in West Virginia (with a side note regarding Ohio). "The Marcellus Shale rush is hitting on the west side of the Ohio River as well. Information provided by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources shows there are currently 12 completed Marcellus wells in Belmont County, with eight in Jefferson County and seven in Monroe County. Permits to drill even more Marcellus wells also have been issued for these counties."
