- [From Wellhead to Gas Pump: How America’s Oil Supply Chain Works](https://energymatters.org/from-wellhead-to-gas-pump-how-americas-oil-supply-chain-works/): Most people interact with the oil supply chain every time they fill up their tank, but few know how much happens before that gallon of gasoline arrives at the pump. The oil and natural gas industry is often talked about as a single entity, but it's actually made up of distinct segments, each with different infrastructure, regulations, and economics. Understanding those segments is essential context for nearly every energy policy debate in Washington.
- [American Energy Policy Center Launches to Advance Energy Education for Policymakers and Stakeholders](https://energymatters.org/american-energy-policy-center-launches/): WASHINGTON, D.C. – The American Energy Policy Center (AEPC) today announced its official launch as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing energy literacy through nonpartisan education. Through interactive and experiential learning, AEPC will equip policymakers, stakeholders, and the public with a deeper understanding of how oil and natural gas power America's economy, strengthen national security, improve environmental outcomes, and create thriving communities. 
- [Energy Up Close: AEPC Field Tours](https://energymatters.org/energy-up-close-aepc-field-tours/): Good energy policy depends on a practical understanding of how energy is actually produced, moved, and used. That's not something you can get from a briefing book or Hill meeting alone. AEPC's field tour program exists to bring energy education to life, providing direct, firsthand experience with the operations, communities, and challenges that define the American oil and natural gas industry.  AEPC's field tours will bring policymakers and key stakeholders directly to working oil and natural gas operations across the country. Participants won't be sitting in a conference room watching a slide deck. They'll be standing on a well pad in the Permian Basin watching an electrified hydraulic fracturing operation. They'll be talking to a multi-generational Wyoming rancher about how his land has been managed alongside energy production for decades. They'll be hearing from a Bureau of Land Management field office in New Mexico about the permitting process; not as policy abstraction, but as day-to-day operational reality
