Babst Calland represents the most active E&P and midstream companies involved in the U.S. shale play with assets in the Appalachian Basin. More than 60 full-time energy lawyers, 27 of which are admitted to practice in West Virginia, in the Firm’s multidisciplinary Energy and Natural Resources Group work collaboratively with in-house counsel, executives and other outside advisors. 

With a history of hands-on experience working with government agencies, strong technical backgrounds, and a reputation for serving a broad array of industrial clients, Babst Calland assists producers and midstream companies in addressing the evolving and complex federal, state, and local regulatory requirements associated with oil and gas development in the Appalachian Basin. 

Babst Calland attorneys are active in trade associations and oil and gas associations in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio, including the Gas and Oil Association of WV, Inc. (GO-WV), West Virginia Coal Association, West Virginia Mining Institute, West Virginia Manufacturer’s Association, Energy & Mineral Law Foundation and Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation. 

Attorneys frequently speak at industry-related functions, regularly represent clients before federal, state and local agencies, and also participate in agency advisory committees in order to gain a greater understanding of emerging issues likely to impact the energy industry.
