Chris Faulkner, Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer Breitling Energy Corporation (OTC: BECC), is the driving force behind the company’s extraordinary growth, technology innovations and strategic approach to oil and gas exploration and production.

Mr. Faulkner brings a unique perspective to energy policy conversations in Washington, DC. While he understands the granular details of energy production–from the technical to the financial aspects—he has a global view of energy policy. He’s a trusted source of information for lawmakers on Capitol Hill, journalists and Washington policy analysts from respected think tanks. Mr. Faulkner kicked off the Natural Gas Roundtable luncheon series of 2014 in Washington and the CSIS/USAEE annual energy policy conference in Washington.

Informally dubbed “Frack Master” in the media for his unapologetic and outspoken industry advocacy, Mr. Faulkner was named Industry Leader of the Year in 2013 by the Oil & Gas Awards for the Southwest Region, Oil Executive of the Year in 2013 by the American Energy Research Group, and recognized in the “Dallas Who’s Who in Energy” in 2012 and 2013.
