By Diana Marchese, Trumbull County Recorder With new technology enabling the drilling of Marcellus and U ca Shale, Ohio s oil and gas leasing has become a hot subject. Ohio Recorders have seen the arrival of many new people in their record rooms in search of oil and gas leases. The Marcellus Shale is an ancient shale forma on that lies 8,000 to 15,000 feet under eastern Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New York. Experts es mate that its methane resources could supply the United States needs for natural gas and methane for the next 40 years. U ca Shale is another shale forma on found underneath the Marcellus and holds similar reserves. Ohio is rich in U ca Shale. Previously it was too expensive and too difficult to mine these two forma ons but new technology and rising natural gas and oil prices have made it economically feasible. Energy companies have been collec ng data about these forma ons for years. Oil and gas leases are worth significantly more money these days. In the past, leases brought as li le as $5 per acre per year. Today, that amount should be in the hundreds or thousands of dollars over the life of the lease. Recently, Trumbull County received a phone call from a tle company and was asked if the office would be willing to record documents rela ng to a merger with Atlas Energy. These documents included the names on every Atlas Energy lease in the State of Ohio. Trumbull County recorded the merger and the recording fee totaled $9, Let s hope that our county land owners and the local economy will benefit from this new venture.
