Capital City Energy Group's Hotwell Services Subsidiary Ramps up Activity in Marcellus Shale

"Despite the significant decline in the price of natural gas, we continue to see strong activity in the Marcellus Shale. The reason for this increase may be from hedging and budgets that have already been approved and the overall project economics of the Marcellus Shale play. Hedged production ensures a strong pricing environment throughout 2009," said Joseph Sites, President of Hotwell Services, Inc. "Through our extensive experience in servicing the major independents; we are well positioned to capitalize on the strong activity in the area. Clients have found that our equipment, personnel, service, quality, and safety processes provide a very high value and reliable wireline service"
