Energy Industry

Everything your business needs is right here in Northwest Ohio

Our natural resources and proximity to nearly 60% of the North American population have attracted billions in investment from companies who are taking advantage of the entire state’s oil and gas supply chain, from drilling to production.

This region is adjacent to an incredible amount of energy reserves in the Marcellus and Utica Shale plays. And we combine that with an extensive transmission pipeline network running through this region which connects us to the traditional hotbeds near the Gulf Of Mexico, the growing supply in the Dakotas and the oil fields in Canada.
