Eclipse, Blue Ridge form Montage Resources Corp. in merger

Eclipse and Blue Ridge Mountain Resources recently announced they’ve finally completed the merger they announced last August to form a new company called Montage Resources Corp., according to Kallanish Energy.

Montage Resources common stock begins trading on the New York Stock Exchange earlier this week under the ticker symbol “MR”, giving effect to the 15-to-1 reverse stock split that was part of the merger deal.

The new entity is an independent exploration and production company with roughly 227,000 net effective undeveloped acres currently focused on the Utica and Marcellus Shale plays in southeast Ohio, West Virginia and North Central Pennsylvania.
