Veteran oilman Robert Price was regaled with stories of dogsledding and adventures in Greenland as a child from his father who served as a military weatherman there during World War II.
Those stories kept the massive, icy North American territory in his mind until this year. After a series of still-pending deals, Price will soon become the CEO of Texas-based Greenland Energy, the first publicly traded company created to drill for oil onshore in Greenland, The first well is tentatively scheduled for next summer.
