Exploration and discovery of natural gas in the Appalachian Basin - applying the latest in seismic geophysical and drilling technologies for the purpose of lowering risk and enhancing production results. Intrepid Exploration will likely be the first company to apply technologies such as large 3-D seismic surveys and horizontal drilling to many projected geologic targets. Those technologies have been applied successfully and profitably in many other hydrocarbon producing basins around the world and we believe that the improved success rate associated with these technologies and thinking will reward our investors greatly.
