Hart Energy worked with Clear Rating LLC, a valuation advisory, securities rating agency and ESG analytics firm, as the official ESG analytics and technology provider. Clear Rating provided assessments of nominees using its proprietary evaluation framework.

- For public midstream companies, top performers were Crestwood Equity Partners and MPLX.

- In the category for private E&P companies, Hart Energy recognized PureWest Energy, Sentinel Peak Resources and Tug Hill Operating.
- For private midstream companies, the top performers were Kodiak Gas Services and XRI.
- Private service companies honored were Danos and Milestone Environmental Services.
- In the individual top performer category, the ESG Champion Award went to Allyson Anderson Book, vice president for energy transition with Baker Hughes.
“Energy companies don’t often get credit for their work in these areas,” said Len Vermillion, Hart Energy’s editorial director. “We created these awards to spark much deserved recognition. Measuring ESG progress is a complex endeavor, so we were thrilled to partner with Clear Rating, whose expertise helped ensure high standards for the awards.”
