Chenango

From Wikimarcellus

Chenango County is located in central New York. It is bordered on the south by Broome County, and on the north by Madison County.

According to an August, 2009 report virtually no Marcellus shale drilling had so far taken place within the county, although the southeastern portion of the county appears to be prospective for the Marcellus shale formation. There had been only one vertical Marcellus well drilled. It was located on a hilltop near the town of Oxford in the south-central section of the county.

Norse Energy had been producing from several Herkimer formation wells in the northern section of the county. It had also leased right-of-way and planned to build a pipeline south through Chenango County to the Millennium Pipeline. Norse is known to have drilled a few Marcellus shale wells, but apparently these are all located elsewhere.
