Encore Energy concentrates its efforts within the Horizontal Berea Oil Play of Eastern Kentucky, one of the most active and productive oil-producing regions in the Commonwealth. The area has experienced extensive development activity and has attracted significant attention from operators due to its history of successful horizontal drilling projects. 

Located near the Levisa Fork River region of Eastern Kentucky, the play contains numerous producing horizontal wells and decades of geological information. According to company information, more than 200 horizontal wells have been drilled within the play, helping establish a substantial body of production data and operational experience. 

Over time, continued drilling activity has reduced uncertainty and improved operators' understanding of reservoir performance. As the field has matured, producers have benefited from improved drilling techniques, enhanced completion methods, and a growing collection of production history that assists in future development planning.

Why the Berea Play Matters

• Extensive production history
• Significant horizontal well activity
• Proven geology
• Existing infrastructure
• Ongoing operator investment
• Established transportation and refining access

Encore's strategy is to focus exclusively on this proven region rather than spreading resources across multiple basins. By concentrating on a single area, the company can leverage local operational experience, geological knowledge, and established infrastructure relationships. Contact us for more information.
