C.O.B. Tuesday Ep. 57 - "Adapt and Be Adept" Featuring Terry Anderson
You never know who you might meet on the ski chairlift! As you'll hear, today we had the pleasure of hosting Terry Anderson, a great friend, author and scholar. Terry is the John and Jean De Nault Senior Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution and is the author or editor of nearly 40 books. Terry is also a Bozeman Montana "FOL" - friend of Lance. Lance as in Lance Gilliland, Managing Director and Co-Head of Energy M&A at TPH. Together, we all had a great discussion around Terry's most recent book, "Adapt and Be Adept: Market Responses to Climate Change." We touched on everything from free speech at our universities to what works and what doesn't when it comes to combating climate change. We spent a fair amount of time on the underlying concept of cost-benefit... something Washington policy makers seem to be forgetting a little more each day. Our TPH crew launched today's conversation: crude oil, OPEC, and what happens next was the main topic as Mike Bradley discussed current market sentiment, and "doing more with less" was Matt Portillo's theme as he discussed some of TPH Research's recent analysis of "maintenance versus growth" in US shale over the next few years. As always, thank you for joining! We hope you enjoy! ---------------------Copyright 2021, Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.

C.O.B. Tuesday Special Edition: Carbon Neutral Coalition Featuring Corby Robertson
We have all heard countries, states, cities and companies announce their plans to be somewhat or fully carbon neutral by 2030 or 2035 or 2050 or 2060... but the question remains, how are they... and how are we... going to really do that? For a Special Edition COBT this week, we were thrilled to visit with a great friend, Corby Robertson, to learn about the Carbon Neutral Coalition that is tackling this all important question. Surely significant carbon capture will play a meaningful role. We all know, however, that it won't happen in the scale we need unless we get the economic and market and legal structures right. The Carbon Neutral Coalition's mission is for the State of Texas to become carbon neutral by 2050 and maintain a robust economy that provides a good standard of living and affordable energy, products, and services. To do so, they are bringing together energy companies, environmentalists, politicians and regulators. As Corby points out, by working together with all these groups, the oil and gas industry could lead us to become a carbon neutral world. Be prepared for a great and detailed walkthrough from Corby. We loved it! As you will hear, Corby also references a National Petroleum CCUS report. The NPC Petroleum report is linked here. You may find more information on the Carbon Neutral Coalition and their full list of recommendations linked here as well. Thanks again, Corby, for a great discussion and many thanks to you all too! Have a great weekend! ---------------Copyright 2021, Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.

C.O.B. Tuesday Ep. 55 CERAWeek Reflections and the Top 5 Subsurface Observations in North America
With baseball opening day right around the corner (April 1), we've dubbed today an "energy doubleheader!"We started with a discussion about this year's CERAWeek conference. We were so pleased to be joined by Dr. Atul Arya, Senior Vice President and Chief Energy Strategist at IHS Markit to speak to the conference's highlights and top themes. With everything from Biden, SPACs, the Energy Transition, and the ever changing future of oil and gas on their minds, over 19,000 attendees gathered virtually for what has to have been the most fascinating CERA yet. Atul takes us behind the scenes and provides some keen insights. For additional information about the conference and summaries of panel discussions, click here.We then segued to a presentation by TPH's subsurface technical team. We had posed this question to them - what are the five most interesting things happening in the Lower 48 today? Kirk Chatawanich (Chief Technical Officer), EJ Snikeris (Executive Director) and Erica Powell (Director) made their COBT debut to give us their views... and as you will hear, item 5 is a new energy angle on some classic oil and gas technology. Absolutely fascinating stuff.Our TPH crew warmed up in the bullpen before we got really rolling with our guests. Mike Bradley gave a brief energy market update, Matt Portillo discussed TPH's latest report on Hydrogen (hot off the presses today!), and Colin Fenton peppered in some comments on demand and the recent crude import data from China. Chinese data always tells you something interesting!----------Copyright 2021, Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.

C.O.B. Tuesday Ep. 53 Featuring Alex Pourbaix
For the last few weeks, we have been asking ourselves "what do all these US energy policy decisions (especially Keystone) look like from the Canadian vantage point?" We set out to find a guest that could help us feed that curiosity. Wow did we score!We found Alex Pourbaix, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cenovus Energy, headquartered in Calgary. Alex was great and gave us an update on how Cenovus is doing as well as their current areas of focus. We of course asked him for his Canadian perspective on a few public policy areas as well. Alex and Cenovus are true advocates for the industry and it was clear we share a lot of the same perspectives cross-border!We kicked off the session with our usual COBT crew: Mike Bradley gave his predictions for the OPEC+ meeting taking place later this week and Matt Portillo shared a few slides from TPH Research's recent Battery Cost Update. Colin Fenton shared his observations so far from CERAWeek by IHS Markit taking place this week, noting a special emphasis on the importance of hydrocarbons! It has been a great conference so far and has us excited for the future.I also want to add that we broadcasted today's discussion from the Petroleum Club of Houston which is celebrating their 75th Anniversary this year. Should you ever need a meeting space or lunch spot in Houston, Jeremie Millwee and her team will surely be able to help. Thank you Jeremie and PCOH for your hospitality today!----------Copyright 2021, Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.

C.O.B. Tuesday Special Edition - Perseverance Landing Featuring John Grotzinger
Today we bring you a special edition to lift your spirits and your weekend out of this world! In fact, toward Mars, where the Perseverance rover has made a spectacular landing on the red planet in pursuit of new science. Leading our virtual mission from his post at Caltech is our good friend, John Grotzinger. John is a professor of geology and geobiology, and the division chair for Geological and Planetary Sciences, at that esteemed university. Prior to moving to Caltech in 2005, he spent 18 years as a member of the faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). John is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, a recipient of NASA's Distinguished Public Service Medal, and one of three inaugural advisory board members at Halliburton Labs.As if those credentials were not impressive enough, John is uniquely well qualified to explain Perseverance's significance. He served as chief scientist for the Mars Curiosity rover mission from 2007 to 2015. As John explains in our video, the informed risks taken during that mission, and lessons learned, enabled the Perseverance mission to push boundaries never before attempted. His explanation of the drill bit on the rover is not to be missed!Colin and I, both space enthusiasts, could barely contain our excitement. We hope you find this conversation with a genuine 'rock and rocket' scientist as stimulating as we did!----------Copyright 2021, Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co.
