Denver, Colorado-based WhitMar Exploration Co. is an independent oil and gas exploration and production company.
According to a September, 2009 report the company had been actively leasing Marcellus shale drilling rights in in northeast Pennsylvania's Luzerne County, home of the city of Wilkes-Barre. WhitMar had leased 22,000 acres in Dallas, Fairmont, Hunlock, Huntington, Lake, Lehman, and Union townships. It's standard offer apparently provided only small sums upfront, but with a contractual obligation to begin applying for permits within one year and start drilling within two.
The company was in the process of undertaking seismic testing for its acreage in the county, and well siting was to be, in part, based upon the results.
