Expand Energy Corporation

Expand Energy Corporation is an independent energy company specializing in the exploration, acquisition, and development of oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids properties across the United States. With principal interests in prolific shale formations—including the Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania, the Utica Shale in Ohio and West Virginia, and the Haynesville and Bossier Shales in Louisiana—the company plays a significant role in supplying energy to the domestic market. Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Oklahoma City, Expand Energy Corporation employs approximately 1,500 people and has established itself as a key player in the crude petroleum and natural gas industry. The company’s business model emphasizes operational efficiency and resource development in major U.S. basins, supporting both industrial and consumer energy needs. Since its rebranding from Chesapeake Energy in late 2024, Expand Energy has continued to impact the energy sector through strategic asset management and a focus on sustainable resource extraction.
