Trump will go full steam ahead with drilling and mining in US

Permits to drill, work over, or perform other operations are available with an FOIA and… somewhere else on the website. I’m not 100% of the address. I’ll grab it for you tomorrow.

Edit: any process to extract usable products from oil and gas generally result in at least some CO2 emissions. I can’t say anymore about their claimed process without knowing the chemistry or, at minimum, an “Idiots Guy” on the subject.

 

In spite of all the drill baby drill rhetoric and the supposed Biden war on fossil fuels economic forces appear to be taking over here.

Key Points

• U.S. oil production is expected to decline in 2026, marking the first year-on-year decrease in roughly a decade, outside of the pandemic.
  
  
• Shale companies are slowing production because of low crude prices and pressure to return cash to shareholders.
  
  
• The Permian Basin’s output growth is slowing, and other large fields haven’t recovered since 2020, suggesting an end to shale dominance
  

 

So low prices on a global commodity shuts down US production due to lack of profit.

Who knew.

Math is hard

 

I was going to reply but an earlier poster nailed it.

 

This is what I think of every time I see a post from Bill

 

Any update on this?
