Colter Cookson is the business editor at The American Oil & Gas Reporter. Colter Cookson writes articles for a trade journal serving the exploration and production or upstream segment of the U.S. oil and gas industry. He’s especially interested in technologies and best practices related to drilling, hydraulic fracturing, artificial lift, enhanced oil recovery, oil field chemistry, emissions management, oil field safety, and cybersecurity.

He says, "My main goal is to emphasize that I’m in the upstream space, not the midstream (pipelines and gas processing plants) or downstream (refining and utilities) space."
