Very satisfying to hand the reins over to Brian and the team that has accomplished so much and had my back for the last 11 years. It's been the best experience of my professional life. Looking forward to helping push the bus from the board room, and watching Jonah grow from the foundation we've built together.

Jonah Energy founder, president and CEO Tom Hart is retiring, after founding the company 11 years ago with the major acquisition of the Jonah Field in Western Wyoming. Tom successfully led Jonah Energy through extremely volatile market challenges, policy shifts of three presidential administrations and ultimately significant growth and stability. Tom’s visionary approach on environmental stewardship positioned a newly formed small independent operator in Wyoming into one of the nation’s leading natural gas producers on responsible and sustainable development. Jonah has developed cutting edge, and award winning, programs on methane emission reductions, surface reclamation and wildlife protection measures. Tom’s most enduring legacy at Jonah Energy is the fierce loyalty and commitment of his team. He was passionate about the most important asset of Jonah Energy, our people. Brian Reger has been promoted to President and Chief Operating Officer to lead Jonah into our next chapter. He previously served as Senior Vice President-Asset Development and in various Business Development and Reservoir Engineering leadership roles since joining Jonah in March 2016. https://lnkd.in/gTuSrZF7
