BUSINESS SUMMARY 
Union Drilling, Inc. provides contract land drilling services and equipment primarily to natural gas producers in the United States. It offers drilling rigs, as well as drilling crews and ancillary equipment to operate its drilling rigs. The company’s rigs are operated in unconventional natural gas producing areas, which are characterized by formations with very low permeability rock, such as shales, tight sands, and coal bed methane that require specialized drilling techniques to develop the natural gas resources. It principally operates in the Appalachian Basin, extending from New York to Tennessee; the Arkoma Basin in eastern Oklahoma and Arkansas, including the Fayetteville Shale; and the Fort Worth Basin in northern Texas, including the Barnett Shale. As of December 31, 2007, Union Drilling, Inc. owned 71 rigs. The company was founded in 1997 and is based in Fort Worth, Texas.
