Oil and Gas Industry makes $3 billion dollars a day in pure profit. Generates over $4.3 trillion dollars a year in revenue. It is the seventh largest industry in the world, ranked ahead of food production, automobile production, coal mining, and at 1.4 trillion, the pharmaceutical industry doesn’t even crack the top ten. The industries listed ahead of oil and gas are completely dependent on oil and gas. The more they grow, the more we grow. That’s the scale. That’s the size of this thing. And it’s only getting bigger. But before any of that money is made, you gotta get the lease. You gotta secure the rights and lock up the surface. Then babysit the owners, babysit the crews. Then manage the police and the press when the babies refuse to be sat. That’s my job. Secure the lease, then manage the people. First part’s pretty simple. It’s the second part that can get you killed.
