With recent drilling it has come to the Survey's attention that Marcellus Shale may exist west of the current 0 thickness line. We will be examining data to determine what changes may be needed to the thickness map.

1 Marcellus WellsA completed Marcellus well has one or more zones in the Marcellus that have been prepared for production--the well may or may not be producing currently; a permitted Marcellus well is one with aMarcellus/Devonian shale or deeper target.

Explanations

3 OnondagaThe Onondaga Limestone and equivalent units underlie the Marcellus Shale.The top of the Onondaga and equivalents is approximately equal to the base of the Marcellus.

2 "Marcellus" Thickness"Marcellus" thickness data do not represent the entire thickness of the Marcellus Shale but a subset of it. Specifically, these data represent an interval of organic-rich shale with high gamma-ray readings within the Hamilton Group, as described by Schwietering, WVGES OF8608 (1980).
