Jen Psaki (Biden) says companies have 9,000 oil fields to drill in...

Book mark that link and USE IT AGAINST THE LEFT HERE...........It documents Biden attacking oil
 


The Interior Department approved about 2,500 permits to drill on public and tribal lands in the first six months of the year, according to an Associated Press analysis of government data. That includes more than 2,100 drilling approvals since Biden took office January 20.


And yet, the White House is on pace to hand out more oil and gas drilling permits this year than any under President Trump and the most since George W. Bush left the Oval Office.

But as one person on this site mentioned, Biden first stopped 32,000 permits and now is issuing some.
 
What Biden and Newsome want is the Carter days of gasoline shortages. Remember those days? We may have both shortages for gasoline and electricity since Democrats refuse to build nuclear plants.
You meant Nixon and the era of streaking during the energy crisis..
 
Why do Democrats never make sense? Psaki's answer to high prices is to buy electric cars at $60,000 a pop. The fact that green energy is 15-20 years from being developed doesn't help with inflation today. But, it's what they want because Congress won't give them Build, Back, Better. So, they raise taxes on people through inflation. When will Biden give the permits to drill?

Bi-Den has no choice but to go full-blown hydrocarbon. Even the eurotrash Green Party is caving in on that.

The Lostralians once elected a GreenHead Prime Minister. As soon as he saw the economic and political consequences of going Green, he backed down from that unscientific Stone Age nature-worship policy.
 
I see that a few leftists lie about the "permits" and "Leases" since it isn't that simple as pointed out by a 30 year Oil expert:

Watts Up With That?

Jen, Joe… Is it 9,000 leases or 9,000 permits that oil companies are allegedly sitting on?​

Guest “Do they really think we’re that stupid?” by David Middleton

Excerpt:

This is the second sequel to Democrat Senators Demand That Oil Companies Increase Production. The first sequel dealt with Jen “Circle Back” Psaki’s blatantly false claim that “There are 9,000 approved oil leases that the oil companies are not tapping into currently”. Now, Brandon, himself has tossed in another lie…

U.S. producers “have 9,000 permits to drill now — they can be drilling right now, yesterday last week, last year,” President Joe Biden said Tuesday. “They have 9,000 to drill onshore that are already approved. So let me be clear, let me be clear: they are not using them for production now.” The comments came a day after the American Petroleum Institute, the biggest U.S. oil lobby group, accused the administration of “misusing facts” when it comes to federal leasing data.

Do they not know the difference between a lease and a permit? Or do they just toss these words and numbers out, assuming no one will bother to check them out?

Shale Giants EOG, Devon Hold Most Untapped U.S. Drilling Permits​



(Bloomberg) -- Shale giants EOG Resources Inc. and Devon Energy Corp. are sitting on thousands of federal drilling permits, many of which could be used to produce oil from the prolific Permian basin as a U.S. ban on Russian oil increases demand for other crude.

EOG and Devon hold more permits than other company, according to a Bloomberg analysis of federal onshore permitting data, but neither plans to grow production beyond 5% even as U.S. oil futures top $120 a barrel and global markets face historic disruptions. That dissonance is at the center of tension between the U.S. shale industry — which argues it needs long-term government support before it can sustainably raise production — and the Biden administration — which says oil companies should use up the more-than 9,000 drilling permits they already have before asking for further concessions.

The war of words between the two has intensified as the U.S. moved to ban Russian oil imports in response to the nation’s invasion of Ukraine. U.S. producers “have 9,000 permits to drill now -- they can be drilling right now, yesterday last week, last year,” President Joe Biden said Tuesday. “They have 9,000 to drill onshore that are already approved. So let me be clear, let me be clear: they are not using them for production now.” The comments came a day after the American Petroleum Institute, the biggest U.S. oil lobby group, accused the administration of “ misusing facts” when it comes to federal leasing data.

“Just because you have a lease doesn’t mean there’s actually oil and gas in that lease, and there has to be a lot of development that occurs between the leasing and then ultimately permitting for that acreage to be productive,” said Mike Sommers, chief executive of the API.

But a review of federal drilling permits shows that half of unused onshore permits are for acreage in New Mexico’s Lea and Eddy counties, part of the Permian Basin that’s responsible for most of U.S. oil output. EOG held the most permits there, followed by Devon and Occidental Petroleum Corp.
