What an exciting time to be in natural gas! Innovations in technology and the creativity of our industry have driven significant progress over the past decade.

As U.S. and global populations push for more American gas, increasing demands from power generation, data storage, and geopolitical shifts continue to shape the natural gas sector. From all angles, these demands for natural gas show no signs of slowing soon, but one constant remains: energy must be reliable. Our customers depend on us to deliver safe, affordable, and environmentally responsible solutions.

While the natural gas industry’s track record is a source of pride, we must never rest. To truly succeed, we need to advance the message that natural gas is the answer for a reliable energy future —and deliver on that promise to our customers every single day.

We are united in this calling, building on the legacy of previous generations who prepared us to meet today’s challenges. As we move forward, our operations must continue to adapt and evolve, embracing modern tools and techniques that enhance reliability, affordability, and security.

So, how will SGA drive the natural gas industry forward? By uniting our entire value chain, SGA creates a dynamic network that fosters collaboration and end-to-end solutions. We cannot rely solely on past successes or work in isolation. Instead, our strength lies in bringing together seasoned industry leaders and fresh voices alike, accelerating the sharing of best practices and innovative technologies.

As members of SGA bring voices from every part of the natural gas industry, we are uniting for a reliable energy future. Together, we will create a lasting impact and greatest value for our families, businesses, communities, economy and nation.
