Mr. Petak has more than 22 years of experience in the energy industry. Mr. Petak has directed numerous energy market analyses to support strategic planning needs at energy companies, including natural gas producers, pipelines, and energy marketing affiliates. These analyses have investigated, among other factors, the impact of pipeline expansions on gas prices, the effect of weather and oil prices on gas markets, strategies to comply with stricter emissions regulations, use of oil backup in power generation to assure system reliability, and the impact of declining productivity on gas price. These analyses have been widely used to support facilities/fuels/contracts management and planning, mergers and acquisitions, investment decisions, risk management, and hedge strategies.
