Guests/Topics:
Jim Willis, Marcellus Drilling News, comments on the 1-2 punch of the supply shock and demand shock on the marketplace. From the coronavirus to Russia to Saudi Arabia to OPEC.
The interview discusses whether pipelines are considered essential or not with states shutting down work sites and offices. Willis cites Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf’s recent shut down and the Mariner Pipeline. Shutting down pipeline construction raises more questions in terms of timelines, safety, erosion issues and other factors with trench construction.
Willis also gives an update from the Marcellus Shale play and mentions a company called Crusoe Energy Systems and their flaring solution using computers and digital innovations.
Willis, who has been working in a home office since 2006, offers some tips and advice for those transitioning to the home office environment.
Brandon Davis, Swan Energy , explains why he believes retail will be the first industry hit real hard with the COVID-19 Shutdown and why more people will be going to social media than ever. Davis also talks about having patience while the coronavirus is handled and excited to see what the future can bring.
