03 May 2024ENB #207 Rethinking Green: The Unseen Impact of ESG on Energy and Finance00:39:23

The world is in a financial crisis and it is intentionally been implemented. Today I sit down with Paul Tice and we talk about his new book: "The Race to Zero: How ESG Investing will Crater the Global Financial System" - Paul H. Tice

While getting ready for this interview, I poured through the book. He has done an outstanding job lining up ESG investing and defining "Sustainable" energy. It is really hard to wade through the fear-mongering of the mainstream media. Looking at financials and ESG investing hypocrisy is critical. Talking about the investing hypocrisy for years has been frustrating, and Paul has done a great job pulling the data and the receipts to back up his opinions.

With the Biden Administration to raise taxes, investments with tax benefits are critical, and I appreciate everyone's feedback and information. One can argue that just allowing tax cuts to sunset is in itself a tax increase and will impact the middle class.

Investors want their money, and the oil companies have done a better job with fiscal responsibility. The US oil companies are the best in the world at producing low-cost energy with the least impact on the environment. Energy will continue through the foreseeable future as being one of the key places the global investing market will turn to protect their portfolios.

Thank you, Paul, for your time on the podcast, and I highly recommend your book to anyone in the ESG, Investing, and energy markets. No, wait, let me expand on that; anyone who wants to protect their portfolio needs to read this. - Stu

Victoria believes in the American Dream and is fighting to preserve it for her daughters and all of our children. -She understands that Energy Security is National Security. Doesn’t want the U.S. Dependent on other countries – Russia or China for our energy. 

What a great introduction, and I am going to be quite honest – the conversation with Victoria got me a little choked up. 

It is wonderful to see someone in Washington care about doing the right thing. It would be great to get Victoria, and Trump on a podcast. Wow.

23 May 2024Deal Spotlight Episode #7: Exxon vs. Chevron for Hess and The Battle For Guyana01:12:17

Guyana has emerged as one of the most prized oil assets over the last 10 years and the race to develop this asset is seen as critical to stable oil production growth over the next 10 years. Chevron has attempted to jump into this growth by purchasing Hess for a $53B price tag, seemingly giving them access to Hess's prized 30% stake in the Starbroek Block. This deal gave Chevron the future production growth it was seeking after missing out on some of the larger Permian shale deals we have seen over the last 12 months. But ExxonMobil had other plans, being the operator of this field, has experienced what it sees as a "First Of Right of Refusal" to Guyana and has petitioned to international courts to block this deal until ExxonMobil decides whether or not to "bid" on this 30% stake.

Episode 7 of the Deal Spotlight felt like the perfect place to discuss the details surrounding this potential merger, and I was lucky to be able to get Bennett Williams to join me for this discussion. Bennett has spent his entire career working in the M&A space and having worked within Chevron doing corporate offshore development, brings a unique insight into this merger mess. He spent the first half of the show helping educate me on the ins and outs of offshore development, dealing with governments, and understanding how these JOAs are structured. After laying the groundwork, we dive into the details of this proposed deal, look at some of the potential language that may have been used to craft the JOA and who he thinks ultimately will prevail in this suit.  

This was a great educational piece for me having spent my career in the Lower48, so big thanks to Bennett for taking the time to come and deal with me!

Until the next deal!

21 Jun 2024ENB #210 Protecting the Energy Future with Former Congressman Trent Franks00:21:28

Americans are facing the most important election in our country's great history. We can not sit on the sidelines and think someone else will fix our country's problems. Yoda said, "Do or Not, there is no try." - I say vote as your kids and grandkids' lives depend on it.

In the past, we have lost faith in our elected officials and mainstream media and have started interviewing politicians for several reasons. First, I need to understand their platforms, and second, I want to get their stories out to our huge subscriber and reader base. Some of my political interviews have been with Congressman Andy Ogles, Victoria Spartz, Floyd Trujillo, and Zach Nun. I just recently met with Senator Ted Cruz at an Americans for Prosperity energy event in Dallas. A shout-out to Genevieve Collins for all of her hard work for Texas and the US.

My discussion today with Trent Franks solidified my opinion that we have some good political people in office, and we have to be really careful about who we elect in this next election.

I will be 100% honest with you: Trent has the background and knowledge to be a critical member of our elected officials. His expertise and past track records are exactly what we need in support of the next president. Trump will be elected, and he needs to choose his team wisely. Great men like Senator Cruz, General Flynn, and Trent will be needed to keep our country alive.

Please go to https://trentfranks.com/, sign up for his updates, and donate. Thank you, Congressman Franks, for stopping by the podcast. I want to do several live updates in the next few weeks with other folks like General Flynn, Senator Cruz, and others to discuss energy security. - Stu

24 Jun 2024ENB #211 Advancing Fusion Energy: Kronos Fusion's Path to Sustainable Power and Global Competition00:25:17

Today, on the Conversations in Energy with Stu Turley, I had the opportunity to interview Priyanca Ford, founder of Kronos Fusion Energy, to discuss the advancements and challenges in fusion energy. She highlights Kronos' focus on developing a heat generation unit, the importance of helium-3 as a clean fuel, and the role of AI in optimizing their designs. Priyanca also touches on the global competition in fusion energy, particularly with China's progress, and emphasizes the need for sustainable, long-term energy solutions.

The conversation underscores the significance of nuclear energy in achieving net zero emissions and the potential future collaborations with industry leaders like Elon Musk.

We need all forms of energy to eliminate energy poverty and technological advancements sooner rather than later. Thank you, Priyanka, for stopping by the podcast and giving us the great updates from Kronos! We are looking forward to new announcements and breakthroughs. - Stu
