The link below points to an APRIL 2011 article ...

http://www.theinfomine.com/2011/08/27/utica-shale-a-major-oil-disco...

 

The two maps in the article indicate that most of Vinton county has ...

a) immature oil (nott good)

b) very thin utica layer (not good)

 

 These maps are best guess estimates and are subject to change as new wells are drilled.

 

 The eastern portion of Vinton county could be somewhat promising.

 

 The Utica Well drilling operations should progress west through Morgan, Washington and Athens counties to Vinton County. I see no Horizontal drilling activity in Morgan, Washington or Athens counties to date. Maybe later this year (2012) or next year (2013) for those counties. I am thinking, Vinton County will not see a Utica Drilling rig until late 2013 or even 2014, if at all.

Another Utica 2012 Map of the Initial Shale "Play" Area  vs. the New Shale "Play" area is attached.

The Initial Shale Pay map was much more positive for Vinton County.

The New Shale Play map is not very positive for Vinton County.
