Texas has long played a central role in U.S. oil and gas activity, but the structure of its upstream economy has evolved as domestic production patterns and energy markets continue to shift.
Join Karr Ingham, Petroleum Economist and President of the Texas Alliance of Energy Producers, for a data-driven discussion examining how Texas’s upstream sector has changed over time. Grounded in insights from the Texas Petro Index, this webinar explores key trends in employment, economic output, and overall industry activity — and why these shifts matter well beyond the state’s borders.
