Finding secure, safe and reliable sources of energy to power world economic growth will be
one of the great challenges of this century. The Harvard University Center for the
Environment invites the Harvard community to take up the challenge by participating in
this ongoing series of discussions.
THE FUTURE OF ENERGY
Spring 2010
Aubrey McClendon, Chairman and CEO, Chesapeake Energy
"Natural Gas: Fueling America's Clean Energy Future"
TODAY
5:00 pm
Harvard University
Science Center, Lecture Hall D
One Oxford Street, Cambridge
New drilling and completion technologies have allowed the U.S. natural gas and oil
industry to develop resources in shale reservoirs that were previously considered
uneconomic. Shale gas has quickly transformed the industry and provided consumers with
reliable sources of supply and the ability to reshape the nation's energy policy.
McClendon will discuss natural gas as the most practical answer to our nation's
growing need for clean energy and reduced dependence on foreign oil.
Aubrey K. McClendon has served as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer since
co-founding Chesapeake Energy in 1989. Chesapeake Energy is now one of the largest
producers of natural gas in the nation and the most active driller of new wells in the
U.S. Headquartered in Oklahoma City, their strategy is focused on discovering, acquiring
and developing conventional and unconventional natural gas reserves onshore in the U.S.,
primarily in the "Big 4" natural gas shale plays: the Barnett Shale of
north-central Texas, the Haynesville Shale of East Texas and northwestern Louisiana, the
Fayetteville Shale of central Arkansas and the Marcellus Shale of the northern Appalachian
Basin.
The Future of Energy lecture series is sponsored by the Harvard University Center for the
Environment with generous support from Bank of America. All of the lectures are free and
open to the public. View detailed lecture information at
