A recent SNL Financial story, “Monster wells: Range boasts top US shale gas well, Marcellus record-breaker” features Range’s recent record-setting shale well announcements in both the Marcellus and the Utica.
The article states…
Range Resources Corp. indicated that it has drilled the best shale gas well in the country — a Utica Shale well in Washington County, Pa., with an initial production rate of 59 MMcf/d — while at the same time announcing the results of the best Marcellus Shale well to date, a 43.4-MMcfe/d well in Washington County.
Detailing its first-quarter results April 29, Range disclosed an initial production level at the Claysville Sportsman’s Club Unit 11H in December 2014 that surpassed that of the previous No. 1 U.S. shale gas well.”
