Our History

While we have our sights set on the future and opportunities ahead of us, EQT Corporation has a lengthy history in the Appalachian Basin, which can be traced back to 1878 and the first commercial natural gas well in Murrysville, PA.  Throughout the next 10 years, this well, named the Haymaker #1, was bought and sold via multiple acquisitions before it landed with The Philadelphia Company, formed by George Westinghouse in 1884.  In 1888, The Philadelphia Company created a subsidiary named Equitable Gas - and that was the official origin of EQT.

What began as a modest utility company in the late 1800's eventually became a standalone entity in 1950 when it separated from its parent company and listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker "EQT".  As the years went on, the company began to transition into other areas of the natural gas industry -- and in 2009 Equitable Gas rebranded to become EQT Corporation.  In 2013, EQT sold its local distribution utility assets and became an exploration and production company with integrated midstream assets.

In November 2017, EQT acquired Rice Energy -- and the combination of EQT's existing assets along with the acquired 252,000 acres, 340 net producing wells, and estimated production of 1.4 Bcfe per day -- created the largest natural gas producer in the United States.  Shortly afer the acquisition, EQT announced a plan to separate its upstream and midstream businesses and in November 2018; EQT completed the separation and became a pure play production company with a renewed focus on upstream operations.

In December 2018, a proxy contest was launched by the Rice Group at shareholders' request to take control of EQT's Board of Directors, and on July 10, 2019, shareholders elected seven Rice Group-nominated directors as well as the five nominees supported by both EQT and the Rice Group.  The board met shortly thereafter and elected Toby Z. Rice as EQT's Chief Executive Officer.

With a renewed focus on upstream operations and an integrated commercial group, EQT is uniquely positioned to produce our region's natural gas and efficiently deliver it to market for end users. At EQT, we believe that your service providers are a critical component to our success in achieving our mission and business objectives, and as such, we utilize these services to responsibly drill, complete and produce natural gas throughout the Appalachian Basin.

Production:

Natural gas is an efficient, clean-burning fuel source frequently used for power generation, as well as residential, industrial and commercial uses. The abundant reserves in the Appalachian Basin provide a reliable domestic fuel source with significant positive effects on jobs and our nation's economic prosperity, competitiveness and security. EQT has a world class asset base in the Appalachian Basin and is the largest producer of natural gas in the United States.

2. West Virginia - EQT owns or leases approximately 385,000 net acres in WV. Most of the acreage is located in the northwestern region of the state, wiht the majority located in Doddridge, Marion, Tyler and Wetzel Counties. EQT is actively developing the Marcellus Shale and Upper Devonian Shale in this area.
3. Ohio - EQT owns or leases approximately 65,000 net acres in eastern OH, and we are actively developing the Utica Shale in Belmont County.

Commercial:

Once EQT's wells are dilled, completed and turned-in-line, it is up to EQT's commercial group, also known as EQT Energy, to manage and optimize our commodity revenues. There are multiple facets to our commercial operation required to successfully deliver our product to market:

- Origination, trading and optimization of our physical assets
- Financial design and execution to protect and enhance EQT's cash flow
- Logistical scheduling required to get our commodities to market
- Ensuring the contractual midstream capacity to gather and process the commodities
- All aspects of natural gas liquids management
- Fundamental analytics to provide market insights to maximize commodity profitability

Employees are EQT’s greatest assets and we genuinely value each member of our workforce. EQT participates in a yearly engagement survey to benchmark employee satisfaction and we strive to exceed our employees’ expectations.
