Ohio Fuel opens compressor station near Logan
Ohio Fuel Gas Co. operates a new 22 000 dollar compressor station north of Logan to move gas from 18 Marion Falls Township wells into the company system. The 12 by 20 foot prefab building houses a 100 horsepower engine pumping up to a million cubic feet daily. Gas from wells is piped over two miles to the station then fed into the Ohio Fuel line for Crawford Station distribution across 56 counties. The move reflects a push to use local production to meet rising demand as 94 percent of gas for customers comes from outside the state with underground storage supporting winter needs.
