Powder River Basin
Where is the Powder River Basin?
Located in southeast Montana and northwest Wyoming, the Powder River Basin is a region known for its rich coalbed methane potential - which currently supplies approximately 40% of the United States' coal. While overall coal interest has been in decline, the Powder River Basin remains a relatively active target for certain operators.
While the Powder River Basin is unified geologically, residents of areas distant from the Powder River proper do not think of themselves as living in a single geographic region. For example, residents of the Crow Reservation in the Big Horn River watershed, or of Sheridan in the Tongue River watershed, would locate the Powder River Basin as the region east of the Big Horn Mountains, using a definition based on watershed and topography.
The active formation being developed includes.
