Donald Trump’s inner circle on energy issues has expanded beyond Continental Resources’ Harold Hamm who was previously identified as a key advisor for the Republican presidential candidate.

Trump’s advisors also include Larry Nichols, chairman emeritus of Oklahoma City-based Devon Energy Corporation and Kathleen Hartnett White of the Texas Public Policy Foundation as well as scholars at the Institute of Energy Research, according to Politico’s Morning Energy newsletter.

While analysts widely consider Hamm to be the most influential in shaping Trump’s energy platform, White could get the nomination for the top spot at the Environmental Protection Agency if Trump wins the presidential election.
