Legendary investor and NGV champion T. Boone Pickens has agreed to
deliver the keynote address to World LNG Fuels 2014, Jan. 22, in
Houston. The conference, which is the largest and oldest on
liquefied natural gas (LNG) as fuel, covers the growing trend by
heavy-duty fleets to fuel with natural gas. LNG tends to be
preferred fleets of highway trucks, locomotives, ships and
stationary power units due its higher storage density than
compressed natural gas.
"No one has had a greater impact on the use of American natural
gas for transportation than T. Boone Pickens," said Bob Nimocks,
head of the conference program committee and president of Zeus
Development Corporation, an energy analyst and information
provider. "Since the early 1990s, he has had a vision of how to
make America energy independent with natural gas. We're delighted
delegates will be able to learn from his insights and
perspectives."
Heralded as one of America's most successful businessmen, T.
Boone Pickens first built one of the country's largest independent
oil companies, Mesa Petroleum. Then, he founded one of its most
successful investment funds, BP Capital. In 2008, he authored the
Pickens Plan (www.PickensPlan.com), which has spurred a grass-roots
campaign to reduce U.S. dependence on imported oil.
A staunch advocate for American energy independence, Mr. Pickens
aggressively pursues a wide range of business interests in
alternative energy, including the NASDAQ-traded, Clean Energy Fuels
(NASDAQ: CLNE), which founded and took public in May 2008. Mr.
Pickens can be followed on Twitter @boonepickens.
World LNG Fuels 2014 will be held at the George R Brown
Convention Center in Houston, Jan. 21-23. The industry event will
feature exhibitions of LNG fuel equipment and vehicles, tours of
facilities and more than 50 presentations by executives leading the
market. Information is available online www.worldlngfuels.com.
