CNX Resources Corporation is an American natural gas company based in Pittsburgh with operations in the Appalachian Basin, primarily in the Marcellus Shale and Utica Shale in Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia. It also develops coalbed methane properties in Virginia along with a methane capture and abatement program. The company also has extensive midstream operations and is one of the largest producers of natural gas in the United States.2

How it started

1860 to 2017

CNX Resources traces its roots to Consolidation Coal Company, a coal mining company founded in 1860. Dupont and Rheinbraun A.G. formed a joint venture in 1991. In May 1999, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.

In 2010, the company moved its headquarters to Cecil Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. The company also acquired the natural gas business of Dominion Resources in 2010, which increased its drilling properties and made it one of the largest natural gas production companies in the Marcellus Shale formation.

In 2017, the company completed the corporate spin-off of Consol Energy and changed its name to CNX Resources Corporation. Nicholas (Nick) J. Deiuliis, who was the president and CEO of Consol, continued in those same roles at CNX.

2018 to 2021

In January 2018, the company purchased a 50% interest in CONE Gathering LLC from Noble Energy. That year CNX entered a long-term agreement with Evolution Well Services to develop a 100% electric hydraulic fracturing fleet in the Appalachian Basin. The agreement was extended in April 2022.
