While oil and gas production, especially in the Permian Basin, has continued to break records, deliver meaningful environmental impacts, provide affordable and reliable energy across the globe, and promote economic growth, that isn’t enough for anti-energy advocates and the Biden Administration. We have seen it across the world in news this summer, activists obstructing traffic […]
What the Legislative Session Accomplished
Typically the best things about summer for oil and gas operators include a shining sun, an abundant time to spend with friends and family, and Lord willing, the lawnmower is broken and lawmakers in Austin, Santa Fe, and Washington D.C. are typically in recess. Unfortunately we have yet to find out if those things will […]
The Session Ends, But Challenges Remain
With the end of the Texas Legislative session taking place after the writing of this article, I can assure you that PBPA has worked diligently to provide oil and gas operators in the Permian Basin successes that would benefit them. One issue that became a lasting challenge throughout the session was the plain and simple […]
A Look Ahead
Members, This new year of 2023 will no doubt bring us great changes. We are hopeful of real progress as our elected officials gather in Washington, Santa Fe, and Austin to develop public policy that will leverage America’s great natural resources.

A Look Ahead at 2023

All across the United States, Americans are suffering from a missing energy and economic policy—a hindrance that has wrought havoc for families and their budgets over the last six months—and the only thing the Biden Administration is providing are mixed messages. This is most effectively illustrated by the Administration saying they are green lighting oil […]
No Time to Play Politics With Permian Oil and Gas
Lately we have become all too familiar with the Biden Administration launching attacks—not in defense of Ukrainians who are valiantly defending their homeland—but on American oil and gas workers and operators who are working through the challenges that his own administration has wrought. In the middle of last year, our members warned about the perilous […]

Innovation has always been at the heart of the oil and gas industry and in particular here in the Permian Basin. No sector has been as dynamic over the last few years as water management. As the President of the Permian Basin Petroleum Association I know how important water use has been for operators across […]
Now’s the Time
Today, more than 1.2 billion people live without access to electricity and 3 billion people lack access to the types of fuels necessary to cook and provide food for their family. There is no question that this is a time for more focus on ways to deliver access to affordable energy to those struggling to […]
