  • Permian Power Players: Roughnecks, Wildcatters, and the UT System's Black Gold Bonanza

    Permian Power Players: Roughnecks, Wildcatters, and the UT System's Black Gold Bonanza
    Jan 31 2025
    This is your Y'all Street: The Real Money of West Texas Oil podcast.

    Welcome to Y'all Street: The Real Money of West Texas Oil. I'm your host, and today we're diving into the heart of America's most productive oilfield, the Permian Basin.

    Imagine a place where the sun beats down relentlessly, where the land stretches out in endless plains, and where the oil flows like liquid gold. This is West Texas, where the Permian Basin has become the epicenter of the U.S. oil industry. But who are the power players behind this boom, and how does the money flow?

    Let's start with the University of Texas System, which controls a vast chunk of the Permian Basin's oil-rich land. The UT System's Permanent University Fund has grown from $10.7 billion in 2010 to a staggering $19.5 billion, thanks to the fracking boom. This fund supports an endowment for the UT and Texas A&M University systems, making them some of the richest educational institutions in the world[1].

    But the UT System isn't the only one cashing in. The state of Texas itself has seen a windfall from the oil and gas industry. In 2019, Texas oil and gas producers directly contributed a record $13.4 billion to the state Treasury in the form of taxes and royalties. The Permian Basin accounted for a whopping $9 billion of that, or 67 percent of the total. That's equivalent to $937 per year for a family of three, or $312 for every man, woman, and child in the state[3].

    So, who are the people behind these numbers? Meet the roughnecks and wildcatters, the men and women who work tirelessly to extract the oil from the ground. They're the ones who have seen their lives turned upside down by the boom, who have made fortunes and lost loved ones in the process. Christian Wallace, a journalist from Texas Monthly, has spent years documenting their stories in his podcast, Boomtown. He's seen firsthand the impact of the oil industry on the people and the land of West Texas[2].

    But the money doesn't just stop at the wellhead. It flows through the pipelines, into the refineries, and out to the global markets. The Port of Corpus Christi has become a key player in this process, with daily oil exports skyrocketing from 83,000 barrels in 2016 to 2.1 million barrels in 2023. That's nearly two-thirds of U.S. crude oil exports, and it's only expected to grow as the port invests $682 million to deepen its waterway[5].

    As we follow the money through the Permian Basin, we see a complex web of power players, deals, and moves that shape today's energy landscape. It's a story of boom and bust, of risk and reward, and of the people who are driving the oil industry forward. Join us next time on Y'all Street as we delve deeper into the world of West Texas oil.
