Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that their proposed endeavor was of national importance. The AAO concluded that while the work had substantial merit, its potential benefits did not extend beyond the petitioner's immediate employer and clients to have a broader impact on the oil and gas industry or the U.S. as a whole.
