East Resources, Inc., was an

oil and gas exploration and production company with a focus on unconventional shale oil
and gas resources in the United States.

History

The company was founded in 1983 by

natural gas processing facilities in Northern Pennsylvania.[3]

East Resources sold most of its assets to

Royal Dutch Shell in 2010 for $4.7 billion[4] and the rest to American Energy Partners, LP
in 2014 for $1.75 billion.

Pegula has shifted his focus to sports and entertainment properties, acquiring the Buffalo Sabres in 2011[5] and the Buffalo Bills[6] in 2014.

Today

Pegula continues to own some natural gas assets through other companies, including Greater Rocky Mountain Regional Oil & Gas in Colorado and Wyoming, and JKLM Energy (named after the initials of Pegula's children) in Pennsylvania.[7][8][9] The remains of the company are based in Boca Raton, Florida.
