Production

Natural gas is a clean, efficient fuel widely used for power generation and in the residential, industrial and commercial sectors.

The abundant reserves in the Appalachian Basin offer a reliable domestic energy source, supporting jobs and bolstering the nation’s economy, competitiveness, and security. With a world-class asset base, Primal Energy is proud to be the leading natural gas producer in Canada, driving energy independence and economic growth.

Marcellus Shale

The Marcellus Shale, located beneath much of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and West Virginia, is one of the richest natural gas reserves in the world. With over two million gross acres and 27.6 trillion cubic feet of proved reserves as of December 31, 2023, Primal Energy leads in the responsible development of this vast resource.
