On this episode of Oil & Gas Rundown LIVE, host Rachel Griffith is joined by Jay Young, Founder & CEO of King Operating Corporation, Mark Ayers, EVP of Geology, and Bill Phillips, EVP of Land and Business Development.

The team discusses what is driving oil prices back near the $100 range, what consumers and investors should watch in the weeks ahead, and what falling crude and gasoline inventories could mean heading into summer driving season.

They also break down why natural gas remains one of the biggest energy stories right now as power demand grows from data centers, electrification, and infrastructure needs.
