This video, authored by Dr. Brian Piper, addresses whether it is realistic to assume certain jobs in the oil and gas industry will exist in the future in sufficient numbers to make it reasonably probable that workers in those jobs today could continue for the balance of their work-life in the pre-injury scenario.

Dr. Piper is an economist who has been accepted as an expert witness in personal injury and other economic damages cases.
