    April 8, 2020 The Honorable Wayne Christian The Honorable Christi Craddick The Honorable Ryan Sitton Railroad Commission of Texas P.O. Box 12967 Austin, Texas 78711-2967 Submitted via email to [email protected]. RE: Comments by Public Citizen on Verified complaint of Pioneer Natural Resources U.S.A. Inc. and Parsley Energy Inc to determine reasonable market demand for oil in the state of Texas Public Citizen appreciates the opportunity to provide these comments. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss our recommendations further. Please contact Texas office director Adrian Shelley at [email protected], 713-702-8063. I. Current Market Forces Demand A Cut in Production The Railroad Commission must act now to curtail production through proration. We join Environment Texas and others in calling for proration to occur based on company waste through flaring and other pollution emissions. Proration to curtail oil production in Texas is now necessary due to current market forces. Texas and the nation are experiencing historic surplus and low prices. Supply now exceeds demand and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. There are a number of reasons why. a. Global supply surplus There is a global supply surplus caused by an ongoing war for market share between Saudi Arabia and Russia. Railroad Commissioner Ryan Sitton estimates a global market surplus of 10 to 15 percent, roughly 10 to 15 million barrels/day.1 Petitioners assert that a production surplus could overwhelm the handling, processing, and storage industries. This risk to certain industry participants is one reason petitioners ask for proration.

  • Rigged: the Oil and Gas Industry Bankrolls Its Own Regulators
    Rigged: The Oil and Gas Industry Bankrolls Its Own Regulators “This whole election is being rigged.” –The Donald Trump The three sitting members of the misnamed Texas Railroad Commission conservatively took 60 percent of the more than $11 million that they raised in recent years from the oil and gas industry that they regulate. The No. 2 source of political funding for these commissioners was the Lawyers & Lobbyists sector, which accounts for another 7 percent of the commissioners’ cash. With many of these attorneys representing clients before the agency, the two industries pressing the most business before the commissioners supply 67 percent of their funding. Oil and gas interests alone also supplied 65 percent of the money reported by the candidate most likely to win this week’s Railroad Commission race. Money Raised by Current Commissioners (Since January 2010) Commissioner Year Itemized Oil & Gas Oil & Gas Fundraising (Party) Elected Contributions Amount Percent Period Christi Craddick (R) 2012 $4,874,193 $2,712,424 56% 7/2011 thru 6/2016 Ryan Sitton (R) 2014 $3,688,668 $2,166,202 59% 9/2013 thru 6/2016 David Porter (R) 2010 $2,558,551 $1,749,176 68% 1/2010 thru 6/2016 TOTALS $11,121,412 $6,627,802 60% This report analyzes the itemized campaign contributions of the three sitting commissioners and the four 2016 finalists seeking the seat of retiring Commissioner David Porter. Where appropriate, this study tracks money raised as far back as 2010, when Porter first ran for his seat. Long a major player in Texas politics, the energy industry has an especially outsized role in bankrolling its own regulators.

  • VERTICAL TARGET June 18 2015 Layout 1
    VOLUME 18, NO. 12 THE TIPRO TARGET June 18, 2015 DAVID PORTER UNANIMOUSLY ELECTED CHAIRMAN OF Texas TEXAS RAILROAD COMMISSION Independent Producers and During the Railroad Commission’s Open Meeting on June 9, 2015, David Porter was unanimously elected to serve as chairman of the state agency. Chairman Porter has served as Railroad Commissioner Royalty Owners since he was elected statewide by the people of Texas in November 2010. During his term at the Association commission, Chairman Porter has led several oil and gas initiatives. Upon taking office in 2011, Chairman Porter created the Eagle Ford Shale Task Force, the first of its kind at the Railroad Commission, to establish a forum that brings the community together to foster a productive and forward-looking dialogue regarding drilling activities in the Eagle Ford Shale. Later, in 2013, Chairman Porter also launched his Texas Natural Gas Initiative: a series of statewide events that bring stakeholders together to discuss business opportunities, challenges and regulatory barriers and solutions for natural gas conversion and infrastructure – focusing largely on the transportation and exploration and production sectors. In the last four years, Chairman Porter has been appointed to the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission as the official representative of Texas and currently serves as second vice-president of the organization. In addition, he is an advisory board member for the Texas Journal of Oil, Gas, and Energy Law. From 2011-2014, Chairman Porter also served as the official representative on the Interstate Mining Compact Commission. “As Railroad Commissioners, it is our job to make sure industry produces efficiently and economically, and does so in the safest, most responsible manner possible.
