What does it take to build a successful oil and gas company in today’s market?
In this episode of Crude Awakenings, Allen Gilmer (co-founder of Drillinginfo, now Enverus) and Cody Davis (CEO of Oil & Gas Asset Clearinghouse) sit down with Raymond Welder, CEO of WelderXP Ltd., to talk about the realities of operating in oil and gas — and why the future may look a lot like the past.
We get into the surprising parallels between mining and oil & gas, why permitting time (not geology) is the industry's biggest enemy, how China cornered the critical-minerals market, the loss of the old Bureau of Mines, and where gold goes from here.
