What Webber does

Webber Research & Advisory is an independent, privately held research and advisory boutique founded in 2019 by Michael Webber, CFA, and Greg Wasikowski, CFA, headquartered in New York with an engineering office in Houston. The firm sells institutional-grade research, technical consulting, and strategic advisory services focused on LNG and energy infrastructure, maritime and logistics, alternative fuels, and carbon economics, serving institutional investors (mutual funds, hedge funds, family offices), project developers (Cheniere, Sempra, QatarEnergy, ExxonMobil, Shell, Chevron, BP, Aramco), EPC contractors (Bechtel, Kiewit), energy services firms (Baker Hughes), and private capital clients.

The core platform is organized into three research franchises: an Equity Research Platform covering LNG, shipping, equipment leasing, utilities, midstream, and renewables; W|EPC, a proprietary project-tracking system that integrates over 2,000 data points and approximately 25 milestones per project with satellite imagery analysis and probability-weighted coverage of 150+ LNG/Regas projects and 200+ LNG carrier destinations; and W|Carbon, which covers LCFS credits, RINs, and other environmental credit derivatives. Adjacent offerings include a quantitative ESG/Corporate Governance Scorecard across 60+ companies, W|EPC Technical Consulting (independent engineering, due diligence, project controls on Primavera P6), and the wholly-owned strategic advisory subsidiary Armistead Street Partners.

Webber monetizes through a mix of recurring quarterly subscriptions (minimum two-quarter commitment, typically priced for 3-seat bundles with bespoke individual pricing), individual report sales ranging from $495 to $3,790, and bespoke professional services through W|EPC Technical Consulting and Armistead Street Partners. Distribution is primarily direct institutional sales supported by a Blue Matrix client portal, secure individualized email links, regular client calls, and selective participation in major industry conferences such as LNG2026 in Doha. The firm holds no external funding, operates as a Delaware LLC, and is reported to have between 1 and 10 employees.
