Drew Hopkins, Jerris Johnson, and The Real Deal Landman Show returned to NAPE (North American Prospect Expo) with a stylish booth in the nether regions of the conference, but plenty of giveaways and goodies to bribe visitors into coming to see them. The conversations covered various topics in the energy industry, including personal experiences, stories, and memories, as well as the significance of the main event. Discussions emphasized the role of data modernization and AI, the impact of being a landman, insights on energy management and data centers, and challenges and opportunities in the energy industry.
Our thanks to NAPE for providing a space to set up a temporary shop and to the many fans (dare we say “fans”?) who made the trek out to the edge to say hello.
