Abstract

In the Tri-State area, comprising east-central Ohio, southwestern Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia, between the highly folded structures (Chestnut Ridge anticline) on the east, and the area in which the Oriskany sand becomes patchy in its distribution on the west, seven gas pools have been found in the Oriskany sand on low-relief domes. The history of discovery, stratigraphy, structure of the surface rocks, structure of the Berea sand, convergence between the Berea and Oriskany sands, and structure on the Oriskany sand, together with development, operation, and reservoir data, are discussed for the three most important of these pools, which are Blackhawk, located in South Beaver Township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and the Knox and Round Knob located in Knox and adison townships, Columbiana County, Ohio, respectively.
