The State of Oil and Gas is finally up! It's Quarterly Report season, there's some news about permitting reform, there's a lot of power plant news, and EQT has done some interesting things lately. There's more, of course. Check it all out at the website. Link is in the comments.

I'd like to warn people to be careful about fake contractors. There are always unscrupulous people who will take advantage of a tragedy like this flood. It happens in Oklahoma all the time with tornados and roof repairs. They'll call using a local number and say they can come clean up, repair, or otherwise help you. They'll want you to make a deposit in advance because they've already got a line of people they have to do work for. You'll pay them and you'll never hear from them again.

Make sure to use local contractors and get a written bid before you send them any money. I strongly recommend you meet them in person, verify that they are local, and check the West Virginia Secretary of States' Business Search page https://apps.sos.wv.gov/business/corporations/ to see how long they've been in business. This is not the time to be overly trusting.

This isn't to discourage you from hiring someone who's just looking for some beer money or is just getting started. Just be aware that there are scammers out there and they'll probably try to work a scam here.

The State of Oil and Gas is up! It was a very slow news month, but the news that came out was definitely interesting. EQT drilled the longest oil and gas well to date (and it's in WV), EQT's CEO thinks natural gas will overtake petroleum as the major energy source in the U.S. by 2030 (just 3.5 years from now!), U.S. exports of crude reached an all-time high in April, and the Iran war thingy is still a thingy, maybe (it might not be tomorrow, who knows). Read all about it over at the blog! Link in the comments.

The State of Oil and Gas was ready days ago; better late than never, right? The Iran war is over (for good, we all hope), Dominion Energy is merging with NextEra, Appalachia (pronounced apple-atcha) is the U.S.'s natural gas foundation and the U.S. is the most reliable source of NLG in the world, DUCs are back in the news, there's more talk about pipelines than there has been in a while (feels like people want to build pipelines again maybe?), and AI is being used in oil and gas. That and more over at the blog! The link is in the comments.

The State of Oil and Gas is extremely late, but finally up! There's news about the Iran war, the UAE withdrawing from OPEC+, first quarter earnings calls from the major WV producers, a WV Supreme Court case about royalties, and an interesting plan for cooling a data center in Marion County. That and more over at the blog. Link to the blog is in the comments below.

The State of Oil and Gas is up! Lots of news about the Iran war, some news about data centers, West Virginia's H.B. 5381 (a new law focused on the Governor's 50 by 50 plan) get's a write up, Antero sued a local company and won a dollar, and America's refineries actually can refine American oil, just not as economically as foreign heavy crude. More details over at the blog. Link to the blog is in the comments below.

The State of Oil and Gas is up! The last month has flown by! The big news, of course, is the war in Iran and its affects on oil and natural gas availability and prices. In other news there are power plants being announced, a hydrogen generating facility has finished a one-year working test, there's a new pipeline being announced and one being completed. Check it out over at the blog! Link in the comments.
