Powering the Future: How AI, Natural Gas, and Midstream Innovation Are Shaping America’s Energy Landscape

In this episode of Energy Newsbeat – Conversations in Energy, Stu Turley sits down with Adam Hirschfeld, SVP of Workrise, to discuss the evolving landscape of the oil and gas industry. They dive into the impact of AI on energy demand, the challenges of permitting reforms, and the future of natural gas, microgrids, and decentralized grid management. Adam also shares insights into the growing role of midstream infrastructure, the shift towards AI-driven data centers, and how the energy sector is adapting to meet the increasing demand, all while navigating regulatory hurdles and workforce challenges.While we evaluate oil and gas deals at Sandstone and Energy News Beat, E&P operators doing the work rely on Workrise to help get the projects moving on time and on budget. We hear great things from our oil and gas companies about their performance and hard work in keeping project deadlines.This is an unsung and often overlooked critical cog in the Energy Dominance push by the Trump adminstration.Connect with Adam on his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-hirschfeld-09403ba/Check out Workrise: https://www.workrise.com/Huge Guests Covering Energy DominanceWe have some great guests lined up, and we are planning a trip to Washington, DC.
