Frank Maisano, senior principal in Bracewell’s Policy Resolution Group, told S&P Global that Chris Wright, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to run the Department of Energy, is “a very smart individual who has a deep understanding of the oil and gas industry and the importance of energy dominance.”
“He will be able to dig through the nuance and the complexities in our energy policy and help us continue to drive forward to provide innovation and new technologies that can meet consumer needs reliably and affordably while still providing important energy safeguards and reduce emissions,” added Maisano.
