Permian Strategic Partnership Focus

Why Workforce Development?

In 2024, the Permian Basin supported over 862,000 jobs nationwide, according to The Perryman Group.

By 2040, continued industry growth and a shift toward a resident rather than rotational workforce in the Basin will require approximately 185,000 more workers, to meet the needs of other industries and services across the local and regional economy.
