Energy transition and industry engagement were the Talk of the Town this week on Townsquare Media’s KLXX SuperTalk 1270AM. Specifically the positive work Chris Wright and the team at Liberty Energy are doing for the oil and gas industry.
Talk of the Town host Steve Bakken asked The Crude Life’s founder Jason Spiess about his opinion on Chris Wright and the recent changes at Liberty Energy.
“Before CO and carbon capture became a catchword, Liberty Energy figured out the industry was more expansive than oil and gas and we are an energy company and not limited to oil and gas,” Bakken said. “They grew into some other spaces and have done a great job being vocal and pushing out the messaging.”
Spiess agreed with Bakken and advanced the conversation further.
“What their CEO Chris Wright has done, in my opinion, has become of the true leaders in the petroleum space to educate global leaders on how the oil and gas industry is a leader in carbon management and environmental innovations,” Spiess said.
The two continued the discussion citing examples of how the industry used to be very “boiler plate” on how to conduct public relations, however, time have changed.
“What Chris Wright and Liberty do different than many of the other leaders in the industry is they do not present their message from an ego-centric point of view rather a this is what we do and this is why we do it,” Spiess said. “He’s really been one of the first ones to crack the presentation culture where I think the rest of the industry has missed.”
Bakken agreed.
“Chris and Liberty stepped outside the box,” Bakken said.
Chris Wright is the Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Energy in Denver, Colorado. Mr. Wright was appointed to the Board of Directors in 2020. He also serves on the Denver Branch Board of Directors.
From the perspective of Denver Branch Board Director Chris Wright, “energy is the infrastructure of the economy. It makes everything else possible.”
Wright, a pioneer in hydraulic fracturing, is the chief executive officer and chairman of the board of Liberty Oilfield Services in Denver. He also is the executive chairman of Liberty Resources and Liberty Midstream Solutions.
He previously served as chief executive officer of Pinnacle Technologies, which created the hydraulic fracture mapping industry and helped launch the modern “fracking” industry and commercial shale gas production in the 1990s.
“We bring out the technology, the trucks, and the horsepower” to release oil and gas from shale, Wright said on the Federal Reserve’s website. Large producers like Exxon and ConocoPhillips are among Liberty Oilfield Service’s customers.
Wright serves on numerous organizations’ boards of directors and is involved in several initiatives to provide scholarships, career opportunities, and other resources in communities across the Denver region. He sees his Denver Branch Board director service as an extension of that commitment to helping others pursue their dreams.
