"I am very excited to work with the Galenfeha team," said Mr. Warren. "Galenfeha is leading the charge for LiFePO4 technology in oil and gas markets. This, along with their new government contracts division and a strengthened nationwide distribution network, positions Galenfeha for significant growth in the coming months. I look forward to helping the company extend its leadership role and continue growing the brand."

As Steward Energy's vice president, Mr. Warren oversees land and regulatory functions, focused in the complex East Texas and North Louisiana oil basins.
