Wealthion, Released on 1/18/22

We’ve all seen energy prices skyrocket over the past year — for the oil & natural gas that heat our homes, the electricity we use, and the gasoline we put in our cars. And certain parts of the world have been concerned about simply getting “enough” energy — at whatever the price — to see them through the winter. Why did energy suddenly become so in demand, and how did it get so expensive so quickly? How soon until they come down again? WILL they come down again?? For the answers, we turn to energy expert & petroleum geologist Art Berman.

Arthur Berman is a petroleum geologist with 37 years of oil and gas industry experience. He is an expert on U.S. shale plays and currently consults for several E&P companies and capital groups in the energy sector. Art has published more than 100 articles on oil and gas plays and trends and been interviewed by CBS, CNBC, CNN, CBC, BNN, Bloomberg, Platt’s, Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, Rolling Stone and New York Times. He is also an associate editor of the AAPG Bulletin and was a managing editor and frequent contributor to theoildrum.com. Art worked 20 years for Amoco (now BP) and 17 years as consulting geologist. He has an M.S. (Geology) from the Colorado School of Mines and a B.A. (History) from Amherst College.

Adam Taggart is the Founder of Wealthion. He is also Co-Founder and former President of Peak Prosperity. Adam is an experienced Silicon Valley internet executive and Stanford MBA. Prior to partnering with Chris Martenson (Adam was General Manager of our earlier site, ChrisMartenson.com), he was a Vice President at Yahoo!, a company he served for nine years. Before that, he did the ‘startup thing’ (mySimon.com, sold to CNET in 2001). As a fresh-faced graduate from Brown University in the early 1990s, Adam got a first-hand look at all that was broken with Wall Street as an investment banking analyst for Merrill Lynch. Most importantly, he’s a devoted husband and dad.
