For The Sunday Shale Show this week, Energy in Depth sat down with Mr. Mike Battles, Senior Associate, Woolpert. Woolpert has been an Ohio company since 1911 and currently employs 105 surveyors and 60 engineers all in Ohio. They are the largest architecture, engineering, and geospatial firm headquartered in Ohio.

 Overall, a little over 600 of which about 250 of them are working here in Ohio–Mike Battles, Woolpert

As Mr. Battles acknowledged, there is great potential in the future development of our state’s shale deposits, and its potential is recognized worldwide, with more and more interest and investment coming in to the Buckeye State.

For this reason, Woolpert and other organizations (like Energy in Depth) have placed a priority on educating the public about the industry, its practices, and the incredible benefits this continued development will bring for Ohio’s workforce and its communities.

Energy in Depth thanks Mr. Battles for his efforts, and for joining us on The Sunday Shale Show. We look forward to continuing to work with those working directly or indirectly with the oil and gas industry to provide in-depth analysis of what’s taking place in Ohio (and beyond), and what it means for our communities and our state.

Stay tuned for The Sunday Shale Show next week!
