Gas Workers in Southwestern PA Find a New Resource

April 19, 2010 - PRLog -- Headline:  Gas Workers in Southwestern PA Find a New Resource

Marcellus Shale drilling activity has brought a number of new gas workers from Texas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Wyoming and Louisiana to the Southwestern counties of Pennsylvania.  As the workers begin the drilling for natural gas, they are confronted with the challenge of learning their way around this section of Pennsylvania.  Until recently, they have been asking everyone from hotel staff to chambers of commerce to waitresses in restaurant for helping in finding their way.

The natural gas industry employees are looking for laundries, health clubs, doctors, and many more businesses and services.  It’s been a struggle until recently.  PAGasDirectory.com which is the only online directory that connects gas workers and their spouses with local Pennsylvania businesses has launched an advertising and guerilla marketing program in Washington, Greene and Fayette counties.  This marketing effort will make it easy for gas workers to find local Pennsylvania businesses in this part of the state.

A primary need for gas workers in Southwestern Pennsylvania is housing.  A large number of gas workers are living in their RVs in camp grounds in Greene County.  As more gas workers move into the area, the camp grounds are adding more hook-ups.  One of the most popular categories on the web site is Real Estate which demonstrates the desire to find housing.

“PAGasDirectory.com is pleased it can be resource to the natural gas industry as begins to establish itself in Pennsylvania,” Joe Barone, President, PAGasDirectory.com.  He further commented, “We are continually adding local businesses to our online directory so the information is current which is important to our users.”    

PAGasDirectory is the leading online directory that connects the natural gas industry with local Pennsylvania businesses.  The directory has over 116,000 Pennsylvania businesses organized on a county by county in the 53 counties in the Marcellus Shale area.  It is the web site where gas workers, their spouses, and families find local Pennsylvania businesses.
