It’s time to party like it’s 2009!
Last week, Chesapeake Energy – the corporate emblem of the rise and fall of the Oklahoma City renaissance – announced it was merging with Texas-based Southwestern Energy to create the largest natural gas producer in the country.
As a result of the merger, Chesapeake will get a new name and – at least for now – keep a large chunk of its corporate workforce at its largely vacant campus in Oklahoma City.
