Oil industry offers real information
Independent oil and gas producers established a web site called BRIEF, which stands for Bringing Real Information on Energy Forward. The International Association of Drilling Contractors and numerous other independent producers associations are behind this campaign.
IADC says the goal is to have “a rapid-response mechanism" to counter inaccurate information distributed through the general media and by politicians on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.
Brian Petty, IADC senior vice-president of government affairs, talked about the web site during the 2009 IADC Drilling Onshore Conference on May 21 in Houston.
BRIEF is an informative site with links to various reports as well as a daily summary of editorials regarding energy-related legislation. It’s worth a visit. I’ve added it to my favorites list.
“EnergyInDepth separates fact from fiction about our nation’s natural gas and oil industry—especially on emerging policy issues such as the environment and taxes,” IADC said in a news release.
IADC notes that US oil and natural gas producers account for the federal treasury’s second largest revenue source with personal and corporate taxes being number one.
