My career passion has been Crude Oil, Natural Gas and Underground Natural Gas Storage. My father, Jack Elenbaas, was a pioneer in underground gas storage beginning in 1947. I am the fourth generation in the Elenbaas family that has worked in energy (coal, crude oil, natural gas, and underground gas storage) since 1907.
