The independent oil and natural gas company built its reputation on being one of the most active drillers of new oil wells in the US. Today it concentrates on building natural gas reserves in the US midcontinent and Gulf Coast, as well as in Canada's British Columbia. Since its shift in focus, the company has almost quadrupled its proved reserves to more than 1.7 trillion cu. ft. of natural gas equivalent. Seeking lower development risks, Chesapeake is focusing its operations in Kansas, Oklahoma, and the Texas Panhandle. Co-founders Tom Ward and Aubrey McClendon own about 7% and 6% of the company, respectively.  COMPETITION Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (APC) BP p.l.c. (BP) Burlington Resources Inc.
