If you know where your minerals are located and you’re wondering whether there’s a drilling rig on or near your minerals, this web site is the place to go.
As of January 19, 2017 there are only seven rigs working in West Virginia, so the chances that your minerals are being drilled are pretty low. There is also one rig on the Pennsylvania side of the border just south of I-70. It’s close enough to the border that it could be sending a lateral into West Virginia. So maybe eight rigs are working on West Virginia minerals.
This will be something to come back to periodically, of course. Bookmark it for future use!
Here is another link for watching drilling rig locations. I know that sometimes Antero uses Patterson in WV. http://www.patenergy.com/drilling/rigs/
Thanks for the link.
