This area sits upon the Trenton Black River. It is where the oil en got their start, or so I've been told. Rockefellers? Anyway google it and you can find out about it.

There is a well in Tioga County listed as gas and oil per PA DEP site permit. Of course western PA is full of surface type oil wells.

I went on the site again, and all the wells around me are listed as oil and gas. Is that possible or is it just the way they list it. I live in the Marshlands in Tioga County. There are a ton of wells being dug around me. Ultra is the one doing all the drilling here.

I believe there is a study done by the state , indicating that trenton wells completed with the right tchniques will make oil.  I think  in eastern stuben county.   I have studied oil windows in several states.
