“Your role at Midenergy Operating LLC is that of Norbert Csaszar, President,
Midenergy Operating LLC
President. What does your day look like?”
A
s President my typical day is spent ensuring
first that normal in-house operations are
being monitored and progressing. After that
I typically attend to planning future operations and
proofing reports to partners and working interest
owners. Often I will be involved in evaluating and
negotiating new asset acquisitions. Finally, I
typically have documents and communications to
review regarding our numerous non-operated oil
and gas interests.
Midenergy Operating is primarily responsible for
operating a number of oil and gas assets in the
Permian Basin. In addition, Midenergy Operating
manages a variety of non-operated interests in the
same areas. The staff at Midenergy Operating is
indispensable as they work on all aspects of the
operations every day and it remains a 24/7
endeavour. We are lucky to have very experienced
and dedicated staff members in Midland.
Typically, Midenergy and its affiliates will have half
a dozen active projects in any given month.
