According to a report in March, 2009, Tulsa, Oklahoma-based Samson Investment Company (aka Samson Resources) is drilling a well targeted at the Marcellus shale on the Paul Menhorn farm near Berlin in south central Pennsylvania's rural Somerset County.

An April, 2009 report indicated that Samson is drilling five wells altogether in the southern part of the County. Once the wells are drilled, the company plans further testing.

Samson was reported in September, 2009 as owner of Marcellus shale drilling rights in western Maryland amounting to:

• 50,000 acres in Garrett County, east of Accident, MD; and
• 20,000 acres in Allegany County, west of Cumberland.

The company had planned to submit applications for drilling permits to drill four exploratory wells five miles apart to test the Marcellus interval in late September, 2009. These wells were expected to take 25 to 50 days to drill. Should the test wells be successful, the company planned to undertake an expanded drilling program during 2010.

Steve Trujillo is Samson's Marcellus Shale Engineering Manager in Maryland and Pennsylvania.
