New SGA Chair Focuses on Evolving Role of Natural Gas

摘要

Jimmy Staton, president and CEO of Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline, brings a wealth of experience - almost 37 years of it - to his term as Southern Gas Association (SGA) Board Chair. After graduating with a petroleum engineering degree from Louisiana State University (LSU), he had the opportunity to work in a variety of businesses, from interstate pipeline companies to gas distribution to the electric utility and electric transmission business. Staton readily admits his real passion is the natural gas industry, though, and has headed Southern Star for four-and-a-half years. He is grateful for the opportunity to head up the SGA Board this year. Southern Star is an interstate pipeline company that serves customers, distribution customers, electric utilities and industrials throughout the Midwest.
