Marathon Oil regional vice president Steven P. Guidry Tuesday
America's energy security will be the subject of a talk by Marathon Oil regional vice president Steven P. Guidry Tuesday, Feb. 19, at 2 p.m. in the University of Wyoming Union Yellowstone Ballroom.
The UW School of Energy Resources, the College of Engineering and Applied Science
and the Department of Geology sponsor the free talk through a speakers series offered
by the American Petroleum Institute (API).
Guidry will present a comprehensive strategy to achieve America's energy security
and economic competitiveness in the face of a dramatically increasing global demand
for energy. He will outline how the United States can secure sufficient quantities
of reliable, affordable energy, while safeguarding the environment, in order to win
the global race for energy.
"He will focus on presenting balanced solutions that include a concentration on energy
efficiency, diversity of supply and technology," according to an API release.
Following the talk from 3-4 p.m., API's interactive technology exhibition can be
viewed in the ballroom. It shows how America's oil and natural gas companies use highly
efficient and technologically advanced strategies to deliver energy security for future
generations. Methods include 3-D and 4-D visualization (based on seismic technology),
directional drilling and deepwater drill ships.
Guidry is Marathon's regional vice president, U.S. Production Operations. He is responsible
for all of Marathon's onshore and offshore production operations which currently include
those located in Alaska, Colorado, Oklahoma, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Louisiana,
Wyoming and the Gulf of Mexico.
