#QualityMatters Podcast Episode Ep 135 – Small Biz DOMINATES Oil & Gas – with Mark LaCour of OGGN

Ep 135 – Small Biz DOMINATES Oil & Gas – with Mark LaCour of OGGN

We’re back! We apologize for the pause in new episodes for #QualityMatters, but we’re back! Today we’re diving into a topic that Kyle is very passionate about, the role of small business in Oil & Gas here in America. The simple fact is, the super majors like Chevron and Exon do not play near the role in Oil & Gas extraction for the average American as small business does.

Reminder During The COVID-19 Crisis: The Oil and Natural Gas Industry is Dominated by Small Businesses

Size of Firms by Number of Employees Percent of Total Employer Firms in the Drilling Oil and Gas Wells Sector

Less than 20         80.5%
Less than 100         93.4%
Less than 500         97.4%

Support Activities for Oil and Gas Operations

Size of Firms by Number of Employees Percent of Total Employer Firms in the Support Activities for Oil and Gas Operations Sector

The role of newly evolving ESG “Environmental – Social – Governance” requirements is placing additional requirements on small business.  But this is not all bad news.  The small businesses and teams that are prepared to implement, and quickly and more efficiently than the larger or otherwise slower counterparts are in a great position to dominate their space and stay competitive.
