Peter Tertzakian
Peter has devoted his career to energy, first as a geophysicist, then as an economist and investment strategist.
He's written two bestsellers — A Thousand Barrels a Second and The End of Energy Obesity — and in 2020 launched his new project, energyphile.org, and book, The Investor Visit and Other Stories: Disruption, Denial and Transition in the Energy Business.
Peter created Energyphile to encourage people to think about the energy business in a whole new way.
In 2015 Peter was seconded to the Royalty Review Panel for the province of Alberta — the world’s 8th largest producer of oil and gas — where he led the redesign of the fiscal policy. In 2016 he was inducted into the Alberta Petroleum Hall of Fame and in 2021, he joined the Institute of Sustainable Finance Advisory Board and became the Chair of the board of Contemporary Calgary Art Gallery.
