NGEAO Connection Newsletter Natural Gas & Energy Association of Oklahoma Save the Dates 4rd Quarter 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award Recipients •1-10,-13 Tulsa Luncheon www.ngeao.org 918-995-7133 For the first time ever, NGEAO presented Lifetime Achievement Awards to three long term members for their dedication of time and effort to NGEAO, its events and causes. What makes NGEAO great is the members, and as members of an organization that is 47 years old, it is time to recognize those who are instrumental in developing the incredible organization we have today, including the educational and scholarship programs. This award will be presented annually to a member(s) for outstanding contributions to the industry and the organization. •2-14-13 OKC Luncheon •March/April Tentative Daniel Yergen Reception After considering many worthy candidates this year, the board chose three members for the first Lifetime Achievement Award: Diana Cox, Marketing Representative at Kaiser-Francis Oil, Rick Fitzgerald, Director Producer Services at ConocoPhillips and Linda Roberts, Manager Business Development Centerpoint Gas Transmission. Diana has been a long term Board member, serving as Treasurer, Secretary and Annual Conference Chair. Diana was the catalyst for growth of the Annual Conference. In fact, it was Diana who was the one responsible for moving the conference to the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino! Rick is a 20 year member of NGEAO, who has been continuously involved in the educational efforts of the organization for the members and the industry through OERB. He has also been a driving force behind our partnership with the Universities. Linda has 37 years as an NGEAO member, despite often being employed outside Oklahoma. She founded the informal gathering of women referred to as Gas Hags (Hard-working Able Gas Staff), and hosts a luncheon for the group during the annual conference. In 1976, she was one of two women members of the “Natural Gas Men’s Association of Oklahoma” (NGEAO’s earlier name), and back then was not allowed on the 14th floor of the Petroleum Club which excluded women on the floor where the men ate and played cards during lunch time.

The refinery is a catalytic cracking/delayed coking refinery that processes moderately heavy, medium sulfur crude oil from a broad array of domestic and international sources and predominantly produces clean transportation products such as gasoline, diesel fuels, and propane. It is located 100 miles from Cushing, OK, a vast supply source, and provides unbranded petroleum products to customers in the midcontinent states.
