Jim Wright on Oil and Gas Startups Podcast
What's up wildcatter nation. Thanks for tuning in and joining us for another episode. You might remember that we had Railroad Commissioner, Ryan Sitton, on the show a few months back and we talked about how he had lost the Republican nomination and how he's going back to the private sector. Well, we just so happened to meet the man who beat him - Mr. Jim Wright. It's a crazy election year and I'm honestly sick of politics. But this industry is near and dear to our hearts and so we wanted to answer the question; Who is Jim Wright?

Transect on Oil and Gas Startups
One thing we think is really unique about many of the guests we have on the show, is the problems they’re solving are problems you couldn’t necessarily identify right out of school – you have to have some sort of experience in that field. Robin and Sam Laine of Transect join us this week to chat about how their previous careers in Environmental Consulting & Real Estate Development led to identifying a huge problem in the environmental due-diligence process and how they built Transect to solve that problem.

Salesforce | Jason Olbekson on Oil and Gas Startups
You may have seen the headlines recently that ExxonMobil was dropped from the S&P 500 and replaced by Salesforce. You probably know who Salesforce is but for those who don’t – Salesforce started off as a Customer Relationship Software and then they quickly became the leader in that sector and have since become more of a technology firm and are now one of the largest companies in the world.So the only proper thing to do was to have Global Industry Director of Oil and Gas at Salesforce, Jason Olbekson on to chat about the work they’re doing in the industry and most importantly, how some of their technology and various platforms can be used to develop different industries software of the future.
