Makin’ Energy

In Louisiana, we don’t just make groceries, we make energy. Join our host, Jennifer Crockett, as she talks with industry leaders and experts on how Makin’ Energy in Louisiana is who we are. The oil and natural gas industry is the backbone of Louisiana’s economy, provides jobs to our friends and families, supplies us with the products we use in our everyday life and invests in our coast. Every day, nearly half a million Louisiana residents are working for the state’s top coastal protection investor, an industry bringing home $16 billion to the state annually and pumping out one-fourth of America’s independent energy supply. And Louisiana’s oil and natural gas industry is growing. Subscribe to this 7-part series and come along each Thursday this fall as we dive into how the industry is leading in the innovative energy evolution.
