HOUSTON, April 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Renowned energy expert Matt Simmons will
discuss the sobering state of the oil and gas industry -- from the natural gas
glut to the Obama Administration's energy policy and the growing talent vacuum
-- in a special Oil and Gas Investor presentation on Thursday, April 30, 10
a.m. CDT, from his remarks at the "Strategies for High Performance in Volatile
Times" conference. To register and learn more about this webinar, visit

All registrants will receive a complimentary copy of Hart's VISION 2009:
Global Energy Outlook special report - a $99 value.

A few of Simmons' comments in this 50-minute webinar include:

-- "The gas glut is a joke; it's not real...What a tragedy to destroy our most
valuable natural resource -- because of bad data."

-- "It is alarming to see 100% of the focus (in Washington) on climate change
and none on supply."

-- "Some 15% (of oilfield workers) are young and untrained, and 85% are within
a few years of retirement. That's not Houston or Dubai -- that's worldwide."

-- "The EIA supply model is fantasy land. We are now in the process of
destroying the U.S. gas industry."

-- "What is a fair price for oil? ... I think $150 was too low."

Mr. Simmons, who founded oilfield investment-banking firm Simmons & Company
International, also touches on ethanol, wind power, the rusting of energy
infrastructure, industry layoffs, college recruiting, Kazakhstan's Kashagan
Field and much more.
