The Middle Devonian Marcellus Shale Play has put the Appalachian Basin at the center of a national debate concerning America’s future energy supply. Although it has been received in the region with mixed reviews, this highly organic shale formation has secured itself as a major contributor to the natural gas supply of West Virginia and other states in the Basin. As production continues throughout West Virginia, areas of high production continue to emerge; however, it appears that some of these “sweet spots” may not actually be within the “Marcellus” per se, but rather, in other, overlying Devonian shales.
