They are driven to advance our mission supporting independent oil and gas producers and the industry at large,” said Jason Modglin, President of the Texas Alliance of Energy Producers. “Houston has the industry experience and a unique heritage with this organization that will help guide us over the next few years.” “The Alliance has been and continues to be an important institution for independent oil and gas producers,” said Sullivan. “It is an honor and privilege to serve the Alliance as Board Chair as the industry ramps back up amid hostility to domestic production and geopolitical turmoil abroad.” Outgoing chairman Cye Wagner, with Cooper Oil & Gas in Fort Worth, is now serving as the chairman of the board for the Texas Alliance Oil & Gas Political Action Committee (PAC).
