Panhandle of West Virginia Marcellus Shale

  

 

MARCELLUS AIR:
PANHANDLE W.V.

Panhandle of West Virginia Marcellus Shale photographs showing gas drilling and production from a birdseye view. Drilling locations, frac impoundments, compressor stations, gas processing and pipelines. See Bethany, West Liberty, Marshall County and the West Virginia shale gas play from the air!

 
Marcellus Air : Panhandle WV
now includes two flights over West Virginia's shale gas drilling. Some photos were taken of the panhandle of West Virginia during October 2011, mostly around Ohio and Marshall counties.

Photos of drilling in the West Liberty and Bethany areas, in Ohio County and Brooke County, were added following a February 2012 flight and include approximate GPS coordinates.

The best way to see West Virginia's shale is from the air!
