Episode 30 of "In The Oil Patch"
This week on "In The Oil Patch": host Kym Bolado and her co-hosts Alvin Bailey and Roy Holley have another great show lined up for you! David Blackmon is an expert in the oil & gas industry with over 30 years of experience and he is one of our resident experts on the show. Blackmon extends his opinion that the oil & gas industry, while in a slight decline, is showing promise in many areas. He affirms that the Export Ban, being the extremely controversial topic that it is, can turn around the economy as well as the entire oil & gas industry if lifted. The Environmental Protection Agency, Iran, OPEC and the Obama administration are all topics Blackmon won't shy away from in this interview.
