Advocating the industry: Despite the negative publicity, the oil and gas industry has much to offer

摘要

While I think the oil and gas industry in the US is doing a better job of communicating its message than it has in the past, there is a long way to go. I certainly do not pretend to be an oil and gas expert; however, I have worked in this industry for almost 20 years, and it is something I am passionate about. I think it will make a real difference for more of us to begin speaking out about the many positive aspects of our industry. This is particularly true for young people who are just beginning to think about their careers. Advocating a career in oil and gas to them might not seem particularly challenging. But we have our work cut out for us.
