Bricker & Eckler recently released the fifth edition of its shale economic development chart, which tracks Ohio’s oil and gas-related projects. The chart reports a 51 percent increase in total investments since fall 2014 and an additional $5.7 billion in infrastructure investments since the previous report was published in May 2015. The evolution of Ohio's shale boom has moved beyond the rush to lease oil and gas mineral rights into midstream and downstream phases involving the storage, transportation and processing of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Updated semi-annually, Bricker’s shale economic development chart seeks to quantify the impact that the shale boom has had on Ohio’s economy. For more, read our November 10, 2015 press release.
