Wyoming Pipeline Corridor Initiative
The Wyoming Oil and Gas Fair is pleased to present Mr. Matt Fry as a speaker for the Wyoming Oil & Gas Fair Virtual Series event.
This webinar will focus on the Wyoming Pipeline Corridor Initiative (WPCI). WPCI established corridors on public lands dedicated to future use of pipelines associated with carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and delivery of associated petroleum products.
About the Presenter, Matt Fry
Matt Fry is the State and Regional Policy Manager, supporting the Carbon Management program, at the Great Plains Institute. Matt has over 20 years of experience in natural resource management, regulation and policy in both the public and private sectors. Matt served as a Senior Policy Advisor to Wyoming Governor, Matt Mead, where he focused on natural resource, energy and CCUS policy. Additionally, he developed and managed the Wyoming Pipeline Corridor Initiative (WPCI), which was a project that culminated with a federal authorization for a statewide pipeline corridor system in Wyoming intended to facilitate development of CO2 pipeline infrastructure and incentivize CCUS project deployment.
Matt earned a Bachelor of Science in biology and chemistry from Davis & Elkins College, and a Master’s in Natural Resource Law from the University of Denver – Sturm College of Law.

CONTINUING EDUCATION PRESENTATION, Ron Auflick Retired-Wold Energy Partners
Friday, November 12, 2021

Presentation: 8:00 to 11:30 am
Cost: $60/person (cash/check)
RSVP by Nov 4 to
Imagine a calm hot day in California or a cold day in Texas, what do they have in common? With the impending energy shortage (natural gas and oil) and the inability of green energy to step up, can todays’ energy professionals use their historically proven talents to innovate and deliver? On November 12th Ron Auflick will look at the oil industry using his 40 + year perspective and share ideas on where the energy industry has to go. Innovations advancing the shale revolution into territories where stimulation is banned will be one of the key take away from his offerings. Additionally the emerging love of geothermal will be dissected. Can existing oil and gas wells be converted to geothermal? See how focusing the talents of today’s oil professionals may be the key to growth in geothermal.
Ron Auflick is a Casper based engineer that has over 41 years of diverse domestic and international experience. Some of you may have attended previous SPE short course he taught (2010 and 2015). Focusing on directional, horizontal and extended reach drilling, Ron has been directly involved in hundreds of unconventionals in 10 states and some 31 countries including the current world record ERD wells. Departing from Oil & Gas, in 2021 he partnered with three other oil professions and now is focused on geothermal. Ron has authored papers or given presentations for PAW, WGA, SPE, AADE, Wyoming Oil & Gas Fair, American OIL & Gas Reporter, Oilfield Review, and for American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
