For The Sunday Shale Show this week, Energy in Depth – Ohio sat down with Mr. Rob Beecham, Director of Business Development, of Kelchner Energy Services. Kelchner is a company headquartered in Dayton, Ohio and they serve as a great example of how companies all over Ohio are benefiting because of Utica shale development.

Mr. Kelchner provided insight into what is happening with the Kelchner, its history, and the benefits shale development is bringing to the region.

In 2012 we added close to 75 or 80 new employees directly attributed to the energy industry. They are all in Ohio. – Mr. Rob Beecham, Kelchner Energy Services

As Mr. Beecham acknowledges, 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, Kelchner 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 – Ohio thanks Mr. Beecham 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!
