Future of petroleum topic addressed at Hope Rotary
Jim Wooten of the Arkansas Petroleum Council spoke at the Hope Rotary Club luncheon in the Sheraton Inn on Where Do We Go From Here with Petroleum. He warned of serious difficulty and urged deregulating natural gas as the least inflationary solution while noting proposed legislation diverting gas to the northeast harms some areas and benefits others. He argued for energy independence and cited 25 billion paid to Arab countries last year for oil amidst questions of government control.
