Board Of Directors
The Texas Oil & Gas Association (TXOGA) is a statewide trade association representing every facet of the Texas oil and gas industry including small independents and major producers. Collectively, the membership of TXOGA produces approximately 90 percent of Texas’ crude oil and natural gas and operates the vast majority of the state’s refineries, LNG export capacity and pipelines, and includes a broad array of service companies integral to the industry. In fiscal year 2025, the Texas oil and natural gas industry supported over 495,000 direct jobs and paid $27 billion in state and local taxes and state royalties, funding our state’s schools, roads and first responders.
The activities of the Association are governed by the Board of Directors, comprised of approximately 50 industry leaders.
