Alignment.
We work for producers —
not traders, not pipelines.
TriStar Producer Services is a premier natural gas marketing firm whose primary objective is to generate the most revenue possible for the natural gas producer.
TriStar was founded by Bart Simmons in 1992. He engendered a culture of grit, humility, integrity, and wisdom through his character-based leadership. In June of 2025 TriStar presumed new ownership. Under new management, those qualities will continue as a guiding measure in its business practices. They will be a mainstay, instilled in the company to provide its producer clients with the service of a championship team. Combined with ingrained fortitude, honesty, and ethics, TriStar stands apart as a premier natural gas marketing company whose primary objective is to create value for the independent producer.
