I am here today to testify on behalf of the Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA) which represents the interests of our nation’s 7,000 independent producers which produce approximately 40 percent of America’s crude oil and 66 percent of America’s natural gas. I am also testifying on behalf of the National Stripper Well Association (NSWA), which represents the small business operators in the oil and natural gas industry, producers with low volume, high cost stripper or marginal oil and natural gas wells.
