The responsible development of clean-burning natural gas from the Marcellus Shale continues to reach record levels, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) latest monthly drilling productivity report.

At current production levels, the Marcellus Shale is on track to produce 25 percent of America’s natural gas demand in 2015.

In 2008, Pennsylvania only produced 25 percent of the Commonwealth’s natural gas needs.
