In 1918, the Honorable James M. Cox, Governor of Ohio requested an in depth overview and evaluation of the geological resources contained in the County of Muskingum, located in the Southeast part of the state. The following is just a glimpse into the insight that the Geological Survey of Ohio gained as the area was researched and tested. What was found to be true and accurate, has since passed mettle and continues to hold true today; even supported more emphatically by the modern techniques employed today.Oil and gas exploration (http://www.integrityoilventures.com).
This document Bulletin 21 actually grew into a 350 page hardbound book, and has been consistently referenced and utilized for almost a century. It played a viable role in identifying the
Otsego Fault Line and the subsequent Otsego Field that became one of the more prolific producing structures in the region. It is this author'ss belief that at the time of major
development in the area, transportation and technology caused some of the hottest areas to be dismissed or overlooked, simply due to the rough and treacherous terrain. In essence the safe
and easier locations were prioritized, drilled, and produced. As the larger companies moved on to other areas leases were left to expire and eventually were located by Integrity Natural
Resources, LP. They continue to strive on a daily basis to aggressively research and secure these forgotten gems.
Bulletin 21 has provided a key roadmap for Integrity Natural Resources, LP'ss success giving areas, locations, and trends; that have been able to prove out with Hyper-Spectral Imaging in
conjunction with side scan aerial radar, and gas chromatography. Integrity has currently drilled in 9 successful wells all containing nice oil and gas production. Following a specific
trend identified by Ohio State Geologists.
