WHAT IS UTICA SHALE The Utica Shale lies under most of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia and extends under adjacent parts of Ontario and Quebec in Canada and Kentucky, Maryland, Tennessee, and Virginia in the United States. It occurs in outcrops in the state of New York and in the subsurface in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. It has recently become the target of gas and oil exploration in eastern Ohio and Pennsylvania where it is around 8,000 feet deep. In 2011 drilling and permits for drilling in the Utica Shale in Ohio have reached record highs. It reaches a thickness of up to 1,000 feet (300 m) and can be as thin as 70 feet (20 m) towards the margins of the basin. 250 feet (80 m) are exposed in the type section. Oil and natural gas have been found as of 2011. Exploration companies continue to drill wells in order to determine the potential of the Utica Shale. READ MORE>  | UTICA SHALE IN THE NORTH EAST  |
