SPE Fort Worth

Notes from the Board of Directors

That’s a wrap.

Our 2024-25 Speaker Season has ended and it’s time for summer.  Hopefully that means vacations, BBQ in the backyard, or maybe just a free weekend for a change.  Our new board of directors will be assuming their new roles when we begin the 2025-26 Speaker Season. This will include Aaron Barbato as Chairman, Gladys Leal as Secretary/Treasurer, Deanna Poindexter as Programs, Isabella Vigil on Scholarships, and Katherine Nunley over Social Activities. Assisting them on the board with fundraising for scholarships are Juan Venturi (Golf) and Logan Vitello (Clay Shoot). Welcome to our new (and returning) board members!

Speaking of fundraising, we held the 25th Annual Sporting Clay Tournament last week.  It was a great day with 18 teams participating and raising a little over $12,000. That’s enough to support one student for 4 years. Thank you to everyone who was a part of this great event!  

This event and our annual golf tournament are the primary ways we raise funds for scholarships to encourage students to pursue career opportunities in the Oil and Gas Industry. Mark your calendar now for our 41st Annual Golf Tournament coming in October. Registration will open in early September.

Our 2025-26 Speaker Season is starting to shape up nicely with DL Randy Seright coming in November to talk about reinvigorated polymer flooding, and DL Mateus Schwalbert in January 2026 to present on improving well performance in carbonate reservoirs. Check out the events tab on our website for the latest information on these and more.


Stay safe this summer, and we hope to see you all when we get back together in September.


Best Regards,

SPE Fort Worth Board of Directors
