The computed tomography (CT) facilities and the Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Morgantown, West Virginia were used to characterize the Marcellus Shale and underlying formations. The core is from a vertical pilot well (Boggess 17H) drilled in western Monongalia County near Core, West Virginia by Northeast Natural Energy for the second Marcellus Shale Energy and Environmental Laboratory (MSEEL). MSEEL is a joint venture between NETL, Northeast Natural Energy, and West Virginia University. The primary impetus for this report is to characterize the core to better understand the structure and variation of the Marcellus Shale and surrounding formations. This report, and the associated scans, provide detailed datasets not typically available from unconventional shales for analysis.
