Tuesday, August 12 – Stephen Robertson, Permian Basin Petroleum Association

11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

Since 1961, the Permian Basin Petroleum Association (PBPA) has represented the people and companies powering the world’s most productive energy basin. As the largest regional oil and gas association in the country, PBPA advocates for the safe, responsible development of natural resources. Whether working with Congress, state legislatures in New Mexico and Texas, the Railroad Commission of Texas, the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division, the State Land Office, the Texas Comptroller’s Office, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, the Environmental Protection Agency, or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, PBPA engages to provide the advocacy the industry deserves and demands.

The 2025 legislative sessions in Texas and New Mexico brought big conversations for the Permian Basin’s oil and gas industry. From New Mexico’s efforts to “Trump-proof” environmental policy to Texas bills that could support or restrict energy development, this year’s outcomes matter. Join us for a conversation to find out just what did and didn’t happen in Santa Fe and Austin that could impact the continued development of oil and gas resources in the Permian Basin.

Free admission.

Desserts & drinks provided.
