That’s the beginning of this Energy Crüe episode where I sat down with Derek Nixon (President/CEO - Varel Energy Solutions) and his dad Jim Nixon (President - Varel International Energy Services) at the Petroleum Club of Houston where we poured ourselves a scotch and started chatting.

Cory joins me at the Petroleum Club of Houston where we catch up on his travels to Texas from Canada. We discuss his entreprenrial spirit and how that lead him from starting off folding boxes at a coring lab, to looking at a problem of coring samples in real time, downhole and how to get better data. So 8 years ago he began Integrity Insitu. We discussed the challenges, successes, learning opportunities, and the future of their product. Exciting times as when this product comes to market, he’s dreaming big and can even see the application to be utilized on Mars.

Our second "real doctor" joins our fake Doctor (Funkenstein) to provide us with an update from Aggieland on the state of Petroleum Engineering Education. Dr Jeff Spath, Texas A&M Petroleum Engineering Department Head, has had a full career - 30+ years at Schlumberger - is giving back by leading the department through the Energy Transition. The Professor schooled us on what it was like being an educator during COVID, recruiting students, and how to transition while the world is “transitioning.” Bonus: T-Lo geeks out on Aggie stuff, quite literally his favorite thing to do. The post Aggie Engineering and Math with Dr. Jeff Spath on Tripping Over The Barrel first appeared on Digital Wildcatters.

Ethan and I sit down to discuss the pursuit of happiness and how to achieve it! What I really dig about Ethan, is that during our podcast we got into how he is actively passionate about having a mindset of happiness as well as advocating that for others. Whether it’s working out, putting on some elevator jazz and unwinding when he gets home, or pursuing a passion outside the oilfield. One thing is clear though: you must actively and consciously disconnect from the noise that’s always around us. We discussed him hiking Mt Kilimanjaro, horror movies, how he differentiates his plugs when it seems there are so many companies offering the same product, and much much more.

It was a blast catching up with my great buddy Richard Mercer (Assistant VP - Citi) at his home in Katy, on my way to San Antonio. Richard and I have known each other for years, and to finally sit behind the mic and catch up with him with all the changes in his life was great. We chatted about how he started off at Texas A&M University, then going into #drilling at Occidental for the majority of his career there. Then making a move to reservoir to better understand why decisions were being made the way they were. We discussed him pursuing his MBA at Rice University and pivoting his career into banking. Of course we spoke about his involvement at Spindletop Charities and how it’s personal as he received a scholarship from them in high school/college. The work they do around the Houston community is impactful, not just in the funds donated, but in the time and effort they volunteer for the community.

Marketplaces are hot! Why would the Pipe business be any different? Operators order more pipe than they need because they can't afford the opportunity cost of coming up short when it's go time. Conversely, during a supply crunch you can't get the pipe you need to get started. Pipesearch (https://pipesearch.com/) solves this as a peer to peer marketplace for pipe.
