Before politics, Christopher Allen Wright had a decades-long career in the fossil-fuel business, founding companies such as Pinnacle Technologies and Liberty Energy to provide technical services, including mapping and modeling products, to the oil and natural gas industry as well as hydraulic fracturing (fracking) services to extract shale gas. Wright claimed in 2024 that Liberty Energy, valued at $3 billion, was responsible for nearly 10 percent of total energy production in the United States, including hydraulic fracturing operations that spanned 20 percent of the country’s onshore wells.
