A startup focused on helping American producers find new markets for their raw materials is launching a natural gas desk.

Mickey is a digital trading platform looking to streamline the trading and logistics process for small- and medium-sized producers, allowing them to compete against the big players like Shell, Chevron, and Exxon.

It can be difficult or not economical for a smaller, local natural gas producer to compete nationally or in international markets without dedicated in-house resources or an agent, so Mickey can do it for them. It says its technology and business model means it’s cheaper than other agents.

NTD asked RJ Hayes, the company’s head of energy, why now is a good time to start.
