Thank you to everyone who made the 2026 Drake Dialogues possible: our sponsors, supporters, speakers, moderators, partners, volunteers, hosts, attendees, and everyone who followed along online. Special thanks to @APIenergy, @MarathonPetroCo , and the Venango County Historical Society.

Great time speaking at @ForumDrake's conference in NW Pennsylvania. Special thanks to @Andrewtabler and Steven Burns for hosting.

From the Drake Well to the shale revolution, our industry has a long history of using ingenuity to solve big challenges. Great to join @EnergyUnderSec Kyle Haustveit today to discuss why passing BAAJA this year will help put our industry's innovation to work.

What does energy have to do with food production? @DanielYergin explains the connection between energy, agriculture, and the systems required to feed a modern economy. From the Drake Dialogues in Titusville.

What does permitting uncertainty cost? @MarathonPetroCo Chairman, President, and CEO Maryann Mannen explains how delays can raise costs and stall investments worth hundreds of millions, or even billions, of dollars. “Clarity and timing” are critical.

.@APIenergy's @mj_sommers: What role will Pennsylvania play in America’s energy future? @EnergyUnderSec Kyle Haustveit: “Natural gas... is not a bridge fuel. It is a foundational fuel for our country and for our allies.”
