Harold Hamm
Harold Hamm is the legendary founder and executive chairman of Continental Resources, a large, privately owned drilling company. Hamm is, along with George Mitchell, Aubrey McClendon, and a few others, one of the original pioneers who figured out how to combine fracking with horizontal drilling to access previously trapped oil in shale deposits. Hamm’s claim to fame is drilling in the mighty Bakken oil fields of North Dakota. Harold Hamm is, by all accounts, one of the biggest frackers in the world. He's also a big fan of Donald J. Trump and helped coral donors from the oil and gas industry to donate money to Trump's campaign. Although Hamm won't have an official role in the new administration, he does have four energy goals for the next administration to tackle.
