Announcing Project BRIEF and Energy In Depth
Project BRIEF (Bringing Real Information on Energy Forward) is a comprehensive and quantitative research project that seeks to illuminate the real facts behind one of the most misunderstood industries in the nation. PBPA, in collaboration with the Independent Petroleum Association and other cooperating state associations, developed the project to help people better understand the oil and gas industry and today’s issues. Researchers compiled their findings into three reports, each focusing on a different aspect of the energy industry: the history and progress of effective state regulation, the role of the federal government and the potential economic consequences of proposed regulations.
Energy in Depth (EID) is the initial product developed from the BRIEF initiative. Learn more via the Energy In Depth website.
