WHERE TO FIND ENERGY PRIVATE EQUITY FORUMS

All right boys,

Can you recommend any forums where I could approach people with interests in energy projects (OIL&GAS)?

I was on reddit and i did find two, but i was just wondering maybe there are some other channels that i might not be aware of. 

So basically I m looking for OIL&GAS investors. Thanks!

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some recommendations for forums and channels where you can connect with people interested in energy projects, specifically in Oil & Gas:

  1. Wall Street Oasis (WSO) Forums:

    • Investment Banking Forum: This forum has various discussions related to Oil & Gas banking, including breaking into the field, primers, and transitioning from engineering roles to investment banking.
    • Sales and Trading Forum: You can find threads where energy traders discuss market trends and connect with other professionals in the energy trading space.
  2. Networking Events and Seminars:

    • Attending industry-specific networking events, seminars, and conferences can be highly effective. These events are often filled with professionals from your target industry and can provide opportunities to meet potential investors and mentors.

How is that possible? I am looking at the level of US reserves and it is obvious that without deploying capital on some sort of international partnerships, what are they going to do? My take on this is that in 10 years time , everyone will want to be in oil&gas. And alternatives are dust in the eyes.
