Episode 134 of the PetroNerds podcast is a true PetroNerds special and an incredible deep dive into geopolitics, the economy, and what it all means for the oil and gas industry. Trisha Curtis, CEO of PetroNerds and host of the PetroNerds podcast, front-loads this podcast with a fresh market update focusing on Iran and oil prices.
In the introduction of this podcast, Trisha discusses oil prices and Iran, the Federal Reserve and interest rates, and the economy and oil prices.
The body of the podcast is Trisha's keynote fireside chat with Todd Hoffman at Montana Tech's annual symposium. Todd Hoffman is the head of the Petroleum Engineering Department at Montana Tech in Butte, Montana. He sits down with Trisha to discuss oil prices, the Trump Administration, tariffs, China, Iran, Russia, and everything in between.
They get into Trisha's background and business, the health of the economy and the consumer, China's product dumping and the state of the Chinese economy, what Drill Baby Drill actually means, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), Europe's exposure to China, Venezuelan sanctions, and a whole lot more.
