[10] Map of Ohio Utica Shale drilling permits and activity by date. [11] [12] In 2011 drilling and permits for drilling in the Utica Shale in Ohio reached record highs ...
The Utica shale is a black shale that dates to the Late Ordovician age. The distribution of this unit is regionally extensive throughout the entire Appalachian basin. Thickness of the Utica Shale in central Ohio is 180 to 230 feet (55 to 70 m) and thickens moving east towards Pennsylvania and New York to be 320 to 350 feet (98 to 107 m) and 350 ...

On May 16, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources finally published 2012 production data for the Utica Shale - a rock formation located thousands of feet below the Marcellus that spans Ohio, New ...
There is a lot of hype surrounding the Utica shale right now. Geologists anticipate the play's energy profile to be similar to the booming Marcellus shale. Companies like Chesapeake Energy that ...
As of April 2024, the Marcellus Shale contained about 120 million barrels of oil, while the Utica Shale contained 2.3 million barrels, according to the United States Geological Survey.
This has greatly increased drilling for dry gas from the Marcellus Formation in eastern Ohio, as far south as Washington County, west to Guernsey County, and north to Lake and Ashtabula Counties. Since 2009, this interest has extended to oil and wet gas production from the Utica Shale , with a western boundary line extending from Erie County ...
Encana focused activities in Cheboygan, Kalkaska, and Missaukee counties in Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula. [5] Natural gas is produced from both Utica and Collingwood shale (called Utica Collingwood). Collingwood is a shaly limestone about 40 feet thick that lies just above the Ordovician Trenton formation. Utica shale overlies the ...
