Natural Resource Group, LLC Announces the Opening of a Portland, Oregon Office

Posted on: Wednesday, 17 October 2007, 12:00 CDT

Natural Resource Group, LLC (NRG), announces the opening of their Portland, Oregon office, the eighth office to open nationwide since the company's inception in 1992. Headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota, NRG is a leader in providing environmental and public affairs consulting services to the energy industry.

"Establishing an office in Portland advances one of NRG's corporate goals: to offer our expert services quickly and efficiently to our clients," says Portland Office Manager Mike Timpson. "For example, new electric transmission projects in the western United States are utilizing NRG's staff expertise in feasibility studies, combined with our cutting-edge GIS technology, to provide valuable routing data in just a few hours -- a process that otherwise takes weeks. We are pleased to pass these efficiencies directly to our clients."

The NRG staff of scientific and technical experts provides our energy clients comprehensive knowledge ranging from feasibility, permitting and public outreach, to managing air and water quality, operations and maintenance (O&M) compliance, and construction support and inspection. NRG's core client base includes oil and gas pipelines, natural gas exploration, storage and production, liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals and facilities, electric transmission lines, and biofuels facilities.

"NRG's strategic long-term plan involves continued geographic and service expansion nationwide," says Joe Reinemann, President of NRG. "In the past year and a half we have opened three new offices in Charlotte, Baton Rouge, and now Portland. We are also on track to open our Las Vegas office in the spring of 2008. Geographic expansion not only creates internal opportunities for our staff, but as we hire new staff, they are able share their expertise through presentations, lunch-and-learn sessions, and by working together on projects. This creates a deeper pool from which to draw staff and knowledge resources, resulting in a direct benefit to all of our clients across the country."

NRG was founded in 1992 and has distinguished itself from other environmental consulting firms by focusing solely on energy projects. NRG is the market leader in providing public affairs support and environmental permitting and compliance services for thousands of miles of gas, crude oil, and refined products pipelines. NRG has also worked on new and expanded gas storage facilities, including LNG terminals. In addition to oil and gas, NRG is the ethanol industry's leading environmental permitting firm. Air quality and water resource permitting, along with water supply development, form the core of NRG's ethanol and biofuels services. NRG emphasizes high quality and expert service, with experience that is always relevant and attention that is specifically focused. NRG's team of more than 160 consultants serves clients collaboratively from offices in Minneapolis, Houston, Denver, Providence, Charlotte, Baton Rouge, and Portland.
