CONSOL Energy has drilled two of an anticipated six pads and 47 wells on its Pittsburgh International Airport project, which it began earlier this year. As of mid-June,
CONSOL was fracturing wells on the first pad while it drilled on the third pad. The wells
are targeting the wet-gas Marcellus Shale.

Airport Project

CONSOL Energy, which is one of the
largest leaseholders in the Appalachian
Basin, began a Marcellus drilling project
at Pittsburgh International Airport earlier this year.
"We have completed drilling the first

two pads and are fracturing the first pad,
which should be completed in late second
quarter," outlined Vice President of Operations Craig Neal in June.
"A third pad is partially drilled," he
added. "We have drilled two Upper Devonian laterals-one Burkett and one
Rhinestreet-off a Marcellus pad, demon-

strating this stacked pay opportunity."
When completed, Neal says, the Pittsburgh airport project will include six
pads and 47 wells as it is currently contemplated for the Marcellus. "We recognize
great potential from stacked pays in the
Upper Devonian and Utica, both of which
could greatly add to our final well count
at the Airport," he comments.
MarkWest Energy Partners is providing midstream and processing service to
the project, according to Neal.
Although a few more permits are required to drill at an airport, Neal says that
hasn't been a problem. "There are more permits involved because the Federal Aviation
Administration has authority," he relates.
"We had to undertake an environmental assessment, but our company's operational,
safety and environmental standards are high,
so operational changes were not required.
Of course, security is higher."
He says the Utica formation underlies
the Marcellus Shale wet gas formation at
the airport, but CONSOL's initial permits
don't include the Utica.
Stacked Pays

While CONSOL isn't currently targeting the Utica in its airport project, it cer-
