Rich Leaves OIPA For Youth Expo

Jeramy Rich, president of the Oklahoma Independent Petroleum Association, has resigned to become executive director of the Oklahoma Youth Expo.

The post previously was held by attorney Justin Whitefield, who died in the crash of his private plane in Arkansas last year.

Rich became president of the OIPA just a year ago, succeeding Mickey Thompson.

OIPA Chairman Harold Hamm said a search committee is at work and hopes to name a successor to Rich by the time the Legislature convenes in early February.
