Headquartered in Bridgeport, West Virginia, Mountain V was founded in March 1994 by Steve and Mike Shaver and is a successful, privately owned, oil and gas production company. Mountain V was formed with the intent to acquire and develop oil and gas reserves in the Appalachian Basin, with particular emphasis in West Virginia.
Mountain V has been successful in its 14 year history by
drilling 315 wells in West Virginia and Pennsylvania and acquiring over 300
wells in this time. Mountain V has also monetized its
older assets by various divestitures through the years to companies such as Linn
Energy and Northcoast Energy Eastern a subsidiary of EXCO Resources. Mountain V currently owns and operates 284 oil and gas wells on approximately 30,000 proven acres in West Virginia
and Pennsylvania.
Working to meet the energy needs of tomorrow
Mountain V has grown from drilling 2-5 wells per year
in 1995 to drilling 100+ wells per year
today while continuing to search for new acquisition opportunities. We continue to work hard to ensure the success of our
company and our business partners. We attribute our success to outstanding management and the good people that we work with.
