Chesapeake COO Says NatGas is Part of Solution to Low-Carbon Future

Among the speakers who addressed the conference delegates at Hart Energy's DUG East conference on Tuesday was Chesapeake Energy COO Josh Viets. He traced the roots of the current energy crisis back to decisions and events some 20 years ago. Viets said, "Access to energy correlates to quality of life, and the industry has a responsibility to work to provide energy that is affordable, reliable and low-carbon." Europe, said Viet, dropped the ball beginning 20 years ago by buying into the hype about so-called renewable energy and forsaking fossil fuel development, while the U.S. invested in fracking and fossil fuels, leading to our energy independence under Donald J. Trump.
