Pickens claims own path to power in Catalyst Energy
Tom Boone Pickens II, 32, chairman of Catalyst Energy Corp, built his own path in business avoiding his father Boone Pickens Jr. He bought Catalyst in 1983 with personal and Great Lakes Group funds, aiming for stable cash flow from independent power. He notes a cautious approach to takeovers, while pursuing growth via acquisitions such as the Merrimac floating plant.
