CNX Resources Corp. said a four-well Utica Shale pad in southwest Pennsylvania where it recently lost control of one well is not included in 2019 or 2020 plans.

One of the four wells was being stimulated at the same time and the other two are drilled but uncompleted. The other three wells “remain an opportunity for completion” in the future.
