Range Resources to Convert Fleet to CNG

MarketWatch reports that Range Resources will convert its vehicle fleet to cleaner-burning compressed natural gas.  Range’s current fleet consists of approximately 184 CNG vehicles, about 100 of which operate in southwestern Pennsylvania.  Most of the vehicles are Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and Ram 2500 models.  According to the report, Range expects its investment to pay for itself within two years.  Range joins other Marcellus operators, such as Chesapeake Energy and EQT Corp., which have also announced similar transitions to CNG, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
