Government Affairs Panel: From the Permian to DC

Tuesday, 22 September
Ballrooms A-C
Panel
The policies shaped in state capitols and Washington DC carry major consequences for the future of the Permian Basin production. This panel brings together leading government affairs leaders from the basin's most prominent operators to discuss how energy companies navigate an increasingly complex political and regulatory landscape; from permitting reform and federal land access to environmental regulation and energy security. Attendees will gain insight into how government affairs strategy is developed and executed, the trends to watch ahead, and how the political forces at play connect the Permian to DC.
