More than 100 high school students recently put their skills to the test at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Industrial Craft Competition, held at Texas State Technical College.

This event highlights more than competition. It shows the next generation preparing for careers in welding, pipefitting and project management. After months of hands-on training, working with industry mentors and fabricating complex industrial projects, these students stepped into a real-world environment and performed under pressure.

It is great to see young craftsmen and craftswomen rising to the challenge and representing the future of the industry.

Work hard, connect often… and don’t forget to have a little fun along the way ⚾

Our President and COO, Jeremy Osterberger, recently caught up with Tim Pearson of TEAM Inc., who invited him and Aaron Stryk of ExxonMobil for a preseason matchup between the Houston Astros and the Sugar Land Space Cowboys at Daikin Park.

It’s a great reminder that building strong industry relationships doesn’t always happen in a boardroom — sometimes it happens in the stands.

At BIC, we believe meaningful connections drive business forward… and moments like these show that work can be fun, too.

A major investment is advancing the future of sustainable fuels.

Southern Energy Renewables has announced plans for a $1.4B methanol and sustainable fuels facility, a project designed to expand production of low-carbon fuels while supporting the growing global demand for cleaner energy solutions.

The development represents another step forward in the energy transition, demonstrating how large-scale investments in alternative fuels and advanced chemical processing can help reduce emissions while maintaining reliable energy supply chains.

Projects like this highlight the evolving role of the petrochemical and refining industries as they innovate to meet both energy demand and sustainability goals.
