America’s energy outlook is more promising than ever. Natural gas produced from shale is transforming the energy landscape for the better, driving economic prosperity, reducing utility bills for consumers and helping America to achieve the goal of energy independence. Shale gas is also shaping the future of National Fuel Gas Company. Through our program to develop the Marcellus Shale, we are in the midst of a transformation that will drive our growth and produce lasting benefits for National Fuel shareholders, employees and the communities that we serve. National Fuel is a diversified energy with more than 2,000 employees that operates an integrated collection of natural gas and oil assets across five business segments: Exploration & Production, Pipeline & Storage, Gathering, and Utility. National Fuel is a leader in practicing the highest standards of responsibility in all aspects of our business. We are committed to providing safe and reliable natural gas delivery, excellent customer service, and responsible environmental stewardship. Developing great assets begins with great people, and National Fuel takes pride in hiring, training, motivating and retaining excellent employees.
