The Devonian Basin encompasses one of the oldest and most historically significant oil and gas producing regions in North America. Stretching across Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, and West Virginia, the Devonian formation predates the modern shale boom and continues to produce alongside the Marcellus and Utica plays that have reshaped the Appalachian Basin in recent decades.

PRL International conducts retained executive search for companies operating across the Devonian Basin and broader Appalachian region. Our searches cover VP of Operations, Director of Engineering, Production Manager, Land Manager, HSE Director, and senior technical and operational leadership across upstream, midstream, and energy services.

PRL International is based in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, in the heart of the Appalachian Basin. We have spent 30 years building relationships with senior operators, engineers, and executives across the Devonian, Marcellus, and Utica plays. The Appalachian Basin is not a market he reads about from a distance. It is the market he has worked in his entire career.

Devonian Basin operations often require leaders with a specific combination of conventional and unconventional experience. Companies operating legacy Devonian assets alongside newer Marcellus development need senior leaders who understand both the technical demands of older conventional production and the operational requirements of modern unconventional plays. PRL International searches with that distinction in mind.

We work exclusively on a retained basis. Every search receives our full attention from intake to offer. We reach out directly to the specific individuals who have the experience your operation requires, whether they are looking or not.

Every placement is backed by a 90-day replacement guarantee.
