“While Wysox isn’t a new market for us, we are thrilled to be able to expand our network and partner with an exclusive facility to fulfill our customers’ frac-sand needs,” said Lee Hullman, vice president of business development. “Growing our presence in the Northeast is essential as the energy industry continues to flourish in the Marcellus Shale and beyond.”
Shale Rail is a part of the Northeast Freight Family of Companies and was created to contribute to Pennsylvania's expanding industries with a focus on Marcellus Shale oil and gas. The Wysox location has the capacity for 300-plus cars per month, allowing Shale Support to increase their supply.
Shale Support mines Delta Pearl from its properties in Picayune. Delta Pearl is the frac sand of choice among operators and third-party suppliers with operations in the Marcellus/Utica, Permian, Eagle Ford and Haynesville/Tuscaloosa shale plays.
