Getting back to our summer essay assignment, we spent the “time off” educating as many state leaders as we could about how the oil and gas industry works, the record-breaking growth the state is seeing, the benefits a robust oil and gas industry brings to the state and local communities and the challenges we will need to overcome in order to keep growing. Coming off a successful and very well-attended legislative tour last fall, UPA partnered to host three additional site tours this summer for our state and local elected officials, key executive branch individuals and other important stakeholders. We owe a huge thanks to all those who attended and, most importantly, to those who hosted us and helped us organize these unique opportunities, including XCL, Javelin, Finley Resources, Uinta Wax, Caerus Oil and Gas, Wildcat, DOGM, Uintah County, Duchesne County and UB Tech. These site tours are critical in giving legislators an opportunity to “kick the tires” and get a better understanding of critical Site Tours UPDATE 8
