companies reveal their latest contributions to
solving problems and optimizing producers'
performance. This month's Industry in Motion
report shows ongoing progress at U.S. LNG export
facilities, and the game-changing potential it carries
for the consequential ramping of natural gas
demand. The Producer/Operator Startups section
shares the strategies and drivers that are powering
a trio of new independents plying their unique skill
sets in resource plays, while the Eagle Ford Activity report profiles the
operations of key producers in the lower-48's second-largest shale play, with
perhaps the most prolific multiphase production potential in America. The
October issue also presents the Independents Guide to the Louisiana Gulf Coast
Oil Exposition (LAGCOE), which dovetails with the companion feature on
one of the latest Gulf of Mexico success stories, the Hess Corporation-operated
Stampede Field. Association news includes Official Convention Sections for
PBPA, OIPA and COGA, along with coverage of the EKOGA convention.
