The Petroleum Association of Wyoming (PAW) is a prominent organization that has been serving as the voice of Wyoming's oil and natural gas industry for 50 years. With roots dating back to the establishment of the Rocky Mountain Oil and Gas Association in 1921, PAW has evolved into a strong advocate for the industry, representing both major producers and small-scale operations. Their members account for over 90% of Wyoming's oil and natural gas production, making PAW a significant force in the state's energy sector.
PAW's history is marked by a merger between the Wyoming Oil Industry Committee and the Wyoming Division of RMOGA in 1974, which led to the formation of a more effective organization to represent the industry in Wyoming. Over the years, PAW has expanded its influence and now focuses on state-level issues while collaborating with other associations on federal policies. In addition to advocacy, PAW also emphasizes education and is committed to promoting environmental responsibility within the oil and gas industry.
