Brandon Seale most recently served as President of West Texas Gas Utility until its sale in 2024. In the course of his career as an energy entrepreneur, Brandon has received three Presidential Permits and built two cross-border pipelines, including a 200-mile, 30″ natural gas transportation pipeline from Laredo to Monterrey that largely paralleled the old Camino Real. He drilled the first wells in Mexico operated by Americans since 1938, including the first unconventional shale well in that country’s history (Emergente-1).
Brandon is a member of the Texas Business Leadership Council, alumni of the Texas Lyceum, and a Director of the Texas State Historical Association. His podcasts, “A History of Oil in Mexico” and “A New History of Old Texas” have been downloaded more than 750,000 times and may have helped discover the biggest, bloodiest battlefield in Texas history. He was a co-founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Texas Journal of Oil, Gas, and Energy Law at the University of Texas, where he earned his MBA and Law degrees.
